too late.
Anyhow, the most valuable part of mfp for me has been in helping me enforce some reasonable, no, effective portion control. Now I "know" what/how much I'm eating, because I'm careful enough to measure it so I can record it. Before, it (portion control) was determined by other factors like how ***starvin*** I was, and that led to weight gain.
If you're getting your portion control, or exercise activity or combination of the two realized by other means, you're losing weight without the need for mfp and more power to you.
There are other aspects to the tool and the weight losing process like the camaraderie of shared effort and sacrifice. I'll just share that here in this thread instead then.
