in Introduce Yourself
At first FB was about reconnecting or staying in touch with friends, but peolpe have just turned that into a whole new motto...I MUST say, so far MFP is a better site and just about everyone has 1 goal in mind....to look better or feel better! Everyone who agress post your thoughts...

    i totally agree. facebook is for social connecting, like with old friends or long lost family memebers. my fitness pal is also for social connecting but, on a whole different level with one main goal at the end. i love this site so much ! everyone is super positive and knows what it feels like to not be happy with themselves. i have gotten so motivated since i have joined !! whenever i start to feel down or like i have failed, i just come over to the forum and read other people's posts. it helps me feel better knowing that im not alone on those bad days LOL :)

    I have a lot of positive friends on facebook, but this site is so focused on exactly what I want to be focused on, so I would say this is more positive than FB.
    FB has better games though. I'd much rather play gardens of time or farmville over "Rate the person above you" in the chat boards! :)

    Ever notice how most people on FB (well at least my freinds) only posts the GOOD stuff in their life? That's why i like MFP. It's real! Not everything in life is perfect. I have a weight problem, I need help staying motivated. Complete strangers haven taken me under their wings - now that's real

    I agree also.....I use to be on fb all the time but even though I have lots of friends on there nobody seems to want to chat. MFP pals are always here and ready to chat, listen or support me/us. I have been on mfp so much more than fb now.

    Thanks to all mfp pals who are always here for me.
