Do you tell everyone you use MFP? I told few friends and family and they are like what is that?

Also, how many of you use the MFP app on your phone?

    My boyfriend knows I use MFP, but as to whether he wants details or not...doubt it! :happy:

    I wish I could use the apps, but my phone isn't quite fancy enough. I can get to the website with my phone, but it's much easier to use from a computer for me.

    I tell everyone. People always are asking me, "How did you do it????" and although I know that I put in the work to get healthy, I don't know how I could have done it without this amazing tool and the awesome support I get on here.

    I don't have a smart phone, so I just use the website, no app.

    I don't tell most people because I want them to notice on their own that I am losing weight. Sometimes when people know your trying to lose weight they say you look like you lost a ton of weight just to be nice.

    BUT If I know someone who is trying to lose weight also then I share the site. My sister and my friend have both checked it out.

    I tried to tell people about it in the beginning...but they don't seem to get it so I don't bother anymore. Plus, I think I secretly want to keep it to myself! If I didn't have the app on my phone I don't know what I would do!!

    Not really. when people ask how I am doing it, I tell them about MFP, but that's about it. If they join, they'll see what it is all about.

    I started using my phone app (iPhone) before I found the website. I love them both!! my phone for the convenience and the website for the more robust community aspect.

    I tell my close friends that have expressed an interest in losing weight and encouraged them to join because of all the great support. I also use the Droid app and love it. It's so handy to record calories at any time.

    I'm a pretty private person, I guess, I can't imagine when I'd even have the occasion to be telling someone about MFP, to be honest. LOL So, no, it's never really come up.

    I would tell a friend about it if they were looking to get healthier and I thought they'd want a good way to log calories, and maybe even talk on the message board.

    Hubby does. No one else because then I'll get far too much unsolicited, useless and incorrect advice about weight loss ;)
