... A man invites you out to dinner. You invite him for a jog.
... You find yourself flexing your abs whenever you sit down, and wonder why people think your "constipated face" is weird.
... Instead of drinking games, you try work out games. (Especially Harry Potter ones! However many points each house scores, that's how many jumping jacks you do. Try it. It's nuts).
... You know what fitspo is.
... You are a label-reading extraordinaire.
... Things like fat people eating cake make you ANGRY.
... You know granola bars are really just candy bars... with oats.
... No tablespoon measure?! No peanut butter.0 -

Hahaha, my 4-year-old knows all about calories-in, calories-out now. He picks up one of my hand weights and says, Momma, I'm burning calories. And he asks, Momma, where do the calories go? LOL. Good question. I had to google it.-The word calorie is the number one word out of your mouth (and your 5 yr old tells you this)
when...
...you pass up birthday cake at work--this happened today
...you throw your child's uneaten cupcake in the trash instead of eating it--this happened tonight
...you work out even though you don't feel like it, and then you are so glad you did--this happened tonight 0 -
I woke up on my birthday and I knew that if I didn't go for a run, I wouldn't have the best day ever. So I ran on my birthday. This would have been LAUGHABLE a year ago!0

I can relate. I brought home Wendy's for my husband last night but didn't get anything for myself. He looked at me like I was crazy. By the way, I was STARVING, and had to drive for 2 miles alone in the car with those french fries. Not even a nibble! I kept chanting, do not eat the french fry. Almost home. Made it. Ha!... your hubby asks you to bring home some McDonald's meal when you're done @ the gym, and you do so, but only buy food for hubby, not for yourself.0 -

your boss gives you gourmet chocolates and you give them away without eating one.
you don't like to eat anything without knowing the nutrition information and referring to MFP to see how it fits into your day..you also insist on weigh out portions before you eat.
your coworkers start being apologetic when they invite you to go out to lunch because they know you're trying to lose weight and feel like they're tempting you, but don't want to exclude you either.
you have multiple conversations daily about exercise and nutrition with people who aren't on MFP.
you catch yourself tallying other people's calories when you eat with them.

Your partner walks into the room, looks at the TV that is frozen & has a message on it stating 'You have reached the end of the recording' & says "Ummm, your show is over" cause you were working out along with the instructor on TV but didn't feel that you got enough out of it so were still on the floor doing bicycle crunches
