Do you find yourself logging on MFP before any other website (EVEN FACEBOOK OR TWITTER)??

Can you not wait to leave the gym and go "add your exercise" to see how many extra calories you get to eat =P

At the end of the night, do you recieve some sort of "high" from clicking the green button labeled "Complete this entry" to see how much you will weigh in 5 weeks???

If you can say yes to any of these, you are a MFP addict and...

YOU MUST ADD ME =)=)!!!!! I love all the support from my MFP friends and you can never have enough!

    Me too. I use it much more then fb. I have let food and health consume my life a little it's all I think about, what meal am I have next. I would like to get to a stage where I have lost the weight and want to maintain it. Therefore It won't always be on my mind

    Oh YES!! I'm rarely on FB or twitter these days, I keep getting emails from FB saying "you've missed 1600 events, go and look" LOL! I live for MFP, I come on here several times a day to log, encourage, and motivate when I can. :bigsmile: :bigsmile:

    I am a total addict now as well... I log food before I even eat it sometimes. Sometimes AS I am eating food, I log it because I am so excited to log it. I know that's bad since you should never eat and be on the computer. But... I'M EXCITED!

    HAHA YUP - most of the time I am either logging it as I am preparing it, OR I am sitting at the dining room table on my laptop, logging while I eat. Too funny!! I just came back from a walk and ran right to the computer before I even took my sneakers or jacket off, so I could log my activity and see how much I have left for dinner! I have the app on my phone as well, and get really excited when I see the "you will weigh this much in this many weeks." Worse things we could be addicted to! I find myself logging in before Facebook these days (and keeping MFP open on my desktop 24-7), which is good because I am attempting to wean myself off FB anyways!!! :-)

    YAYYY =D I love itt!!!!!!

    I went to work (with no computer/cell phone usage) and all I could think about was logging on to MFP!!! I was literally biting my nails "feening" to get to a computer or my cell phone, and then I thought to myself

    "Omg, am I like crazy for being this OBSESSED? Should I be embarrassed?".

    Thank you all for showing me that I am not alone!!!!

    =D

    I answered yes to every question. I tell everybody about this web site. I think people must think I'm deranged. If someone asks me how I lost weight I tell them about MFP. I would love to be your friend.

    And most people look at you and are like "MFP??" And you just keep talking about MFP Tracker and MFP Community, and they just stare at you with this blank look =D

    Oh that would be me...My internet was down a while back...and I couldn't risk not logging on and losing my 160 days status at the time. So....I called a friend and had her enter everything for me on my account... Love the success stories.
