Ok it hit me today just how much this site affects me beyond just fitness. Just today I got up called my GF which I met on mfp, prepared Crock Pot Buffalo Chicken which I found in the forum, then took my son to watch Prometheus which my MFPal GetFitDiva recommended. So its your turn what impact has it had on you

    Well I used to stay logged on MFP at work while I was deployed overseas in the desert. It definitely made the down times easier and kept the morale up because these forums used to have me busting out laughing!! lol

    I like perusing, laughing at, shaking my head at, and contributing to the forums.

    I use this site as an outlet for all the sarcastic, b!tchy crap that flows freely from my mouth. Some s#it you just can't say to your friends and family and expect them to hang around for more.

    It also keeps me from shopping on Amazon.com when I get bored at work.

    Saving money while pissing people off . . . jackpot!

    Just about sums it up. lol.

    I just have to add, I like supporting my MFP friends. In fact MFP and getting to know some of you on my Friends list has actually taught me a lot about myself. I know I'm definately still gonna be here once I hit my GW, in order to maintain, but also to keep in touch with my friends on MFP.

    :happy:

    I know right! Well... I met the love of my life on this site. I have developed great friendships on this site. And I am taking a trip to Miami (my 1st trip to Miami) next month with a bunch of great girls I met on this site. Definitely extends beyond fitness. xoxo

    other than helping me shed over 40 lbs, and various prescriptions, MFP has given me a circle of the funniest, most interesting, caring people who will get my back and vice versa in any forum I decide to tangle with. They are a constant source of encouragement, support, meal ideas, fitness tips and genuine hilarity. I really love and appreciate each and every one of them!:heart::heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart:
