edited September 29 in Success Stories
Sometimes I feel like I am so addicted to this site. The great friends I have made here and when I am away I feel like something is missing. I know that MFP is all for making an healthier lifestyle with eating choices and exercise but man I have gained so much in the short amount of time I have been here. Plus the perks of losing weight to excites me. I assume its because I tried motivating and tracking what I do thru FB and go not support there..Once I was put on to this site it was like A DREAM come true for me. Does anyone else feel this way and do you feel the support here is so much better than you have recieved any where else...

    We are all here pursuing the same goal (health) and even if we go about it in different ways, we talk the same language, have the same fears and frustration, and understand each others limitations (to a point, at least ;-)). That makes it easier for us to support each other and be there for each other. I think it's nice.

    I feel the same way. I love FB because I am so far away from all of my family and old friends, but I rather this cite more. I have some rather great people on here and the support is outstanding. I have been on here for 5 weeks now and have lost 7 pounds and a total of 3.5 inches.. slow progress, but it is progress none the less.

    SexyCook, you took the words right out of my mouth! I love it here. This is just such a different weight loss experience from my previous attempts, and it's much more effective, I think. I don't plan on leaving. :heart:

    Yep! There is no other place that we can rant and rave about how awfully hard it was to not eat out of a candy bowl on someone's desk at work or how great it feels when someone says... "have you lost weight? This seems to be the number one place where people actually care if you do an 800 calorie work out! The support is amazing and we all keep each other going.

    If I'm not on MFP forums or my food diary, I'm talking about my diet or talking about the MFP forums! lol. My wife is going nuts but I think she likes the progress I'm making.

    Sign me up on the list! I must talk about the site alot my daughter has joined now ; ) I have friends here in such a short amount of time to pray and laugh with and also to sit with in the hard times too. The forums have been wonderful. So many write the things I think about or would love to hear. Mike is awesome to keep up with the bandwidth and no charge at all! I could give him a hi-five, snoopy dance and a big hug! He amazes me to have come up with this program and to offer this to all of us with a giving heart. Thank you Mike and all MPF members ; )



    edited cause I can never type worth a hoot!
  • I will let you know how I feel about it in a few weeks. I am not even a week in yet. I do use another one too but this one is good for on the go. I'm just excited to see how its going to work with me. I only need to lose about 20 pounds at the very max if that. But those pounds are stubborn and I have to keep my head down to get them off. Then its going to be good keeping them off.

    I say 20 pounds as if its nothing. At the moment I am 26 on the BMI scale and 25 is at the top end of normal. I have always been twittering there and people thin its ok because I am tall. Its not though! People think I am obsessed with weight but its not that....they do not understand. I like being fit and looking good at the same time.
