Someone suggest you try something and your response is; "You know how many calories are in that thing."
This for me plus, is it glutten free??0 -
When someone blurts out, "You going to be fat as me." But you know your not because you have made room for the sinful dessert ahead of time by prelogging and you know how many calories was in it before it hit your mouth. And you know that your diary will say, "IF everyday was like today you would be 10 pounds heavier." However you and your diary know that you don't eat like a pig everyday, only on the holidays...6

You've seen every forum fight, debate, meme, gif, cleanse, version of low-carb/high-carb/low fat/high fat miracle diet being touted as THE way to lose weight and learnt to never, ever under any circumstances go into a bang/date/avoid thread sohelpyougod.3

A romantic date is when your boyfriend cooks for you and leaves all the UPCs or food labels out for you to scan/log,6
-
when...
you pre-log your Christmas food and plan the food according to its calories that day!
the first thing you think about before coffee is, what will I eat and log today?1 -
When you have reached your target weight loss and are now stressing that the scales have stopped going down!0
-
So cute. My hubby has started doing this, finally :-)0

LOL I love this.1 -
You have an uncanny ability to scoop/grab the exact serving size on the first go +/- 2grams. I can do this with cream cheese, hummus, cereal, and vegetables.4

Crappy foods no longer tempt.
If I'm going to indulge on calories is going to be homemade/made from scratch with high quality ingredients and love! Damitt! LoL!
YES! I took a small bite out of a cookie in the break room. It wasn't as good as I thought it would be and threw the rest in the trash. Saving my calories for the GOOD stuff!!0 -

Ha Ha, that is awesome. My hubby doesn't cook. I wish he did!0 -
. . . your first handful of shredded cheese weighs exactly 28 grams, every time.4
-
You know where about your dinner is in your recent foods list.1
-
you know from memory what a serving size of every food you eat is down to the gram.3

Bump to come back to. And I dont share food with my dog anymore because i have already counted those cals and i WANT every bit of it lol. But dont feel bad for my pup because my hubby shares0
-
So many of these I'm like "yeah, me too!"
Although I weigh my breakfast cereal and various other things I can almost measure with my eyes.
I won't eat anything new that doesn't have a barcode or is easy enough to count.
If anyone cooks for me they will leave the packets out for me to scan!0 -
When you think in terms of macros such as.... hmm what protien will i have
With lunch today? or damn! I could sure use some carbs right now!0 -

My poor dog has lost weight as well.. I look at her and say " i logged it I eat it! "0 -
1. When someone asks: Have you logged that?
2. When you eat based on macros.
3. Logging something to see if you should eat it
4. Not letting anyone eat one of your 30 chips. Lol!
I totally get #4. My husband must think I am so selfish because when he reaches for anything on my plate I give him a very serious look and tell him to step away1 -
you basically have learned the metric system due to logging food :laugh:
before logging i did not know an ounce was 28g but now i can flip back and forth in my head for how much i need4 -
I've been logging so long that other people ask me to help them with their MFP profiles. I showed my husband how to add a recipe, and help people download the app and set up a profile on a nearly daily basis.0

when you know your under your goal-before you are done the day when you don't desire bad foods0
-
You take a pee and know how much weight you just lost.4

Love this thread!0
-
All of you make me feel so normal, or at least give me comfort in knowing I'm not the only one who isn't normal.<3 I seriously thought I was the only one who did some of these things!
Anywho, to contribute to this thread:
When you're eating out and have absolutely NO desire for junk food (cakes, etc.) because you know the calories in it just isn't worth all the other stuff you could eat there if you simply say no to just that one small serving.2 -
You hate sharing food 'cause it messes up your macros.
And spilling drinks.
so true!!1 -
