      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:

      Same here! It was mostly people complaining about how miserable their lives are because they were slightly inconvenienced by something, or how someone offended them while getting their latte at Starbucks... I just couldn't take it anymore.

      I was just thinking, "Wow, do I still need Facebook?" Unfortunately, most of my friends are still there and not here!

      Good to know I'm not the only addict. FB is so 2010 :) I keep getting bugged about how much time I'm spending on here too.

      It would be nice if there was a way that we get notified of new "posts" or "comments" when we reply on a forum or comment on someone's status. That would make coming to MFP a lot more better.

      My FB is full of non sense... MFP is full of support and friendly people offering advice encouragement help and my friends even share their diaries with me so I can get ideas of what tasty snacks to pack in my lunch! It's the first thing I open and the last at night. 1am... good night world!

      It's the Facebook for Fat People. (FFP)

      actually, how bout we say "Facebook for the FUTURE FIT FOLKS."

      I like the sound of that SO much better.

      Ditto! I'm on MFP so much more than FB now!

      Plus I love the support. A few of my friends are also working on getting healthier on FB but it's not really the same as the support you get here!

      I am totally addicted to MFP. I don't go on facebook very much. MFP is the first thing I look at when I get up and the last thing I look at before bed. It is so positive.
    • Posts: 54 Member
      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:

      Same here! :bigsmile:

      Fast becoming for me as well! Very into social media, but I automatically flock over here everyday.

      Too funny!

      Can't be in denial here! We're ALL here for the same reason!

      I love the fact that people who have reached their goals remain on here to support those of us who are working on achieving our goals.

      Says a lot for this place!

      I totally left Facebook awhile ago, and have never missed it. I am on this site 3 to 4 times a day (not including iPad or droid app). It is nice to be around like minded people who have similar goals

      Rarely check out my FB account. I find it boring. Am on MFP daily for tracking. Some interesting topics here.
