    37, since I just went and counted them...surprised that I have that many as there are probably close to a dozen who I regularly interact with. I recently cleaned out all the people who weren't active on the site, including several people I actually know in real life :tongue:

    I have 27 and 20 of them have logged in within the last day.

    I try to talk to all of them whether it be to comment on a blog post, congratulate them on a loss, or make a comment on their food journal.

    I suppose I should do a little housekeeping and get rid of those who are not active.

    I only have 13. Two of them I know in real life and the others I try to comment on regularly.

    I'm open to having more friends though. So feel free to add me.

    This is a very frustrating topic for me right now. As I read posts, I add people who say to add them for support and motivation. I try to make sure that I post something encouraging on each friend's post most days. Yet, with the exception of one or two friends, do I ever receive the same. I would like to grow my friend list by adding people who know and understand what I am going through but I do expect the encouragement in return.

    alot - mostly carryover from another site- people who are silent there as well. I dont care. I dont mind subscribers.

    I only hope that my MFP friends are ok with me never being around on weekends. I have a no computer on weekends rule.

    I only have about 25. I talk to most of them though probably not as much as I should. I am a pretty shy person by nature. Most of them are on my friends list because I think they are witty and wonderful.

    Lol, 464. And that's after trimming it down by deleting those who have been inactive for more than a month.

    I generally keep it around 80 or less. I've had up to 130 and it was too much for me, especially when the whole status/main page thing started (been here a while...lol).
