I just got an email from a writer at my local paper wanting to conduct a phone interview about MFP!!! If anyone has anything specific they'd like me to share about MFP, please leave a comment, and I'll include as much as I can. Here is the message I received:

"Thanks for responding to our message about online calorie counters. Would you have a few minutes of time at some point before Monday for a quick phone interview (or we can do it by e-mail, too … either way) to talk about things like how you first heard about the site you use, why you like using it, why you don’t like using it, what some of your favorite features and functions of the site are and what your overall experience with the site has been like?"

Thank you in advance for your help, and I'll definitely include a link to the article when it's published!

    I have met some amazing people on this site that provide me with a support group. We motivate each other when one of us is down and doesn't want to work out. We pick each other up off the ground when we a facing those internal screams of "You're fat and a failure." We are all in the same boat and understand each other perfectly. I am so thankful for all my MFP friends. Without them, I know I would fail.

    I love MFP!!! I like that we can track calories but also have friends to give me the needed kick. If I see my friends are working out more, then I am motivated to do more. I like that there are so many different foods listed to choose from. The recipe calculator is awesome! I can go on for days! The app sinc's with the site, and there is a bar code scanner as well. I have lost 29 since I have been here. and I know I couldn't have done that if this site wasn't so easy to use and FREE!!!

    MFP *by far* has the most supportive community in an online capacity. It's a very simple, clean, easy to use site that can change lives for the better. It's like a weight loss credit union. :-)

    It's a great tool to use to keep you motivated and accountable, especially if you have friends on here that support you along the way to a healthier you. The only downfall is that the people in charge treat the users like children...no bueno.
