    I'm pretty sure i need an intervention. no, seriously!
    okay, so signs of addiction are:

    - Extreme mood changes – happy, sad, excited, anxious, --> more happy since using mfp
    - Change in sleeping patterns --> sleep a lot better since using mfp
    - Changes in energy –> much more energetic since using mfp
    - Weight loss or weight gain --> pretty obvious
    - Secretiveness --> I check mfp at least 10x a day, sometimes when in public i'm embarrassed of how many times I check it/ am on it
    - Lying --> I lie about how much i check it, its more like 15x a day
    - Changes in social groups, new and unusual friends ---> mfp community is awesome!
    - Drug paraphernalia such as unusual pipes, cigarette papers, small weighing scales, etc --> UM food or body weight scales anyone??!?!

    ^^^This! LOL! LOVE IT!!!

    If by addicted you mean it's the first thing I check on my phone when I wake up, last thing I look at before bed, have conversations about my MFP friends as I could any friends I have offline, and have a browser open the entire work day then....Nah, I don't have a problem at all.

    Me neither LOL

    I'm hardly on at all. And I rarely post in the forums. Those addicted need to get a life.

    anyone notice this person ^^^ on page 1 has 4,132 posts hahahaha.....but me, no, between work and my massive excercise routine (i hit 939 minutes last week) i'm not on here a whole lot other than to track food and excercise minutes, though i could see easily being addicted if i spent more free time on here instead of excercise :tongue:

    (edit for acurate excercise minutes instead of a guess)

    I noticed that too

    Am I addicted to MFP? I can honestly say no. It passes time. What I am addicted to

    The blood, the sweat and the tears...

    The pain of a good workout... the muscle burn you get when you press yourself that extra set with a few more extra pounds....

    The thumping heart beat when you push your run or jog an extra minute or three...

    That's what I'm addicted to...

    I am pretty obsessed but I think in a good way not a bad one. I'm not starving myself but I like to keep myself on track as well as support my mfp buddies.

    Its my drug of choice.

    I agree - I missed my friends posts this weekend while I was camping because there was no cell service. But yet I still did log my food. I was totally glad to come back to see my MFP family. I missed them while I was gone lol
