    Stumbled across it on the i-net when I was looking for a food diary & was ready for a life change. Technically almost a year on here, but official count is 227 days in a row (with only 1 day missed I believe)

    My co-worker, nboliver told me about it after she found the app for her iTouch. I'm at like 16 because my counter got screwed up but I'm really at 170 something.

    I found out about MFP through searching for apps on iTunes. I am 42 consectutive days on this round. I have used it in the past but this is probably the longest consecutive run.

    At the beginning of this year, I had already started to change my diet for the better and increase exercising. I had made an announcement to my family that cooking was going to be different from that point on. About 2 weeks into it, my hubby came across this site and I have been hooked ever since. I attribute my success in losing 37 pounds to this site! I have met some really nice people here too! All is good...:drinker:

    My good friend PoeRaven (aka Jan) told me about it as she had been on here for awhile. I started in April of this year and I attribute my 24 pound weight loss ALL to having to record every morsel that goes into my mouth and recording my exercise!!

    I saw someone on Facebook post her nutrition from this site and thought I should check it out and log in my food as health professionals suggest all the time. Well I am hooked and I have been 125 days consecutively but it should be 140 since I missed logging in 1 day, grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr :grumble:

    Saw two good friends posting their successes on Facebook, so I figured why not try it? 72 days and 22 lbs lost later, I am so thankful to them and the creators of MFP!

    My daughter Dasha was using it and found out about the Android app. I started using it 47 days ago and have logged in every day since! I love it and it is helping me so much. I say it, but really it is all of my friends on here, their encouragement, love, and concern they show to me. I love it!! And, for the first time since I was a kid, I really BELIEVE that I will reach my fitness goals!!!! Thank you everyone!

    i was complaining to a friend of mine about my weight and he told me to come to this site to use the food diary. I didn't know I would meet so many wonderful people on here, so 93 days and 21 pounds later, I have discovered that all it really takes is diet and exercise!

    Strange but I can't remember, I think I found it on my own when I Googled, seems like 100 years ago! But it's been the best 100 years of my LIFE! flirt2.gif

    Somewhere around 180 or days? ( I guess that's when we got the newsfeed counter deal, don't think it counted our days before that time)

    I came over from the Sim Fast site when they changed their format. I had been using a MFP ticker. Been here almost 190 days so far. Love it.

    I heard about in March from stepdaughter and signed up but didn't really start using it until mid June. Been logging faithfully now for a little over 70 days.. I really think this is the one tool I can stick with - I am not dieting - I am simply adopting a new lifesyle and love it. I credit my success to all my new friends who keep me motivated and support me. I can only hope to return the favor to them. :flowerforyou:
