Calorie obsession...

MissGeorgiaPeachy

I just had a moment of clarity! Never in my LIFE did I think I would be one of "those people" who are obsessed with calories, but tonight just took the unobtainable sugar/carb/calorie-free chocolate cake!

I lost internet.

I couldn't log my calories.

I must have stomped around for a good hour. (I should log that in my exercise tracker!! j/k)

I'm thinking maybe I've been a little too obsessed and I might need to calm down.

My boyfriend got really upset with me cuz I sat and went through the whole menu at Logans Roadhouse logging it in to see what had the least amount of calories. lol...I check everything before I eat it! It is VErY addictive!

Same here! I was just at work and telling my friend (who isn't dieting) how many calories each of my snacks has and giving her crap about the potato salad and puppy chow she was eating! She finally told me to shut up but it's just second nature now. But I figure it keeps me on track and I'm not going to try to lighten up!

I do it too. I've been using MFP for 17 days now and I've become a junkie. I'm reading labels on everything and counting calories on everything as well. My husband says I'm driving everyone crazy telling them how many calories are in whatever they are deciding to eat, but on an up note, I'm cooking more healthy and my family is eating more healthy and they are losing weight with me even if they aren't trying to :-) Whatever works is all I can say...and this seems to be working for me.

Hahaha! That totally sounds like something I would do! I couldn't set foot into a Logan's though because the Yeast Roll Temptation is tooooo strong!

"Junkie!" That's the right word! I am doing the same thing, but in my case, my obsession has caused my fiancee to read everything he eats too, but he still eats it! At least he's "aware" now. I am happy for you and your family! That's all the more years you'll get to spend together.
