Really enjoy the friends, banter and support and information found here on MFP, I may hit FB once a day is all but that is slowly dwindling....

Same boat here...0

Me too, I am not on it much anymore either, and now it is mostly for Words with Friends. Spend most of my on line time here.0
-
I try not to be on either site too much but find myself here more. Now that I have Google+ I think I'm only going to use Facebook for my fitness page and some support groups I run.0
-
I am toning down my FB input. I don't like how open it is to anyone who googles you. I have deactivated my twitter account for the same reason.0
-
Definitely, once I joined here I was not on FB as much at all...I love the support here, not the constant negativity on FB, that seems like the place to go to complain, lol0

I know Im the same way! I hate how Facebook keeps changing there setting though... thats just annyoing and unneccasary! I love MPF for support. Knowing that there are others out there just like you trying to lose weight really is a boost in motivation. Facebook is slowly losing my interest anymore just social networking wise... Its just keeping to the point now that Facebook is being taken advantage of and being updated for no reason. People I really missleading the whole point of Facebook and why it was created in the first place... lol thats just my opinion.0

I view them as two completely different things. No need to quit one because you like the other.
I get plenty of good support and exercise/fitness talk here, and it's been helping me TONS with dropping some pounds. But FB is where the people I know in real life are, and it's great for keeping up with real-life friends.0 -
Facebook whoo?? lol. I enjoy MFP now over fb. We're all here for the same reasons. We offer support, motivation and it's a happy place. Facebook = whine..whine, whine, boohooo hoo, waa waa waa. Can't firggen tolerate it no more. I check in with family and that is all.0

I completely deleted my FB page about a month ago! Was so sick of the drama, the whining/complaining, and the kiss arsing that went on (fakeness). Haven't regretted the decision...and honestly, spend FAR less time on the computer now...giving me MORE time to workout and make healthy choices!
I just realized...truly...with the advent of internet/online chat and networking...I sat on my butt far too much. It contributed GREATLY to my weight gain over the years. I have a hard time with maintaining effective boundaries and it just ruled my life for too long. No longer...I'm FREEEEEEEEE! ;o)0 -
WHAT is Facebook?!?!0
-
I am doing the same thing. I am on FB less and less. It used to be as soon as I sat at the computer I was on FB, now I find myself here.0
-
I hate to divert people to a new drug when they are quitting one, but I like Google+ its worth a gander. In my opinion.0
-
i prefer facebook, where my family and friends are.0
-
Two different sites to me, here is seperate friends people who care about weight loss and will help you along etc.
I like it here only here a week though but I do like it. Need more friends though. I keep looking for a like button when someone posts something cool lol0 -

I too, use mainly my Facebook page for my fitness progression page.0 -
I like both, facebook for family and friends and here for the support and motivation.
For those of you who commented about how facebook is just for complaining...maybe the friends you have on facebook who are complaining just need some support, someone to talk to and some encouragement...that shouldn't just be limited to only this site. Also if you are so tired of seeing it, you can change the settings on your facebook page to hide postings from specific people.0
