    You get irrationally annoyed if someone steals a morsel off your plate or some of the grated cheese you have carefully set aside. I already weighed that!!!! It's MINE!!!!!

    I had to sit down and explain this to my boyfriend. "Listen honey. I no longer share stuff, ok? Please don't expect me to offer and please do not grab something if I don't".

    By the same token, don't offer me stuff. I don't want a lick or a taste of anything that is not mine, EVER. I am surprised at how often this annoys people.

    YES YES YES YES!! My kids (3yo and 1.5yo) steal my food and my husband laughs while I sulk. I logged it and now I'm going to starve!
    This makes me sad lol

    When they ask you where you want to eat and you start pulling up the restaurants website to find nutrition/calorie info to decide. (Done that three times this week)

    (this one is awkward, so if you are a prude look away now)

    You wonder at the caloric implications of err.. certain bedroom activities...

    You too, huh? So, I have thought about recording this in mapmyrun because it does exist. Mapmyrun is linked to MFP, though... all my friends would know too much about my activities : )

    When you have a separate photo albums in your phone for nutrition labels. (I take a picture of it before I take food out of the package to properly store it.) Also I have a folder of bookmarked nutritional information for restaurants I frequently go to.

    That is a great idea!

    When your co worker brings in something for you to "try" and you can't because you have no idea what is in it or how much it weighs

    When I lick the yogurt off the pull off foil lid.

    Those are my calories and if I have to log them...I'm going to eat every last one of them.

    I totally do that. And scrape every nook and cranny of the cup

    Haha yes! So me!

    When you go for frozen yogurt and weigh your bowl twice: once with just the yogurt, the other with fruit toppings so you can log correctly. And, the yogurt has to be the same calorie/fat content if you get more than one flavor.

    When you eat at Chipotle with a friend and log the calorie estimate into your phone before they finish assembling your food.
    This is so true, at any chain restaurant. Also, if you're a Christian diner, you're in the MFP zone when you log your food, then pray and proceed. I do it all the time!

    When you can honestly just have a bite of something and either feel satisfied or don't feel bad about chucking it because it tastes like a waste of calories. I've found that I am far more picky about what I will cram in to my maw now.

    I wish you could see me scraping off the stuck on bits of my oatmeal from the pot literally every morning

    Have you ever put something in your mouth and then spit it out even though it tastes sooo good? All because you don't want to swallow those extra calories? I did that with a kitkat... oops!

    Yeah I had a bite of something last night and even though I went way over my calories, I put that specific thing down because it was not worth the calories, lol.

    My husband brings me a cuppa and a piece of dark chocolate and tells me how many grams it is.

    When I put something from a packet into a jar (like almonds) I've started cutting out the barcode and taping it to the jar
