    I flip back & forth between the two. But I do love this site. It keeps me motivated.

    The only thing I miss is being able to "like" a post. Other than that MFP is MUCH nicer.

    I check in on Facebook, but the bulk of my socializing is on this website. I like my friends on here better. :P

    I deleted my facebook about 6 months ago. It felt weird deleting it, but it helped me get my life together.

    This site however is AMAZING! I love it because this is what I need. No negativity, and just everyone trying to reach the same goal: A healthier life.

    However, I do wish there was a like button! That would be great for this site!

    More positivity here and less drama for sure. I have noticed some people make their status' here Facebook like and that's kind of annoying (because it's misplaced) but otherwise, I only check in there since being active here.

    I :heart: this site. However it would be better if it had the games that facebook has. the only reason I get on fb nowadays and that is to play Castleville.

    My MFP headline reads: MFP *is* my Facebook.

    I still use Facebook, but I'd rather be here.

    Facebook is full of duck faced lips, drama, pointless updates and people you dislike. Myfitnesspal is full of supportive and kind people!

    I have never been on facebook, I hear too many crazy stories about it. It doesn't seem to serve much
    of a purpose other than socializing whereas MFP is a weight loss tool that can be used to socialize with people
    that you have something in common with. I love this site and find it to be very helpful with meeting my goals.

    That's why I joined FB. If I want to know what's happening with extended family -- weddings, babies, etc, that's where I have to go.

    Seems like FB might eventually go the way of Myspace, but who knows?

    I feel the same way. No drama only positive here with a focus on healthy.

    I have actually deactivated facebook no need for it... I am quite simply over social media... No one texts you these days they facebook message you instead.. it is stupid!

    I agree, this is more healthier. I peek every so often at facebook. I sent out some invites to some FB fam/friends so far no one as has accepted. The only thing i have to say to them when the pounds start to drop is " Don't hate me cuz you ain't me".

    That is so sad and another reason I dislike Facebook nor do I use it.

    I have been on FB for years and love it: I have made some wonderful friends all over the world.Plus I also keep up with all the family happenings. FB is more a social site.

    I think MFP is wonderful, gives great weight advice and incentives on weight loss and being healthy, a life style change
    ... I just don't connect the two sites at all.

    Don't get me wrong, I would love to meet new friends on here as well, so please hit me up :)

    Cheers from Oz
