MFP gave me an OCD!

Yes. I'll admit it. I have a problem. I am obsessed with the positive vibe and accountability I have to show with this website.
I am obsessed with the wins and amazing achievements of my friends.
I am obsessed with keeping up with them and I am obsessed with reaching my goal that I have never reached before.
Already I feel as though I have turned complete strangers into friends I hope to meet and train with one day.
And I am impressed with the numbers of people who are flocking to the site for help and I wish that I could touch you all.
I have a problem but I'm not planning on doing anything about it

Is there an MFP Anonymous Group? Maybe we should join! I'm also obsessed with updating, welcoming new members and such. It's wayyyyy worse than facebook. At least it's a positive addiction!0

I heart MFP too...but you wanna touch us all...LOL...OK the humor keeps me here as well. I also love that I can admit to others about things that happen when you gain weight and they understand; like not being able to see your toes...0

At least we've all admitted we have a problem, so that's half the battle. However, I too am refusing to kick this habit!!

If loving mfp means that I am mentally ill, well then so be it. Put me in a padded cell with my ipad (and elliptical machine), I will be just fine!0

I'm an MFP/OCD too and I love it!!! I feel closer to the posters than I ever have with in the flesh 'so called' friends. For me to have never been on FB, I have gotten completely hooked here and I'm sooooooo glad. There aren't many disorders that make you relish in your compulsions while becoming a hottie at the same time(lol)!!!!!!!!:smokin:0

I'm outta control, myself!!0
-
MFP is my latest obsession, but it's good for me!0

I keep both MFP and FB open at the same time on different tabs and flip-flop between the 2. Does that make me doubly sad? :laugh:0
-
hahahaha your all TOO FUNNY!! I used to complain that my husband didnt pay me enough attention and spent all his time on the computer ...
We should definately start a club - oh hang on ...0 -
