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!

    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...

    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!

    I agree.. I can't be away from the site for longer then 15 min.. I have to make sure I track EVERYTHING.. and I get discouraged when idk.. I see things are looking bad.. I love talking and sharing things with my friends.. they should make an mfp anonymous group

    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:

    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:

    Hi my name is Tango198 and I'm an addict. I've been addicted to MFP for about 7 months now.

    Between MFP, Facebook, Twitter and message boards of a few bands I follow. I need help :laugh:
