Why are you really on MFP?

The Boobs

and then someone like me is stuck at 8.5 of 10 lb goal, and every day when I hit complete diary, MFP promises that in 5 weeks I will be blah blah blah pounds.

I stayed for the women, btw.

Occasionally, I notice people who have been MFP members for a couple of years only to have come no where near their goal...for instance someone (who has been a member since 2010) lost 7 lbs of a 65 lb goal.

REALLY? What have you been doing for 3 years in that you have only lost 7 lbs?

I'm here to create a nice stable of women who will satisfy all of my needs. ha ha ha ha

Just kidding. When I first joined MFP, it was to lose 20 pounds and I've succeeded but gained 10 of it back. Seriously, my friends that I've made are the greatest and they help me stay motivated..........and that would include the OP. Hey Meredith, how ya doin baby.

Been here 860+ days and I'm just barely half way there. The past year has been a bust for me unfortunately. I don't judge though. I knew my way was not the best or lets face it, not working. Oh well. I don't beat up on myself nor do I let others...

To get good deals on the stock market! Actually for boobie day!

I'm here for the comradery... its nice to have people (even if they're miles away) hold you accountable & give you support. Right now I feel like an outsider trying to find the secret way in, but it just gives me one more reason to log on and try hard. lol

there's a Way in you think? Keep up the hard work.
Im here cuz there's no going back for me.

I've been here since September 2011, nearly two years, and I've only lost 10 pounds. What are you implying, that I shouldn't be here because I've only lost that in that amount of time...?

I'm not perfect, and neither is anyone else, but to be honest with you, I don't owe you an explanation and neither does anyone else. Life happens (and so does death). Have a little compassion.

It's taken me three years to lose roughly 35lbs. I sometimes experience long plateaus and sometimes just eat at maintenance for months at a time. I don't know about everyone else ( and I haven't been a member all that long) but that's why my counter doesn't move very often. Also, I only weigh in once a month. That's my serious reply to a tongue and cheek thread.

lol, i always wondered about the "you'll be XXXlbs in X weeks" thing... it never seems to be attainable!

i've lost pounds and put them back on even add more. its call life i'm not perfect

that! is the perfect response.

Eye candy of course!

I like to talk about picking things up. Putting them down. And looking at inspiring photos of bulky women.

Cause sometimes we screw up and have to start over (or midway) again.
