    "It's like Facebook for fat people."

    That's both funny and mean lol.

    Well, I'm a former fatty, so I kinda feel like that makes it ok...

    I say nothing, deny all knowledge of MFP. If anyone asks me how I lost the weight, I just say I am eating less and I am working out more. Which is the truth.

    I don't know that I've ever really talked to my friends about MFP...when I was losing I told a couple of them that I was counting calories but then that just tended to become kind of an annoying conversation...so eventually I just let my results do the talking.

    I don't tell my friends about MFP...it's a deep dark secret world.

    I keep it simple and tell them it's a calorie counting website.

    A place where you can feel good about posted half naked pics because here they're not slutty, they're 'progress pics'. ;)

    Not possible. I have this lucky horseshoe. And this four leaf clover. And this rabbits foot. And this penny. And this buddah belly I've been rubbing (makes my tummy feel better). And a bird crapped on me. I'm totes lucky right now.
