I can click and read on here for hours. I guess the good part is when you are busy on here, you aren't eating a bunch of snacks beacuse you're bored!

    Especially when people post stuff like this on the boards, just to entertain themselves

    You know you got a problem when your workout is delayed by 1+ hours due to wasting time on here. Been doing that more and more lately. Or when you log in real quick to log some food, and spend a half hour reading, commenting, etc.

    I need some MFP methadone.

    Guilty as charged, your honor...I used just the iPhone app until about 2-3 months ago and once I logged onto the website and made some friends, it was all she wrote. Gotta keep up with the MFPeeps...
