    It's like I NEED to log in my exercise and food immediately afterwards or something awful will happen! Now, when I tell my boyfriend "I just want to log my cals burned quickly and then I can help you with dinner" he says "Un-huh, tell me when you're off and THEN we'll start dinner.."!

    I will be in the middle of nowhere next week for work and won't have internet!! ARGH! No logging in for 5 days!! I hope I can cope!:laugh:

    Yep.
    I have NEVER posted online about anything, really, until this.
    I no longer have room to talk about my fiance playing World of Warcrack. I have "crack" of my own!

    I also promised myself I wouldn't post today; too busy at work. Yep. Right.

    My name is Melanie and I cannot stop using MFP.
    And I'm ok with that!

    I don't know what you're talking about!

    I'm not an addict! I can quit anytime I want to!

    I'll log off in five minutes, honest!

    I'm FINE!

    (twitches, falls over)

    :laugh: Yeah - me too!!! Uh-huh. You betcha!! :laugh:

    Gosh this is hard.I have been in denial for soooooo long but here goes. My name is Heather and I too am a mfp addict and a message boardaholoic.
  • lol! Yes I'm addicted too. My husband is probably getting tired of me talking about my calories. It is funny that is can be so addicting. I even feel now that exercising can be very addicting. I guess thats a good thing. :happy: I'm so glad I found this site.

    I am 63, I have never been addicted to anything in my life, I am not about to start now. Being addicted is unhealthy, Just because I check in morning, noon and night and read every post I can and input every morsel of food i eat and just because I have posted too many times to count and just because I think about and pray for people I dont even know and probably will never meet and just because I print every food log, hole punch it and put it in an binder and just because I am disappointed that we can only have pictures of 18 friends and not 118 and just because I feel like I know Mike the creator of the site personally WELL....does that mean I am addicted.. I dont think so. My name is lorelai and I am not an addict. I am in control of being out of control with MFP programs and friends. So there I said it and I feel better now...

    Sadly, all of us addicts will soon have thin healthy bodys. But, we will all have wide flat bottoms from sitting in front of these stupid computers all the time.
    In fact, I am logging out now. Once again......I have snow to shovel! (after I finishing reading the posts that came in since I logged out last night)

    I'm with you Viviakay! I can quit anytime I want to.
    I don't freak out when the site is down for (getting jittery and biting nails) 45 full minutes of maintenance last Sunday
    I just very calmly hit "refresh" 187 times in a row and I'm good...

    Amen!

    I never spam my friends with website referrals, but I did with this one! Three or four days now, and I'm hooked =)

    A support system is key, true... but there's something about seeing it on the screen at the end of the day - so rewarding!

    LOL on the binder!

    My name is Monica and I am an MFP addict! When I want to spiral, I read an inspirational post instead. When I want to skip a workout, I think about my sad little chart with the missing spaces. When I want to eat that warm chocolate chip cookie, I think about logging it immediately afterwards and suddenly it doesn't seem worth it.

    ...And when I want to sleep, I'm obsessively reading the boards instead!!!!

    LMAO :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
    Ok I admit I am on way more than I should. I have even stopped coming home at lunch just so I will go for a walk and not log in:blushing:

    The kids know what I will do when I walk in the door and what I will want after I eat and any other time of day I am not quite sure what to do with myself. Hmmm is that addicted. :blushing:

    I gotta go out and play in the sun before I say another word:wink:

    I admit I am powerless over MFP-ing.

    It's either 3:06 AM or 2:06 AM, I'm not sure which (daylight saving).

    Keep coming back. It works.

    :happy:

    Yes I agree very addicting! My husband is also getting sick of me ranting about it! I keep asking him if he wants to join, now he thinks I'm calling him fat!! I love reading and replying to posts. It's pretty bad when all I want is for my baby to go for a nap so I can check in with you guys!! I'm already starting to shake knowing he's going to be up in a few minutes(I can hear him whimpering a bit) My name is Penny and I'm an addict. If I replace this with my eating and smoking I'll be in great shape in no time!! Wish I could work out and type at the same time!
  • I am brand new and can tell it will be addicting. However, there are worse things I could be addicted too...I think my hubby is happy Im on here..because I am now not boring him with my calorie info or my excitedness to lose the weight!

    Oh well....atleast we can be addicted together right??

    :glasses:
