in Chit-Chat
Mine was by accident. I got a new phone and was bored going through apps. I found one site and it wasn't good. Then I saw another app and got on here, posted, logged, and have loved it ever since. That was December 2010. How about you?

    I blog. And one of the blogs I stalk regularly mentioned it. I signed up but didn't really get into the social aspect of it until about 6 months or so in. Now I'm hooked.

    My ex boyfriend/lover/FWB told me about it. Told me it would really help shrink my *kitten*. What he didn't tell me was this place is like a meat market. Forever changed my life.

    And he might read this and laugh at the description i just gave him.

    Someone recommended it on my Weight Watcher blog when I mentioned I was struggling with the new program. I've been here ever since!

    A friend of mine "liked" it on Facebook. I hadn't heard of it before, so I clicked on the linkie, and was almost instantly hooked. I owe her one!

    Pretty much the same. I wanted a phone app. I had previously joined spark, but the site was kludgy, especially the phone app.

    For me I used sparkpeople first, then went to livestrong.com and finally to MFP. I found it when I googled calories on a particular food I was looking for. I like MFP best.

    My band director from high school and his wife used MFP, along with C25K, to lose something like a combined 180 lbs. I follow them on twitter so.... here I am...

    I was going to start counting calories on my own. I had a fresh notebook and everything! While on google trying to find the calories in some item I saw this site. I signed up and have been hooked ever since. I was already hooked, and then in January I got an iPhone and downloaded the app. Discovered a whole new love for MFP!
