I am really too new to have an opinion I suppose but so far I very much prefer logging and the support I have received on MFP. I am curious as to how the rest of you more seasoned MF'rs feel.:flowerforyou:

    MF support site SUCKS. I really enjoy using MFP. I wouldn't have been anywhere near as successful, if I had not had MFP. Good luck!!:flowerforyou:

    Medifast needs an app I would probably use it more...but yep I've logged on like 4 times n almost 4 months

    I completely agree. I venture over there when I'm searching for something really medifast-specific. But for the logging and support I love it here at MFP. Love all my MFP friends!!! I wish MF had an app too. That would be helpful. :D

    Oh yeah, MFP and the MF Facebook page are both so helpful.
  • I didn't even know MF had a site like this. But, I do enjoy MFP.

    Question- I had my first day off the plan and wanted to see what if any experience/advice is available from you guys. I've lost 13 lbs in 3 weeks but had a weekend in the car with the family visiting Crater Lake.. I'm back on, but was wondering if it takes 3 days again to get into ketosis?

    From what I've read from other MFers, it's different for everyone. I usually get a headache the next day after I've gone off plan, but that's it. I really can't tell any difference between when I'm in ketosis and I'm not!

    Regarding the OP, I have a couple of groups on the MF boards that I try to keep up with, but I really like logging into MFP to keep track of everything. I just started really making friends on MFP. I didn't used to post on the boards because I was still posting on the Weight Watchers boards. I still post to one, even though I've been doing MF since June, just because I've made friends there over the last few years.

    Hi Ladies, hope all of you are doing well!

    To answer the question, I prefer MFP for social interaction and food logging. I've been on this site for over a year and I love my MFP friends. I get a lot of support here.

    I do visit MF website once a day because there is loads of informaion especially on the disscusion board. Its really helpful for newbies like me. Plus I like looking at the success stories and recipes. So I actually dig both sites.

    I went off plan Saturday and I can tell I'm back into ketosis because my breath stinks. Especially during the night and in the morning. I know that sounds crazy but on MF site they talk a lot about the bad taste you get in your mouth when you body is in ketosis. Sometime I get a slight headache too.

    Hope this helps:)
