    I found the app for android. This was several months ago, then just recently when I decided to try losing weight again I decided to check out the site.

    Like so many others, I was searching for a calorie counter on Google and this site popped up. The rest is history and it's looking to be nothing but good!

    I knew that logging my calories would be the thing that worked for me. I decided to write a website for personal use to do this. I searched the web for starter data and that lead me here. I saw that there was an iPod app, looked at the site, and decided to sign up. I think that the iPod app was the deciding factor to use this site rather than develop my own. Ironically, I almost never use the app because I love the website so much. I'm about to hit 110 days in a row logged in.

    I had decided that I was going to start exercising, and decided to browse through the apps on my Android phone (and iPod touch), and see if there were any health/fitness apps that might be cool to use. Found MFP's app, got on the website, and decided I might as well start counting calories eaten as well as burned...then, "hey - might as well lose a few pounds, too..."

    I did a weight loss contest at my gym and they use this site to have us track our calories. They set me up and I stayed ever since the contest (which I did not win btw)
