in Chit-Chat
It was recommended to me by a friend who uses it for tracking food. She's totally healthy, at a great weight, and in great shape (runs marathons).

Curious how the rest of you found it.

    I was looking up calories in different junk foods for a health class project on google and this popped up. I've used it ever since:smile:

    A friend is enthusiastically using the MFP site and recommended it to me via Facebook. I am so grateful she did :)

    HA! I don't remember how I found it- surfing I guess for fitness/health sites. But I'm glad I did find it - it's no wonder I've been fighting this so long, I'VE BEEN DOING EVERYTHING WRONG! lol and also alone - I'm glad I found MFP & the support system (and the food/exercise journal is awesome!)

    A columnist for the New York Times wrote an article about how he lost weight (I think 60-80 lbs in a year or so) and started setting fitness goals and the community-based approach was the key....he actually recommended another site too....something more fitness (less nutrition, diet or none)....as the two sites he liked.. SO glad I read it when I did!!

    A lot of the folks on the C25K forum used MFP tickers, and I wanted a ticker too. Then I started actually using the site, and the rest is history!

    I was pointed here by a friend (who has since stopped using MFP).... not sure she was that serious anyway.

    I actually found the site before the app.

    My dietacin recommended it as a way to track my food habits. I don't have the best handwriting and i allways thought a food jorunal would be way to much work. MFP makes it so easy and it's great to know that there are others whoa re going through the same issues i am.
