    Because I'm fat. And I need to be less fat.

    We don't like to use the word fat around here...people are sensitive.

    Sorry if I offended anyone with the F word, but I was just talking about myself...

    No, don't apologize. Offend people, come to the dark side.
    Offending people is a valid reason to be here.

    If it means I get to use the word fat in the correct context, then count me in.

    Originally to count calories. I've stopped doing that now.

    I'm here for the inspiration I get from my hardworking friends, to have someone to brag to about my workouts, the entertainment and sometimes insight I glean from the forums.

    Track what I eat and possibly learn through trial and error and from people who've gotten their desired body.

    I joined to use it to help me lose weight and it was free.

    I am constantly on here during work hours because I am easily distracted and bored out of my mind.

    me too. LOL

    I'm on here for my health.. no.. really I am! :) lol. I was recommended this site, by a friend, and I love it. So easy and straightforward to deal with, and there are all you lovely people to help and advise if we have any issues or problems. I think 2014 is going to be MY Year, and I look forward to posting a before and after pic at the end of the year :)

    I'm here to track my food. I need to lose weight, and if I'm accountable to something for what I eat, I am less likely to excuse that extra chocolate chip cookie.
    Well, except yesterday. But it was a rough day.

    I am on here to track all my food and my weight loss. I feel accountable to my MFP friends if I don't log or if I go over.

    Maybe to find a gal with common fitness goals and dieting???? or is that asking for too much.

    To keep track of any crap or outrageous calories I might ingest on a daily basis... for the most part I eat pretty healthy (I have to be gluten, lactose and sugar free). On occasion when I go out to eat somewhere and I have to enter that food on MFP, I am so shocked. In one sitting at Red Robin (love that place though...great food), I can consume over 900 calories. All I usually have is Gluten Free bun with my burger and gluten free sweet potato fries so it isn't like I'm eating a lot of food. I need that reality check and entering the information on this site is personal accountability and self awareness. :-)

    900 calories? A plain ol cheeseburger there has about 800 by itself, and that's not including the fries, appetizers, drinks, desserts. The Royal Red Robin burger has 1200!

    900 is about right for one sitting. Then I stand up, adjust my pants and sit back down for round two.

    For food porn, obviously.

    And the occasional random pm porn, but that's just standard.

    It started for inspiration and to get myself under control. Now it's about helping others learn some of the lessons I've learned the hard way and inspiring as much as I can. Some of the MFP friends I've made have become closer in certain ways than my IRL friends just because we have the same goals, passions and mindset.
