in Introduce Yourself
Today is my first day on MyFitnesspal. Some girls at work introduced me to it and I am very excited to start logging my day and keeping up with what I am eating. However one thing I noticed that I found funny is that the ads on the side are for Dominos pizza. Not sure how that is motivating, but just a tidbit I found funny that a pizza ad was on the sidebar of a fitness website.

    Huh... my ads are for Alpro soya milk.
    Maybe they change depending on where you live.

    Actually, it's pretty damn brilliant... what better target audience than those who admittedly have issues with self control when it comes to food (among other things :wink: )

    Well... welcome... happy to have you join the fam...

    They seem to change depending on your web searches. Mine is Pandora and that happens to be the last thing I looked up. However, if I search for something (on the web) diet related, I'll get all sorts of diet crap. Try doing a search and see what happnes. Welcome and best of luck.
