    Someone that I met very briefly on January 5th, 2012 mentioned that her and her co-workers were losing weight using this site. For some reason I just took the name and ran with it. She is no longer on here but I have reached my goal. Is that a God given message for what?

    My husband...

    After a lot of thought I decided to join as well. It is a lot easier to show my support for his journey if we are both doing this together..; Both being better role models for our children. Especially since he does not cook. The meals and planning, shopping for snacks etc fall on me. So what better way to show support than to jump in and do it for all of us.

    My stepmom recommended it to me. I had actually had an account from years ago but had forgotten about it.

    I Google'd a question about how many calories you'd lose by vomiting, found a topic on the boards by a girl who was getting bullied for being "obviously bulimic" and the rest is history :bigsmile:

    I heard about MFP from my dental hygienist. :laugh: We'd always talk about where to buy cute big clothing, and this last cleaning visit she told me she was enjoying MFP. I checked it out at her suggestion, and I love it. Since I haven't spoken with her since, I don't actually know her username on here, so we're not friends on it yet. :laugh:

    I was at support group to get info about lap band surgery and they were all talking about the app. I started online and have since got an iphone so can stay connected all the time. For me, it's the best tool to add to my arsenal.

    My doctor's physician assistant told me his girlfriend was using it with a lot of success. He knew what he was talking about!
