    When you attend a nutrition class and the instructor gets annoyed because you know the answers to almost all of her questions because of the forums on MFP. Then when she asks you after class how you know that much and you say you have MFP. Apparently the final week of class she MFP and encourages us to use it. I'm ahead of the game. :smiley:

    Talking to a female coworker about dinner plans and she (jokingly...I think??) Told me I could have her for dessert.

    My first thought was "Probably doesn't fit my macros."

    My boyfriend and I holding up the server When we went out to eat...we took forever to order cause we were too busy using MFP to look up half the menu.

    MFP forums are my reading material. I read as much as I possibly can here. Even when warming up on the treadmill, my trainer asks me: "What are you doing? Reading MFP forums AGAIN?!" :mrgreen:

    I damn well spend too much time on MFP, I need to go get a life!! Just another damn addiction!! Like & hate it, hate the waste of time!! I mean who really cares about some random person in Timbuktu.( who will get on a plane and go to some random persons funeral just saying, not being mean) We just want to read something interesting & engaging, & get our *kitten* together!! with what ever solution, preferably something, quick, easy,and fast!! & just maybe, meet a true friend :) cannot have too many real friends right :)

    you know you talk about MFP too much when you type an upper case M on your phone and it automatically suggests MFP as the word you're going to type. :tongue:

    MFP is always open in a browser on several computers in my house.

    It stresses me out when I cook for the family and have to guess how much of the oil from the pan ended up in my serving. Same with marinades when I am grilling.

    Last night my 8 year old son was looking at the nutrition label on my ice cream, and he asked me why I eat ice cream every night even though it is so high in sugar and so low in protein.

    I know what a liquid measurement meniscus is.

    The worst thing about cardio is not actually doing it, it is guessing how many calories the cardio actually burned and how it has affected my metabolism.

    Every night ends with contemplating which food will optimally finish off my macros.

    MFP is the only "social media" that I participate in.

    When you come to check comments on your status like all day! Or likes!

    When your husband no longer makes you come serve yourself bc you have to measure and asks intead how much do you want me to measure out.

    when you mentioned things that are said on mfp to friends and family.

    When you wake up on weigh day weigh yourself 4 x before updating your loss.

    when you think too much on what your next status update will be.

    when you learn how to calculate half of half a portion for your calories.

    when you know the calorie burn for multiple exercises by heart!




    haha yup! all this!

    When your mom has given up trying to remember your macros
    when you suspiciously look at any food that comes near you sans nutrition label
    when you stand in front of the fridge with the app open, constantly

    When you dream that you're on MFP.

    Can I blame the fever I have?

    When you start looking at everything as calorie numbers instead of actual pieces of food.
