Does anybody else use pinterest? It's basically like a big "corkboard" where you can "pin" pictures from around the internet that inspire you.

I've created a "Motivation" pin board where I post quotes and pictures of all things related to fitness and health...and whenever I don't feel like going to the gym, or I want to go to McDonalds, LOL, I just look at that pinboard for inspiration to stay on track! You can pin images from anywhere on the internet, and there are so many great inspirational quotes, pictures, and tools on there!

Anyone else using this as a tool in this journey?

    Love, love, love, love, love Pinterest! Did I mention how much I love it? I have several vision boards - one for getting in shape, recipes, fashion apparel, holidays.....its a great site. I've printed many of the motivational fitness posters to hang on my bathroom mirror, made several recipes, and some crafts for my daugthers class & around the house. Be Warned - its addicting! But so much fun.

    No, but it sounds GREAT!
    Anything that you can use to keep you motivated is something I see value in.

    Keep up the good work!

    Good Morning,

    I've heard great things about pininterest, but I've also heard you have to be invited? Is that true... Would you mind sharing information on this? Also, I'm a new member here as of yesterday afternoon.. Looking for friends and motivation!

    Thanks so much!

    Good Morning,

    I've heard great things about pininterest, but I've also heard you have to be invited? Is that true... Would you mind sharing information on this? Also, I'm a new member here as of yesterday afternoon.. Looking for friends and motivation!

    Thanks so much!

    I just "was invited". You basically just go to their website http://pinterest.com/
    Request an invitation
    They email you with info of how to join......it took a couple of days for me to get that email.
    And that's it!

    I just started mine yesterday, so am quite the novice with it..............haven't "pinned" anything yet, but there are hundreds of cool recipes, home decorating ideas, and all kinds of neat stuff to look at. A fun time waster :bigsmile:

    I'm pitifully addicted to Pinterest. I use it mostly for recipes, but can waste tons of time looking at everything!
