in Introduce Yourself
I am addicted to this website. I have never had a drive to want to lose weight/eat healthy//be healthy until I started two weeks ago. I have an iPhone and I'm on here after every meal logging my food. I love the support from people on here. It's more than I get from friends. I am still pretty new and looking for more people to add who have a drive to succeed. So far I'm good on staying with my calorie limit. But excersizing i haven't stuck with yet. I just need to tell myself to just get up at 5:00 no excuses!!

    I was just thinking this! I actually suspended my facebook because I was getting sick of negativity and "woe is me"s I've done really well this week and I hope it keeps up!

    Feel free to add me!

    Same here. After about a month on here, I was not on Facebook at all for about 2 weeks. I check on a few people every now and then, but I am not on there nearly as much as I used to be, Now I am on MFP!

    I only go on facebook to check in with family and friends now... Every once in a while I'll play a game of slingo.

    I deactivated FB last September. Best decision ever. What a worthless pile of crap that site is. :D

    I feel the same way!! I don't even have a FB page but my husband actually told me that this is my FB! He's right, I enjoy this site and all the help I get from it! MFP is the greatest:drinker:

    I am on here more than on facebook, and enjoy it so much more too! I love reading the message boards and all the support that is out there. I would rather get on here and reply to great posts and give/receive support from some wonderful friends on here any day!! I also use my phone app every day. LOVE THIS!!!

    I deactivated my facebook until I reach my weight goal (only 7 more pounds!) so I'm DEFINITELY on here more.

    HAHA I am the same way:) I still have my fb up in another tab but I rarely go there or post..this place just seems to have it all! You can talk to your friends about health and weight loss but also talk about everyday occurrences and stuff!:) Plus its just nice to have friends on here and people who understand what your going through and "get" it:)

    I'm on both but it's nice to have friends who share the same interests as me. My "real life" friends are not into fitness...they say they are but never follow thru and I never did get much support from my family. And I'm a school bus driver so those coworkers don't share my love for working out, etc lol

    Facebook kills my motivation, there's so much negativity. Hell half the people on facebook are the reason i want to lose the weight. Prove to all those jack holes that i'm worth a damn. Let the girls know what they passed up ;)

    Facebook could never motivate me to lose 30lbs. MFP did in less than 3 months. Suck on that Mark Zuckerberg!
