    Don't laugh, but I was part of the 90% of girls who were dieting at 12, so I saw this website when calorie counting. I had an account, but quit. 6 years later, I'm back. Now, I'm 18 ahaha.

    I told my wife I wanted to lose weight three months ago and she told me about this app she had found.

    The rest (and the weight) is history.

    I found it as an app on my first Android phone. (I now have it on my new phone, too.)

    My former personal trainer actually set up my account with his cell phone. He wanted to see what I was eating. At first I was a little pissed but honestly it was the best thing that he ever did for me. This site became my life line to better health. I no longer have the trainer but I will have this site forever.

    A youtube friend of mine mentioned it on her video. I don't know if she still come here but I never lost weight before coming here and I've tried EVERYTHING! I was on my way to WLS but when that didn't work out this was my plan B. Haven't looked back since that's why I shout out MFP on all of my videos!

    I overheard a few co-workers talking about losing weight and one of them was telling them about a website she uses. I didn't catch the name of it, so I later emailed her and asked for it.

    A friend I go walking with told me about it. She doesn't use it, but her husband does and he lost a bunch of weight, so I downloaded the app for my phone. A month later I found out there were profiles and walls and forums. I kind of think I shouldnt have found that out. lol it's my new facebook. speaking of, I should go check my facebook and see how people on there are doing...

    Was using another app for fewer than 24 hours when a colleague told me she'd been using MFP and loved the database. I took a quick look and that was all I needed.

    Totally by accident here. I was bored playing on my new phone(almost 1 1/2 years ago) and was looking under health since new years was coming up. Found this site, loved it, loved the people and now I've been on here since december 2010. What's your story?

    Was 6 months ago. Can't remember that far back.

    Back in the middle of January I began my weight loss regimen after consulting with a weight loss clinic and the doctor associated and they suggested I try logging my foods, gave me a suggested calorie range to stay within every day, and initially I was going to write everything down every day but I checked the app store on my iphone and came across the MFP app, saw it had good reviews, and signed up. It really has helped me with logging my food, exercise, and water and sometimes in the forums I learn new things to try out to further help me. It was actually all the gym-related threads I saw here on MFP that got me to sign up at the Y near me and it's been great.
