    No, I don't really notice. I'm mostly wrapped up in more important thoughts like how to avoid talking to most people all day, whether or not 7-eleven will ever bring back that mocha Slurpee they had, and if it's true that I only attract married men.

    I also went through a period where id only meat married women....and no I didn't use the wrong word

    Yes! I notice everyone. At work I now talk about calories and mfp. I will look at labels before I eat things. My coworkers have started asking how many calories is in this and that. I hope they dont think I am judging them! I not by anymeans Iam the biggest as far as bodyweight there.

    I think my friends get tired of hearing me talk about calories and exercise constantly. I can't help it, i'm obsessed lol.

    oh, hell yeah! a coworker brought a dozen donuts to work this morning & he was trying to tell me it was okay to eat one (i ended up eating one - but only one! a victory for me, seriously) and i was like "um, no, ONE donut is like one meal for me!" ridiculous.

    My mom and I went to a little place that just opened here that is kind of like a Panera. They have the calories listed on the menu for everything; even if it's over 1,000 calories. You would think seeing 1,000+ calories listed next to something would make you think "No, I shouldn't order that."

    I totally watched things come out of the kitchen, thought which item it may have been, and then watched who the person it was that it went to. I wouldn't say anything out loud, but it just kind of makes me sad how people don't want to try to be slightly healthier now that I know I did it, and it's not impossible.

    But I also voice my opinion on "healthy" things that I don't like. Like my boyfriend just told me he wanted to try Body by Vi, and I totally snapped out my opinion on that "diet fad". It's a protein shake, stop thinking you're being fancy and on some magic weightloss thing.

    I notice, but I have been there. I don't need to say anything to anyone as hopefully They will be able to see what I eat and how I change

    I've avoided going out to eat just for that reason. Most places don't have calories listed on the menu so it makes it a guessing game. Then finally you decide on something but you have to make them take all the toppings off, get a veggie on the side and maybe splurge on a diet coke. in the end what you've essentially ordered is a plain chicken breast thats still loaded with sodium and over cooked broccoli for $9.99.
