    I am back too.. Do very well when I log my foods, but when I drop off, I want to drop out of site and eat in shame. This time I have decided to make an agreement with myself and put it out there. I call it the 4 Agreements.

    1. I will log everything that goes into my mouth (MFP)
    2. I will blog daily
    3. I will check into the Atkins Chat room on a daily basis
    4. I will drink my 8 glasses every day.

    On a side note, I will pee myself to death, I will talk till I am hoarse, I will type till my fingernails break off and I will chew my food till my teeth grind.

    I am committed. I was at goal. Took a hiatus (aka known as a dive into the carb pool), gained 9 pounds.. Thought I was doing good. Dove again and this time resurfaced with a 22# gain. Got 8 off and still have another 14 to go.. Oh the journey I am on and the roads I have traveled.

    Good to be back. I feel like a thief that has been on the run and finally been caught. Exhausted and happy that I don't have to run. (If thieves feel that way at all, how would I know?).

    using sites that are better equipped to handle logging of food and exercise is my guess. this site is too buggy.
    Yeah, but this site by far has the best database and ease of use.

    this database is horrible. its mostly user entered right? there are tons of errors.

    OhEmmGee, F&L!! ((hugs, butt squeezes, smoochies, blahblahblah))


    It's just summer in North America. But, since the moderation crackdown, things are more sedate in general. Wait until September, it'll be silly again.

    I just started with MFP this summer. I love this site. I like how it links everyone who is movtivated to become fit and healthy, or who desire to help others with their goals. The MFP'ers that are still here during "vacation" time, are going to be here consistently. No worries mate. You're not alone! :drinker:

    Yeah, but all you have to do is double check from other sources if you believe there's something inaccurate.

    Or make your own for your own uses.

    I've tried other sites. They couldn't even find normal every day food items, and I had to stop and create one 50-60% of the time. Truly annoyed me.

    I dunno. I like this site and hope for its continued success. To each his own. :flowerforyou:

    I think a lot of people use the Mobile apps and never even see the forums! This is the First time I've looked at them!!

    Hey PX Mike,

    I'm still here too! Summertime is my season to stay indoors since we live in hot, hot, hot South Texas! I get out and about in the other three seasons. I've logged my food for 45 days straight and while I don't think that's any kind of a record, I'm happy because I've stuck with it.

    Hard work pays off--you're proof of that. Keep up the good work!

    Do you use other sites/apps that you think are better?

    I have been here since may - trying the EMTWL approach - not having any success yet. Currently trying to reset metabolism.

    I workout a lot and am not seeing weight loss, am not seeing strength gain, nor size loss- so it gets harder to keep coming back.

    I'm back after a hiatus letting an injury heal. Having a lot of success now that I quit making excuses for myself. Won't be going anywhere, this is how I make myself accountable.

    I think it really does get quiet once summer is over in the northern hemisphere. I'm a Brit living in Australia for now and so we have a while until our summer here.

    No fad!!! We're all just out enjoying summer to its fullest and so many people are focused on getting kids ready for school, etc. Also, I got to a point where I was obsessing over food, exercise, etc, and recently I spend my time out enjoying activities rather than sitting here obsessing over what to do/not do. I'll likely be back soon. :smile:
