    MFP... People actually care here
    I agree, on facebook I could post a thousand status updates and not have one persom comment. Also I am sick and tired of ffarmville request I will explode

    I think sites like MFP will become more and more influential over time. Some of us want smaller communities to deal with certain issues in our lives. I don't need a friend from HS commenting on my workouts and food diary every day, which is exactly what would happen on Facebook. A community of everybody isn't a community.

    I like both and usually have one or both open. MFP might have a slight edge though, FB doesn't help me lose weight!
  • MFP, I actually deleted my FB around the time I started here It was too much drama & negative ppl that are supposed to be your friends, but just seem jealous when they see you doing good. So I rather share this experience with supportive & encouraging ppl(: Ill probably be back to fb once I reach my goal weight with new friends & deleting some old ones. Lol

    I joined mfp in October of 2011 and by November I was only logging into fb about once every couple of months.

    MFP!!
    Cant be doing with facebook now, and all the "drama" that goes with it! We're all striving for the same goals on here, and what someone is watching on TV just doesnt interest me now,

    I like both. There is a lot of drama sometimes on FB, but I ignore it. Most people on there don't know I am losing weight and trying to get healthy. I do have a lot of supportive friends and family on there. On here I like the support I get and learn new things about health and weight loss.
    I like keeping in touch with friends and family that live all over the United States. If I am home, I usually have both pages open and will comment more on MFP than FB.
