I'm addicted to this board.....LOL I just can't read enough about everything. I've logged in quite a few hours here since starting in March.... I know my dh is gonna get mad soon..... I tuck him in bed, say good night and here I am....
ANyones spouse/so get mad at them for spending so much time here (on the computer)?

I am addicted too, but my other addictions have me too busy to come here often LOL. So it`s 1/2 hour about twice a week. I visit a different board each time so in two weeks I cover the ones I want to.

I tend to check in whenever I'm on the computer for ANY reason. Pay the phone bill, check the boards...chat with daughter...check the boards... reward for getting the housework done? Check the boards...can't sleep? You guessed it!

Simply checking my mail and seeing the "New Message" notifications can suck me in! I'm enforcing some time limits now, but I can easily kick off a few replies several times a day...<sigh>

about 1/2 an hr after gym and 1/2 an hour before bed (everyday so far lol)

Way too much LOL! I usually sit here while I eat and read through messages.

I check it whenever I'm updating my Fitday information, which is 3-4 times per day.

honestly, WAY too much. but when i feel the need to eat something bad, i come here. it really helps me. i don't know how i managed before this... oh wait, that's right, i didn't! i am following the diet 100% better now than i did before i discovered these boards.

I start and end my day with you all! Thanks to everyone!

I spend a lot of time here. First thing in the morning..a bit after I get home from work...and before i go to bed lol

I'm in here even in my sleep.

My desk has become my dining table.

But can you blame me, everyone here is so wonderful.

Hugs,

Far, far too much and yes, dh is jealous!

I am on and off all day long... working from home.

I have I. A. (Internet Addiction).

I don't know if any of you remember Prodigy, but it was one of the very first online servers around. My husband worked for it way back when the Internet first went public and we got all our computer time completely FREE. I could be on the Intenet as much as I wanted. The only thing limiting my computer usage was the fact that it tied up the phone lines. Later, as soon as Internet cable came out, we signed up for that and the rest is history. I retired from teaching a year ago and it is now difficult to stay away from the computer. I am on several message boards and chats and I love to just surf the internet. It is the biggest source of information in the world. I have met people from all over the world on the computer and have even met some of them in person. I am also an avid ebayer. I buy and sell on ebay all the time. I buy diet and nutrition books as well as exercise and fitness books on ebay, read them and then resell them on ebay. I just bought a neat little system called Perfect Portions. It is a sectioned plate with a cover and shows you reasonable portion sizes. It's great for picnics or if you take your lunch to work. It would normally cost $20.00 from the manufacturer plus $5.00 s/h, but I bought it new on ebay for a total of $6.45.

Active Low Carber Forums is my favorite low carb message board because of the way it is set up into different categories. It is run very well. I realize that with thousands of hits everyday there are going to be lots of people with different personalities on here and sometimes there will be a personality clash, but there is so much stuff on here, everyone can find a niche'.

I figure I check the boards about 3 times a day. I look before work, after work, and right before bedtime. I can't help I want to be INFORMED!! This place lures you in. THAT'S A GOOD THING!!
