Facebook sucks so I'm checking this out

I am basically stepping off Facebook because 1) my friends don't want to see me with my shirt off and 2) they just aren't supportive. So, I'm checking out MFP to see what it's like. Hope to help some people, make some supportive friends and get some encouragement back in return.

Send me a friend request if interested. I don't know how much I'll be on here....but I'm gonna do my best.

    I happen to appreciate shirtless photos. I think I speak for most women when I say that.

    ^^Agreed
    Why on earth would they not want to see you with your shirt off?

    lol true. I guess the vast majority of people on fb DONT want to hear about someone working out, spending time at the gym, buying cute workout gear, running a marathon etc....

    Couldnt agree more! ;)
  • I don't have prob with my FB friends except for my relatives there. I once posted my pics on FB showing my abs & while some friends are supportive but my relatives & others who saw it hated it. While I didn't care but still I felt bad that those people who are supposed to support me are the ones who make me feel bad. I only use FB for the sake of the very few people (family excluded) who are dear to me but otherwise I love MFP.

    By the way I also love shirtless guys :P

    Yeah I had to switch all my fitness talk here.

    FB is pissed that Im getting sexy, have my dream job now, a great apartment and live in the coolest city on earth while hitting PRs every month.

    I learned from the facebook thread on here today that people hate successful facebook friends.

    Let's put it this way..MFP is the only place I can discuss my weight and receive absolutely no judgement.calls. It helps that everyone here is in the same boat, that is trying to improve their health. So, if you want to submit pics of you without a shirt, please do so. Just don't expect me to reciprocate! Add me as a friend, if you would like and can tolerate a warped sense of humor!

    Be careful what you ask for ... I might end up posting a picture of me shirtless one day ... and I'm not at the after stage. :bigsmile:

    when you 'bump', it adds the thread to the list of
    "My Topics", so you can find it again.............................

    I agree, my FB friends don't want to see pics of me that I can post here, nor do they want to hear me talk about food, bodybuilding, or anything else fitness related for that matter.

    I'm there too!!

    I've totally stopped adding my fitness stuff to FB because people just don't get it over there and whether they're trying to be unsupportive or not, that's just how it is because we are doing something that they aren't (and some are jealous of that).

    I say welcome!!

    I agree, those who are benefiting from MFP, facebook is not interesting for them anymore. I come in the same category, facebook friends only *Like* things and not much interaction but here MFPers post comments and encourage which is always welcomed:)
