What has fitnesspal got against us brits ?

Ohhhhhhhhh the frustration of having to sign up to a state in California just to join mfp ! It wouldnt accept a UK postcode and made me say that I ;live in a place full of sunshine and gorgeous people..............no matter, when I am a little less chunky maybe I will visit the sunshine state.............happy days :)

Love and less calories to all the new members :)

    Hahaha! And you chose Beverly Hills? Awesome!

    I had no idea MFP had this problem. Sorry MFP is so ethnocentric... only us Americans want to get fit I guess ;)

    Did you sign up on the app or website. It recognised my postcode as it stated on my profile england. I think I signed up on the app.

    Well - studies have shown we USED to be the tallest in the world - us Americans..... NOW? You really want to know?? Here it comes ..... we are the fattest. I think that might be why they assume only us "FAT" Americans would use my MFP. Jk JK

    Make's you think though.......

    I live in CO - in the Rocky Mountains. We have a really hardcore fitness population. Cyclists training for the olympics, fighters, strong man contenders, iron man runners .... and more, come here to train because of the altitude. So I am with you - maybe when I am fitter - I will leave my house. It's awful feeling so --- dumpy, around those people!

    Anyways..... Good Luck losing Ladies.

    Sorry you can't be true to your UK residence. Hopefully they will ammend that soon! Maybe click the feedback link and leave a suggestion? :)

    I AM from the Sunshine state. Raised in San Diego, now living in Palm Springs. Trust me, we're not all pretty and fit ;-) . And actually, I'm the palest of the cousins and the rest of them all live up in Washington State!

    I can't recall MFP asking about where I come from... maybe I need to check my profile to figure that I am maybe posting from Alaska or something?
