A twist on Jeff Foxworthy's, "...you might be a redneck"; let's have some fun and come up with a one-liner that indicates a person might be addicted to MFP.

Example:

When someone you know is struggling with weight loss and is frustrated with their plateau.... you respond, 'are you eating your calories back.'..... you might be addicted to MFP.

-or-

When you spend more time on MFP than on FB, .... you might be addicted to MFP.

    I definitely spend more time on here than on Facebook. It's just so nice to commune with people who are all working toward the same thing!

    If immediately after "sexy time" you roll over, grab your smartphone and log it, you might be addicted to MFP.

    ...when you have a friend log on for you the 3 days you are going to be camping without phone or internet access so it doesn't mess up the number of consecutive days you have logged in.

    If you talk to people about your "weight loss journey" instead of "diet", you might be addicted to MFP.

    You can log "sexy time"? Brilliant....I'll get right on that. :-P

    If you you send your waiter back to the kitchen to for the third time, this time to ask the chef "what KIND of oil is it cooked in," ...you could be addicted to MFP.

    Remind me when I did this,

    Went to the grocery store, to the deli counter and asked the associate, "Do you have a nutritional chart showing the calories?"...She looked me funny.

    -or-

    If you do a internet search for your favorite restaurant's nutritional menu.... you might be addicted to MFP.

    Now this IS good! I sooooo should have done this last week. I am back on day five and should be on day 80!!
    Anyway, you know when you are addicted to MFP, when you leave the table mid-eat to check how many calories you have left!!

    You may be addicted to MFP when you may have either left your phone at work OR lost it. Either way you must have MFP and your mobile app-so you go buy a new phone the next day! My husband did this and YES THE PHONE WAS FOUND AT HIS WORK THE SAME DAY! :)
