'Real life' freinds on MFP?

Just wonderingg... do you have any / many of you have your 'real life' friends as friends on MFP? I have tried to persuade loads of people I know to sign up, but with no luck. Think it would help with motivation!

    I do but they never log. It's up to me to keep up with this. I don't depend on anyone but me. :drinker:
  • That's kind of how I feel too! :happy:
  • I don't know about anyone else, but I sort of got on this site because I DON'T know of any real life friends who use it. It was sort of a nice source of motivation that could be anonymous. I've been to humiliated to even tell my friends I started dieting.
    So there's always that point of view. ;)

    I don't have any 'real friends' on here. I've tried to workout with them but we never stick to it and its not something they want to talk about everyday so I signed up for MFP. So far I love it! I can talk to anyone about anything, then if my friends want to workout occasionally it happens, but its nice to have the support of others in the meantime.
