What's the history of MFP?
How long has it been around? Has anyone been with it since the beginning? Why was it started?
I'm just curious.
Why a fitness site?
I totally appreciate it, whatever the reasons or impetus.
Does anyone out there know????

    Well, Mike is the creator. He explains on his profile why he created it. :smile:

    Here is his profile
    http://www.myfitnesspal.com/mike

    I think it's been around since 2006 or 2007.

    Hope this helps a little! :happy:

    Well.............I too myself was curious about this some time ago. Mike "the creator" has been here since 2005 so I'm guessing that's when it started. (Doesn't take much for this blonde to catch on.:wink: )

    I have yet to find posts dating that far back though.:ohwell:
