Becoming hooked on this site

Forget Facebook - I am now spending more time on this site. Scary! I find the messages so motivating and I enjoy reading all the information. However I must admit that a small part of me has this fear that if I stop using the community, I will slowly go back to my old ways. Is it just me?

    So glad I'm not alone in this! I go through days sometimes when I think I will be in and out of the board in two mins. I end up staying two hours :P

    Ditto! I'm hooked on MFP...I absolutely love it. The success stories are so inspirational!!
  • I'm so addicted to this site, and tracking my calories.
    There are worse sites to be addicted to though i'm sure!

    Guilty! In my defense, I have to log on regularly to track my eating. :smile:

    MFP is more fun than facebook because mostly everyone on this site is NICE, SUPPORTIVE, MOTIVATING, and just AWESOME. Facebook is full of mean girls, lazy people, and just plain idiots.

    Beat me to the punch line, girl!!
  • I am also hooked on MFP. (Sounds like a drug or something, right?? There should be a support group for recovering MFPers :wink: ) Facebook is old news. People get made fun of for posting workout tips/workout updates on FB... who needs that?? I'd much rather be *here* !!

    I was thinking it was an acronym for something else, but I don't want another strike.

    Yep, love it and spend a lot of time just browsing around. My favorite is the Success Stories -- can't get enough. Even the changes from a relatively small weight change is motivating to me!
