Anyone else out there who found themselves spending a ridiculous amount of time on FB....but has replaced that addiction with MFP??? At least it's time well spent now! :)

I love this site! All of you are so wonderful!

    Ditto!

    And if I'm not on MFP on the computer then I'm on it on my iPhone!

    But I'm 'meeting' some great & inspirational people and really enjoying my weight-loss journey!

    THANK YOU EVERYONE!!!

    I never utilized my fb account the way i do MFP. This site is awesome as well as the people on here. If these forums were on my phone - I'd be in trouble :-)

    Not quite as bad as fb - YET. If I could get the forums on the android app, then it would be as bad, if not worse! But I don't always get access to the computer, which makes it difficult to get in here, but yeah... guilty!!

    I don't have a facebook (I'm probably the only one in the world without one) but to me MFP is my facebook. I love this site the support and motivation I get here is all I need. :love: . Thanks to each and every person on this awesome website.

    This is EXACTLY what happened with me too. What a better addiction though - something healthy rather than a sometimes gossip filled social network.

    me too!

    I also used to play a bunch of games on there... but finding myself too busy with MFP or actually exercising to play them, So ive been deleting games. I used to play as much as 7 or 8 games... now i play 2 (and no where near as interested as i used to be)

    I am guilty of the same thing. It is terrible when it is a slow day on both. Fortunately my job requires a lot of data pulls and I have time to read posts while exporting the data.

    I too have become MFP obsessed...leaving FB still around, but not as much as before!

    I have!!!! I still check FB but its less and less everyday. Plus, people like to fight on FB, so I like coming here to talk with people who actually have goals in their lives! I spend about 3 or 4 hrs a day logged in to MFP (not all at once but 3 or 4 times a day)
