    I found MFP in a search that I did. I wasn't planning on dieting per say but knew I needed to change my eating habits. So I found it and decided it was something I had to do and have been here since. I spend way to much time here and have made some wonderful friends.

    I first heard about it in a Dietitian meeting (they did not want to waist the time with one on one sessions so they invited many people) . The I came across it again when I was looking for a calorie counter.

    My husband was talking to (male) co-workers about needing to lose weight, and his boss mentioned it. We both signed on that night.

    I work in a hospital and we needed to closely watch one of our patient's calorie count. My coworker found it. When I learned about it I signed up that day!
    This is a Gosd send as I have been steadily gaining the 30 lbs I lost last year and needed something to help get me motivated. And now I am!

    I googled for a calorie counter, came to this one first, liked what I saw, and signed up. Happily, I've gotten more than I ever expected! What a great source of information, support, and tools for a healthy life style!

    Google. I was looking for calorie logging, or just a list of what foods contained what calories.

    There are a couple of sites like this, but this one was WAY BETTER than the others.

    I was keeping track of what I ate on pieces of paper here and there and finally decided that I needed an easier way to keep track of everything... so I googled food diaries.

    And here I am :laugh:

    I found it pretty randomly, I was dieting already and I was searing in Google to see if I could find the number of calories a person my age and size needed eat day. Got very lucky :wink:

    I googled food journal. Knew that I had to write everything down or tended to forget the odd mouthful of the nummy stuff.
