Could you have done it without MFP? Say thanks here!

SimonLondon

Without this site there is absolutely no way I could have achieved what I've done. This site and the community with it have completely changed my life and I have never been so content.

I just wanted to say I couldn't not have done it without you and you have a VERY BIG thank you from me!

Well said. I can only add: 'Ditto'.

vicidoesstuff

Being accountable not only to myself but to others on the same journey is definitely keeping me on track. If I could hug MFP, I would!

I've tried to lose weight many times and have never had this success. This site allows me to stay focused and on track. Sometimes it just takes having the right tool and that is something they have managed to do very well here. Thank you MFP and all the members for your support and sharing your journeys.

I agree 100%

I have consistently worked out for years...and was just maintaining my weight

Until I started using this sight and realizing just how much I was overeating....thats when I started seeing results

You learn something new everyday

i totaly agree with you. i have tried many times on my own, but only to have given up by lunch time. i can't thank mfp and members enough. for me it doesn't feel like a diet. thank you everyone.

That is certainly true for me too! Before I started using this site I had slooooowly lost 5 lbs by using portion control. Now, I have at my fingertips (iPhone app) the tool to not only get the most out of portion control but to make the wisest possible choices when picking what I eat. Combined with exercise I have lost 24 lbs, 19 of those have been lost pretty quickly using MFP. Many thanks to the folks at MFP!!
P.S
For the first time in 19 years I am no longer "obese"!

Mfp and the great people on here !!!! Awesome could not have done it or been able to keep it off

I am so grateful to MFP, as you are.:flowerforyou: I appreciate the tools and support that have helped me to keep this commitment to a better and healthier me. When I am about to throw in the towel or get discouraged with myself, someone cheers me on and motivates me. I continue to search for success stories as a source of strength. I am able to dig deeper to discover why I am an emotional eater...errrrr WAS an emotional eater. This whole process would not have happened if I hadn't stumbled upon MFP while laying on the couch recovering from surgery in late December. Thanks MFP for helping me make lifestyle changes. Thanks to this site, I GET IT!

Reached my goal in 123 days. (Now I'm shooting for an extra 5 lbs) Thank you MFP!!! I could not have accomplished this alone...:drinker:

Tamiash

I'm so with you all! I tell everyone I couldn't have done it without this site. It's been my inspiration to move forward!!!!

robslady

I agree...this site had helped sooo much. Having friends on the same path. Never giving up. Accountable for my actions and actually seeing progress is AWESOME!! Thanks MFPs.

lulabellewoowoo

Although I have not yet "succeeded" the way I want, this site and the wonderful people on it inspire me every day to keep going forward and not to give up.

THANK YOU!!!!!

I agree, Thank you, thank you, thank you. This site is what keeps me accountable. I plan on losing all the weight I need to with the tools on this place. I am so happy I found it. I tell everyone about this site and how it has helped me.:flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :drinker:

Totally agree!! MFP has given me the tools, and the inspiration, to finally put my healthy lifestyle into action. I could not have done it without this site. While I've always eaten pretty healthy and exercised (inconsistently), MFP helped me realize what I wasn't doing all these years: portion sizes, water intake, and challenging my body with exercise. And there is plenty of inspiration to challenge my body even more. THANK YOU, MFP!!! :flowerforyou:

kwaters7

Totally agree! Nice post Sir.....

The accountability, ease of use and the community make this my fave site.

THANK YOU MFP!!!

needamulligan

I couldn't agree more! I have such a long path ahead of me. I have been on this road before but never with MFP. I have never felt so in control and empowered. Seeing all of your success stories encourages me to keep going! Thanks MFP and thanks to all of you for sharing your stories!

Same Here!! Love MFP!!!

HonestOmnivore

I could not have done this without MFP! And let me explain what "This" is - Through MFP I've been able to slowly move from the "I'm starting my diet" to "change of lifestyle". I've always tried to call my diets a life style change but it's never really worked. Here at MFP I'm learning how to live my own life, with my own tastes and trends, in a healthy and constructive way. I mess up (last night sushi for example) but over all I'm on the right track and I'm not feeling like this is something I will "quit" because it's just a change.

Plus I've met amazing people here and I want to stick with them, while they're sticking with me!:bigsmile:

lisanxd

I LOVE MFP! I tell everyone of my friends and family who talk about trying to lose weight about it. I am happy that some of them have joined me.

CreativeRedhead

Absolutely couldn't agree more! This is quickly becoming my favorite site and mainly because of the amazingly wonderful community. I've still got a ways to go but it's certainly helping me stay focused and stay aware of what I'm doing. Fist bump to MFP!!! So thank you and thank you all for being so great!

Thanks to Mike and Al and each and everyone of you

Funny you should post this today. I was thinking the same thing as I was exercising this morning. The tools MFP provided are amazing, between the database, the website and the ipod/iphone application. If determined, you are really set up to succeed. I started last August thinking I only needed to lose 8lbs or so after gaining weight over the summer. Now I'm about to hit a 20 lb loss and am at a weight I really never thought I'd even try to reach, but as I kept to the program, I kept losing. Even better, exercise has become a daily routine and I know as long as I follow with the diary and exercise, I won't gain again.

My only worry is that I hope this tool is always here for us---if I had to I would pay to keep it!

Only with the help of this site and the people on it have I really felt like I have changed my life. I an now the active, energetic, on-my-way-to-thin person that I've always thought of myself as. My habits have really changed and with it so has my future.

I honestly couldn't. I've learned so much from everybody on here and I know if it weren't for those specific people, I'd probably still be on a plateau or over extending myself or worse.
