...spend a WHOLE lot more time on here than they ever did on facebook?

I've never bothered spending much time on facebook or any other forum/social networking site...most of my friends on fb think i have dropped off the face of the earth.

But then MFP happened to me...and now I feel like I almost live on here.

    Yeah, FB has kind of lost its luster for me so I'm on here, actually accomplishing something worth while now.

    I get on here first before I even log into Facebook! Definitely spend more time here then I do on Facebook these days.

    I've been thinking a lot about this lately and yes I am obsessed with MFP now. Actually I've been looking for a reason to just delete facebook. And since the new changes recently I notice people are much more careful about what they are posting so it isn't as fun anymore. Now all they need on here is a chat feature and like button and it would be even more awesome.

    Family has been after me for a long time to get on facebook. I have always refused and they make fun of me. Now I'm on MFP for several hours a day and, well, they make fun of me :laugh:

    Yeah. I'm pretty addicted to this site. Still haven't figured out if this is a good thing or bad thing.

    Definitely. I think being able to check on postings and hold discussions about fitness related issues is helpful. On fb, I'm afraid to even admit that I'm trying to lose weight. I've failed so many times, I just don't want to say anything until I change my avatar one hundred or so pounds from now and my friends can say "Hey, where's the rest of you?" Until then, it's easier to post on here what is going on in my life...

    I think I need help. I get up in the morning... check MFP.... check facebook... go back to MFP....

    ... Eat breakfast and log lunch... MFP...

    .... on break at work... check MFP.... (got to make sure what I logged it what I actually ate)

    .... when I get home from work... MFP.... (have to see who worked out...any new posts I should be aware of)

    .... after working out.... MFP....(gotta log it! might as well check everything else too....)

    ... oh got to log dinner! ... MFP.....

    ...before bed...check MFP.... check facebook... go back to MFP....

    Same as above. I should probably be going out to exercise more.

    I like it here. Lots of good people who have similar life goals. My FB page is far less personal for me as there are family and coworkers there that I prefer to keep in the dark about my personal nutritional goals.

    I've never had a Facebook or MySpace page!

    But I am certainly going to need a support group for my MFP addiction.
