    Package up cookies as soon as they are cool to be given away so that I don't snack on them (I develop and test recipes, always baking around!)

    Oh my goodness - you must be the willpower Queen!

    When you can drive through McDonald's and only order a medium sugar free french vanilla ice coffee without a second thought while everyone else is ordering double cheeseburgers.

    When I could drive by Dunkin Donuts and not waste any drooling on wishing for a donut, lol.

    When you're about to go on a camping trip and you're excited to pack fruits, healthy snacks, water, turkey burgers, and more kinds of healthy foods for the week, and not to forget packing your measuring spoons, cups, and scale, as well as plan out how to exercise that week. Now that's an achievement.

    You spend your Friday night at the gym followed by reading Women's Health mag whilst drinking a skinny chai latte.

    When you get grumpy for missing a workout day.

    When you get grumpy when you eat later than planned.

    When someone offers you something you haven't planned for and you don't mind declining it.

    When you go to the gym on a Friday night.

    When you ENJOY working out harder than the previous time.

    When your workout clothes are your new favourite outfit.

    When you're more excited about where you've booked for your honeymoon because it has a fully equipped gym and you can still workout every day than you are because it's your honeymoon and there won't be any kids there!

    I get married in 8 weeks! :laugh:

    you refuse one bite of Nandos gooey caramel cheesecake offered to you by a friend because you didn't get a pudding, and stick with your water instead. :smooched:

    I knew I was serious about it this time because I didn't tell anyone I was doing it. I just joined a gym and started going. I usually would make a big presentation of it and wouldn't follow through. This time I just did it. No fanfare.

    Yup - just doing it for me too. Although people are noticing my new sneakers and the kitchen scale is back on the counter.

    You know that there are 3.44 calories in one M. As in M&M. And you can stretch a snack size bag of M&M's for days doling out a couple of M's a day.as a treat.

    Does the name Pavlov ring a bell?

    You walk past the wine aisle in the supermarket because you know how long you have to walk to earn those calories in just one glass. You worry about going on vacation in November because the hotel doesn't have a gym.You work out how many calories are in a family Sunday lunch before you eat it. You dream of cheese salad instead of a bag of Haribos. You miss your daily exercise when you don't do it. You dream BIG instead of settling for just mediocre.You see the results and just want more.

    Hilarious and oh so true. There were so many I found myself nodding at and thinking "yep I do that"!

    I ate out yesterday (rare thing) and my other half asked me if I was going to pull my food scales out of my bag :noway: (I didn't really take them with me but got me thinking).

    Dont share food with the husband?? :huh:

    We share all the time, but since I have started weighing my portions he doesnt get to grab a bite from my plate, neither shift something from his plate to mine :bigsmile:

    You literally body block your kids from taking a piece of something you've already counted or measured out. I know sharing is caring and all of that schlockeroo, but *kitten* gets serious when it comes to food!

    I don't have kids, but I do have a boyfriend, and he loves to eat my food. He's kinda helping in calorie reduction I guess haha. I shout at him, "You're eating my calories!" and he just laughs and takes another bite. But he's very supportive and pokes at me when I don't want to go to the gym.

    Is it scary that I thought about going to my favorite buffet place and actually bring my scale and weigh my food during the carb up.

    ..... You take your salad dressing to dinner in your purse. :drinker:

    ..... Your doctor says eliminate dairy or bread from your diet and you've already done it. :smile:

    ...... Your kids say, "Mommy, we are TIRED of playing, can we go inside now?" :bigsmile:

    ..... Your husband says, in a worried voice, "is that a lump?" You say, "no, it's a BONE!" FIST PUMP! :glasses:

    ...... There are whole parts of the grocery store that you haven't been in for ages. :noway:

    ...... Getting injured means more than pain, it might impact your WORKOUT! :sad:

    ..... It's not a diet. It's just your life. :heart: :heart: :heart:

    But wait, there's more .....


    ...... You set your alarm on the weekends to get a spot at the pool (or gym).

    ...... You seriously consider the recipe for cauliflower pizza crust.

    ...... You can't stand to read that people want to. "Loose" weight.

    ...... You give the nutritional info on your dogs food a lot of thought.

    ..... You visit the fruit/veggie aisle more than the frozen food aisle.

    ...... Your underwear sizes begin to remind you of a NASA Countdown, "10, 9, 8, 7, 6..."

    You go out for drinks for a work function on a rare night out with babysitters organised....and leave early because you've got to be at the gym early in the morning.
