Have joined MFP less than a week ago and I feel like I spend so much time on here. Tracking calories, messaging and reading message boards. How much time do YOU spend on MFP a day?
Feel free to add me - I am on here alot so can help provide motivation :)

    I know exactly what you mean! My work is pretty boring so I easily get distracted reading this website!
    I think it might also be because we're new. I have been on here for 5/6 weeks now and realise that a lot of forum topics get repeated, so there isn't as much to read as in the first 2 weeks.

    It's not a bad thing to be addicted too though :) Healthier than chocolate!

    Totally with you on this one. I probably spend about half my day on here, if truth be told. Work is pretty slow right now and don't have a whole to do. Plus, some of the topics that people talk about on here is absolutely hilarious!!
    I hardly ever get on FB anymore. It seems like such a waste of time these days.

    By the way, will add you. Need all the motivation I can get :smile:

    I'm on here pretty much all the time, reading pages and pages of stuff. I like to learn, but I may have a slight addiction. :ohwell: :smile:

    Oh yes, that's me! There's nothing on TV and my book isn't that interesting and it's too early to go to bed. MFP has more people on it commenting and doing things than there are on Facebook...

    usually it'll be an hour or so a day, plus tracking calories on my phone whilst at work. Recently as I have been on holiday it's been far more. Probably 3 hours a day minimum. I've learnt loads, but that hasn't stopped me putting on 4lbs over Christmas.....

    I am pretty addicted!

    I go between facebook, MFP and a few other sites and it can keep me entertained for hours!

    Sometimes I even read the message boards while I'm on the exercise bike lol

    well it certainly is a good distraction to get away from food and it is helping us work towards our goals of a healthier lifestyle. i think i would spend at least two hours a day on here at the moment. going on holiday early january and there will be no internet! how will i cope??? lol

    I used to live on here, but after awhile I stepped away and went to normal life. Today is my first day back. Feels nice.
