    I am on here a lot as well. I enjoy seeing people posts their daily accomplishments with exercising and the food diary. The motivation I get from people on here feels genuine compared to FB.

    YEA YEA! I actually got called down for being online too much at work.....the only thing that saved me was the fact that it was MFP that I was logging into! LOL!

    I'm totally addicted. It's the first thing I do in the morning and practically the last thing I do at night. I check my numbers several times a day. I check my partner's numbers. I check to see how much less calories it would be to go from one cup to half a cup. And then I read everyone's diary. Before this I was addicted to Facebook, Scrabble, Nyquil, alcohol, bread, pasta and chocolate. Oh yeah, also chocolate. Love this f'ing program!!!

    Same here - can't picture myself going a day without logging in, probably more than one time.

    I can't have Facebook with my line of work, so I'm addicted to MFP games instead!

    I'm still addicted to facebook, but I do get on here a lot and leave a window open for MFP. I'm just not on fb as much since I started MFP.

    It's a great addiction as it reminds me I have to keep up the effort or I'll gain again. I'd probably just forget and slip back into old ways slowly if I didn't have this place.

    Ya know that part about getting 8 hrs of sleep each night?

    I stay up way too late on MFP. :-(

    Gotta cut back. But I love the before/after pics!

    MFP is my therapy! I'm so addicted that if I don't get my daily fix I will go nuts... Literally. I'm on here so much during the day no matter what I'm doing.
