    I did an Herbalife Weightloss Challenge from June-Aug last year and she recommended we track everything on this site. I did well, feel of the wagon for a few months and have been doing great the last 5-6 weeks with the encouragement from some awesoem MFP buddies!

    I had a youtube account and a friend was talking about MFP in one of her you tube vids, so I checked it out.

    I was actually just googling around, trying to find information on how tattoos fare after weight loss, and I stumbled across the site. I wasn't even 100% looking to start my weight loss journey, but this website inspired me to get right into changing my eating habits. It's been amazing.

    I was planning on doing my diet alone and making a food journal. I googled something i ate to see how many calories it had and this was the third result. I looked through it to see what it was and it really motivated me!
    Tthis website and my determination will help me lose weight!

    I heard about it through a friend, who heard about it through another friend, who heard about it through a co-worker.

    A trainer at my gym told me about it. A year ago, I was doing it on my own, logging my foods in a notebook and tracking cals myself. I tried to eat healthy and I was exercising regularly. I lost 15 pounds, then I plateaued. When I asked the trainer for suggestions, she plugged my stats into this site, and, lo and behold, I wasn't eating enough!

    That week, I made my own profile and stuck to the MFP guidelines, and the weight started coming off again. I had other plateaus, but thanks to the info I learned from this site, I knew what to expect and what to do about it.

    I had the app on my iPod and never checked the site. Then finally I decided to make a big change and realized that I never checked the site. When I did, it was the best day ever! I've been hooked ever since!! I tell everyone about it. :bigsmile:

    I found this site through my iPhone app. I used to use the LoseIt! app for iPhone but once I discovered MFP, I loved it sooo much better!

    I used to use another website called Fitday.com to log my food, calories, and exercise, but I did a search in Yahoo to find out what else was out there and found this website. I like it a lot better.

    A friend of mine on Facebook had her MFP account hooked with Facebook and I saw her statuses and asked her about it and I decided to check it out and I have been hooked on it ever since. I would have never gotten this far without MFP or the wonderful support from the fantastic people on here. I am almost halfway to my goal already!
