    I'm on the forums because of the traffic, I joined MFP to track my fat intake to ensure I ate enough.

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

    that! is the perfect response.

    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.

    Please tell me more. I'd like to see you bend over and pick something up.

    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.

    Lots of people like that might be gaining muscle and losing fat when they exercise, which they might be getting healthier but not losing a lot of weight, or even gaining weight.

    I love pics of those people! They can look 30 lbs lighter and be at the same weight. Now that's dedication without letting the scale rule your health/ diet/ fitness goals. Those people are my heroes!

    i just realized i'm one of the people you're talking about, haha. i joined in 2010 out of curiosity because i didn't know what it was. didn't need to lose weight at the time, nor was i concerned with what i was putting in my body, so i didn't sign in for about, oh you know, three years. now it's 2013 and it looks like i've been active for 3.5 years, but really it's only been 65 days. the end.

    Some are in a constant battle to beat that last five or ten pounds off. I'm here out of habit and the need to "check up on myself" and make sure I'm eating well enough. I might not log for several months, and then pop in and log obsessively for several weeks. Gotta make sure I'm eating enough and that my sugar levels aren't even more sky high than I already know they are...

    To get healthy. I made a new account when I rejoined so I wouldn't have to deal with people being like "omgz you've been here a year and only lost 11 pounds? Why are you even here?" Even this one is inaccurate because I joined in February, but didn't actually start until April 1st. Like another person said. **** happens. People die. End of story.
