I wanted to post this for a while now so Im going to say this:

MFP- when i first signed up- I thought it was going to be a waste of time, like facebook, and I was afraid it was going to be nothing but a bunch of guys /girls trying to date me, or whatever.lol.

To my surprise, I lost 4 lbs since ive been here, almost 3 weeks now. I have had a couple of dirtbags apply (lol-who hasnt) but for the most part, Ive recieved a lot of good tips, advice- recepie ideals and great encouragment. I didnt think it was going to be this great. Im so glad I signed up. I LOVE the calorie counter and exercise log too. I think its great that your held accountable for all you do, and my buddies I have now are honest with me, not just letting me slide, or agreeing with every mistake I make. I get kicked in the plate ...so to say lol. I like the fact that all my buddies log thier food, even bad days, admit thier faults, and post in the thread when they have real concerns or want honest opinions. Also the fact that you REALIZE seriously- there are so many people who have your same goals, struggels, and faults as you do.

So..this is my big thank you, to them, and hey one thing that someone mentioned to me:

if you friend someone, you should make an effort to comment on all you can, and not just friend to have a high friend count. These people are counting on you for support. we cant get to everyone every day-true, but dont neglect anyone, make the effort. no ones post on your thread should go unanswered, no matter what.

ONE LAST THING, you shouldnt care where anyone is from, gender, race, sex, sexual prefrence (who cares any ways- you shouldnt even be asking) age, looks- WAHTEVER. We are all here for a reason, to get fit-healthy-and support and encourage eachother. This is MyFitnessPal, not a dating site and not facebook. real people with a common goal. So if you want to friend me go ahead, but dont get it twisted, I will delete you, and it wont be-but a thang. :)
