    I wish that it notified me when someone commented on my posts though because I dont always look back through my profile so I sometimes miss stuff. But I agree that it is addicting and informative! And I can share things on here I would never share on Facebook.

    Ahhh!!! A support group for MFP addicts! I love that idea! cramer.... I laughed so hard at your post... it's still true for me, but I actually post on here and read what other people have to say.... my friends on FB ***** more than anything else, this is so much better for my mental perspective! :)

    I love this site much more than Facebook. Especially since this site is all about changing your life, and I have a lot of complain-y friends on facebook who do nothing about their problems, never changing. Now that I think about it, there's a person or two I really want to un-friend because of the aforementioned. Anyway, everyone on this website is a bad@$$. On Facebook? Not so much. :D

    I find myself checking my MFP wayyyyy more frequently than my FB. Uh oh...look out! :)

    MFP is a great site and has a great community of people! I've only been doing it a few days now but so far, I'm loving it!

    Well I like them both. I like facebook because I keep in touch with my family back home and my friends. I enjoy the different pages etc. I like it here for the support and motivation. I also like that here I can freely talk about my weight loss etc. and not get a ton of negative feedback. But I also get more one on one chats on facebook. So I use both.

    I log into FB once a day on an evening at most to see what all my friends/family have been up too.

    On the other hand, I am logged onto MFP and BnB all day. Lol.
