Is anyone as obsessed as me??

I am a complete and utter convert to this site and calorie counting.
I love that I can talk random crap to great people, have a never ending support network (usually someone is awake somewhere in the world!). I can vent, chat, and boast about my successes without feeling superior, annoying anybody or causing upset. I can offer support and wisdom (lacking on this one) to like-minded people who all have the same goals and aspirations as me - to get healthy, live longer and feel great.
There is just one issue - I can't stop talking about the site or recommending it to family/friends/colleagues or random people... Is my obsession getting too much?!

I was like that in the beginning. Now that I've been here for over a year I have calmed down a bit. Hope your still here in a year. I've seen so many disappear.:drinker:0

I recommend it to anyone who's trying to lose weight, but other than that I don't talk about it too much.
Though, I become obsessed with counting calories every time I try to diet. I'm on here like 10 times a day.0 -
I adore this site and use it every day - it really helps when you complete a days logging and it suggests a weight you might achieve if you ate that days meals every day... i find the forums incredibly useful and the food and exercise trackers are great.
only wish they had zumba as an exercise but i use a zumba calorie counter and add it myself.
i have recommended this site to anyone who will listen! top notch x0 -
i am about eating clean, lifting and running moderately and regularly.0

Me too! But I haven't really been able to convince anyone to get on it except my Dad. I think it's healthy to "obsess" over this because it keeps you focused and motivated. If I'm not thinking about it and not logging my foods, I'm probably not following my plan because I'm too new to it to be able to program myself to eat right or continue to lose my weight without tracking it. I also like it even more than Facebook because here we share a common goal and it's much more productive.0
