    That does suck. Incidentally where is this counter of which you speak. I don't see a counter???

    Ah - I'm talking about my news feed on the home page. Every 5 days it says 'RafterRattler' logged in for x days in a row!'. It's been fun and motivating to watch it climb since October. I was away for one day last week....and it started over at 1. :(

    ^^TOTALLY agree!! I was nowhere near 250 but was nearing 85 and missed one day. I'm now only at day 15 ... GRRRRRRRRR.

    I am so OCD with this. Even if I don't have time to log my food, I make sure to log in. What's going to be tough is the next time I go on a cruise, because I don't have internet access on the boat, and there's no way I'm paying to use their internet lol Luckily, that isn't until next March.

    That really does suck. Too bad they can't change it to something like 'userxyz has logged on 100% of the time since joining MFP'

    Today is day 525 for me and I constantly remind myself to always log in... It would suck so bad to lose my day count.

    I know the day count shouldn't really matter but it sucks to lose that progress :(

    I have to admit, I'm really OCD about this. I want to see that 365 on my page! I'm at 250 today and haven't missed one. I even made sure to log in on my wedding day and everyday over my honeymoon xD.

    But I have an app on my cell, so when I click it it will log me in and I'm all set. I log then after I make my breakfast! :D

    I do log everyday but I sort of feel like the "You've been on x days" will jinx me somehow. Don't want that to happen, not 19 pounds later.

    I'm pretty OCD myself, and this is all about motivation....and maintaining that motivation is like balancing an egg. Every little thing helps - and little things can really hurt. It would be nice if you got credit for going back and filling it in after the fact.

    Thanks for the support and for letting me vent!
