    When your a few minutes late coming back from your break at work because you walked a little farther than you should have. Now you can log 13 min of brisk walking instead of 10.... Woohoo!!

    Hahaha!!! Yep I'm a MFP addict and im not ashamed :smile: Almost everything said applies to me.

    I'm definitely an addict. I noticed it the other day... I was about to eat a cupcake brought in to work by a colleague, but decided against it because I didn't want to let my MFP friends down! LOL

    When you pull out your phone at the table to log what you are about to eat. Or you are at a restaurant and look up menu items before you order and base your choice on nutritional content. My husband says I am obsessed!

    I log before I eat to see how it will affect everything... then go back and adjust if I didn’t eat it all... Then go back to see if I adjusted properly, then check things over one more time…

    your boyfriend says, "Can you please get off of myfitnesspal and spend some time with me?? You've been on that app for the past 2 hours!" LOL

    YES!!! That is my guy all the way! Lol!!

    You know you're addicted to MFP when you've wasted the better part of your workday on the latest enthralling chapter of an HCG or exercise calories debate. Or when you get upset because you had a meeting and missed the thread blow-up of the day. :laugh:

    You are at the gym and can't wait to get home to log in your exercise diary.

    When you're logging in that exercise on the MFP app WHILE you are at the gym! :laugh:

    I totally do this!

    HELLO...........doing this now..............
  • When you find yourself calculating the calorie content of other peoples meals in your head, haha!

    My family will just pick up random items in the shopping centre and ask me how many calories they contain :)

    You wake up in the middle of the night to pee (from all that water) and check your MFP for any new status updates.

    Guilty. :)

    Done that.

    How about you have your phone with you on the elliptical and when you get off the first thing you do is go onto MFP and log in your workout! LOL That is definitely me!

    You remember you have a facebook account and decide to check it so your "real" friends know you're alive and you type in www.myfacebook.com.

    I have done this twice. :laugh:

    I've also found that I've memorized the calorie number of my favorite snacks (string cheese + Greek yogurt = 200 cal, etc.).
