Totally by accident here. I was bored playing on my new phone(almost 1 1/2 years ago) and was looking under health since new years was coming up. Found this site, loved it, loved the people and now I've been on here since december 2010. What's your story?

I was looking for an alternative to the expensive Weight Watchers one. Frankly, this site has more foods listed and makes it way easier to track.0 -

I went to the doctors and she mentioned it as she had been using it and found it worked really well for her. A prescription which doesn't cost £7.60!!0

I asked a friend at work how she stayed in shape and lost so much weight. She said myfitnesspal. Showed me the app on her phone and told me you will be amazed at the calories you are eating if you are not keeping track. I started that day and now here I am 13 pounds down!0

I wanted a simple tracking app for my phone and was sold on the huge database and barcode scanner. I started using the site to log food eaten during class when it's inappropriate to be on my phone (it's probably inappropriate to be on the site too, but my professors can't see it, haha). Then I just happened to go into the forums one day when I noticed an interesting link on the "Recent Forum Topics" sidebar on the homepage.0

I used to do a Rosemary Conley Diet and Fitness class in my local town, but when the instructor said she might be closing down, a friend (who was leaving anyway because of the cost!) said she had found this and recommended it! I have been on and off the wagon since then, but I've come back to shift the weight again (and hopefully for good this time!).0

Tumblr. I'm on tumblr and was looking under the healthy tag and someone put there diary on there so i looked it up and history was made. Lol0

We see everything. Mwhaha.
But seriously, it's very easy to tell when someone is distracted.0
