edited January 30 in Introduce Yourself
So I have been pretty active here for about 2 years. During the summer months I am not as on the ball as I should be, but I'm always still here and try to be pretty supportive. It seems lately all of the people I have been friends with for a long time have disappeared! It's like 80% have stopped logging in frequently and have become ghosts! I'm looking for some active people to friend me. I find it more motivating when I see others logging foods, working out, and sharing stories. :):)

    same here, I"m almost on my 1 year mark...and I have only really 1 or 2 friends that come on sometimes anymore. I'm still trying to reach goals but it's so much more fun with friends and support. We can be friends if you'd like! :)

    I'm reasonably active. About to hit 120 days of logging in. I don't always log my food (esp on weekends when I go out to eat) but I pretty consistently provide support. Feel free to add me.

    I havent been here but a month and a half. That sounds discouraging that so many people give up. Its a journey not a sprint.

    i've been logging everyday for around 2 months now still going strong. Just started looking into the community side of mfp since doing it alone really can get daunting :p.

    My goal is to hit one year of logging - I think I am at 210 days. I also do my best to accurately log everything and not just log into MFP. Feel free to add me :)

    Been here for a year and half, and have a handful of people that started about the same time I did, it really helps when you have people that continue to encourage you. I had a very difficult year that derailed me, so to have them means the world to me!!

    I don't consider most people here (save one, she knows who she is)....friends, in fact, that's an abused word, especially online. I prefer....strategic alliance asset.


    That said, some people are only in your life for a season, miss. People get on this weight loss journey and sometimes get off at an earlier exit. While its nice to have strategic alliances with people here, I don't forget they can disappear into the ether of the interwebz, at any given time and without a word or warning. Hard to call those people friends, yes?
