I think I am officially addicted to this place. When a friend of mine turned me on to this site, I signed up thinking int would be a cool way to track my calories and lose some weight, which it has! That was in January and I have lost about 20 pounds, half way to my 40 pound goal. What I didnt expect was the awesome people here and new friends I have met along the way. Some of you I feel like I have known a long time and although we have never met face to face, I feel like we would be great friends in person. I have almost 200 of you now and you all just seem to go out there and kick serious butt on a regular basis. Its good to see the great motivators out there, helping each other out. Total strangers, yet great friends at the same time.

anyone else feelin the love?

    I keep telling myself that I don't really need MFP. I could quit at any time. I can too; right?

    I am majorly addicted. I find myself being more motivated and motivating because of all the great people on this site. I can't get thru a day without making sure that all my friends are sticking to their goals. Its been 35 days and ive lost 6 pounds, which may not seem like a lot but when you are already a size 2 and only 4'11", 6 pounds is ALOT. I can honestly say that I couldnt have done that without the people here. P90x and Insanity didnt even give me these results until I incorporated this support system

    I am hopelessly devoted to MFP. I use to log into FB @ least 5 times a day. And ever since I became a MFP junky, I may get on FB once a day. At that is just to change my status.

    A toast, to MFP: :drinker:

    Agree! Love me some MFP & the people I've met on here! People here (including you Carl!) are so positive & motivating! If I'm ever down or doubting myself y'all are here to lift me back up! Not many people in my "real" world that will...THANK YOU!

    Absolutely!!! MFP is amazing! As are the friends I have made here. The support and genuine feeling of mutual respect and "love" are what keeps me going day after day. I miss MFP when I can't go on, even if I just go on to see how everyone is doing. I don't always have the time to comment on everyone, but I do try and I am sad when I see people deactivate their membership.

    Three cheers for my MFP family!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Together we are stronger than one!!!!!!
