    I deleted my Facebook about 3 months ago. So sick and tired of all the negativity and complaining! I have enough if that in my day to day life, don't need it on the computer too! :tongue:

    Have to agree - I am hardly ever on FB now

    My peeps are always asking if I am on MFP again.... definitely addictive.... I have to keep it closed if I am on the laptop otherwise I dont get anything done !!! *bit like now :P*

    I got tired of all the facebook BS and deleted it. MFP is way better and more motivational. No drama on MFP :happy:

    I never did the FB thing, I only set up an account because Spotify made me. This site is pretty cool though.

    I dumped FB recently -- I just wasn't making use of it, and the upcoming interface changes sounded really annoying.

    MFP, on the other hand, is here to stay. It's got the social-networking aspect that makes facebook work, only we're all here on the same mission -- that is, leading healthier lives!

    I like MFP because we all have the same goals and on FB no one wants to hear about what you eat, your weight loss, and exercises....FB only likes drama!

    I've never had a FB. My wife says this is the same thing but I disagree...friends on here are mainly people I don't know but have the same goals that I do...I think that makes it completely different.

    I agree!! I check MFP as soon as I wake up in the morning. It's also the last thing I look at before I go to bed. MFP is much more entertaining and it's so much more worth my time than FB. FB is filled with drama and that's not a place for me!! I have an account, but rarely use it except to play a couple games when I am bored. MFP is where I get my motivation from and 95% of my support!! :-)
    I haven't lost 105 pounds by sitting on FB all day........I lost it by getting my *kitten* up and workingout/counting calories w/ my good pals on MFP!!!

    I deleted my facebook because it does nothing but cause procrastination and problems in relationships. So much happier without it. I love MFP because it actually has useful information and alot of motivated people with the same goals.

    The only good thing about Facebook is my family can all share pictures even though we live far apart. I don't know if people don't realize how annoying they are being or what but I'm fairly sick of the drama on there. Thank goodness you can unsubscribe from people now without the awkward "Why did you delete me?" conversation, because I don't care to listen to people who never have a positive thing to say!

    I'm still new to MFP but I love the positive vibes I've seen so far!

    Well, for me at least.
    Facebook used to be the 1st thing I looked at every morning. Not any more!!!
    MFP has taken it's place!
    I feel so much more motivated to get up off my butt!!
    :happy:

    Yes! I get to work and log on ASAP. Love this site :heart:

    Lol! I agree, I actually like my MFP friends better than my FB friends. I don't feel like I'm being judged on this site.
