    In a van down by the river.... eating deep fried Twinkies.
    Crying alone in my bedroom eating cheetos.

    ^^ yes!

    Without MFP I'd still be in complete denial about my health and weight. I would be eating the way I 'used to' eat - easily consuming 4000+ calories a day of drive-thru food, knowing that I was eating "a lot" but not grasping that I needed to halve my intake. I'd be without some great, supportive, wonderful, understanding friends. I'd feel alone, instead of feeling connected to others who have 100 or more pounds to lose.

    I def would not be logging my intake. Now I have MFP on my Mac, Laptop, Kindle, and Droid phone!

    I would be 10lbs heavier and I would have totally pigged out at a fundraiser/dinner I was at tonight. I did bad enough but I know I would have done a LOT worse!

    I would be continuing to feel hopeless and eating my emotions rather than creating schemes and new foods to get the tastey treats that I want without the BS in them. (IE: going to 711 and buying 3 different Reese's peanut butter products instead of inventing my version of a Reese's protein shake, BTW, it was MIND BLOWING!)

    FAILED pure and simple!! I was manually logging my food and knew I would need to add the calorie intake to that but at that time just didn't have a clue about any of it. Lucky I stumbled on the app on my phone and it all went from there, the stress of carrying aorund a book and remembering to write my food/drinks in it was gone. I could now do it without putting myself out and the calculations were done for me. I've spread my MFP love to a number of friends

    I'd have a nibble of some cheese

    I'd have a bite of some cheese

    I'd stuff a lump of cheese in my mouth and absorb it

    I'd set up an intravenous drip and feed cheese into my veins.

    I don't think I'd lose much weight.

    My name is Kap I am a cheese aholic - feel free to connect

    I was losing weight on another site but it did not have the community aspect. I would still be losing but I was not enjoying it at all. Now i enjoy the interaction, get great tips, and learn more from the other people on the site that i could have imagined.

    I would probably be at Subway, thinking I was making the "healthy" choice :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:


    Without MFP, I'd be winging it.

    Undereating if I'm honest. MFP and the lovely people on here have helped me understand that dieting is not about eating as little/as few calories as possible, its about changing your lifestyle and how you approach food and exercise as a whole.
