    When your three yr old daughter is sitting next to you and says " I'm watching calories with mama", like it's a movie.

    Also when you notice your shopping cart looks completely different because their isn't junk food in there any more. Yay!!

    You wake up in the middle of the night in a cold sweat because you forgot to close out your day:grumble:

    Ha ha!!! Too funny!!! I get concerned when a "friend" doesn't log in for a day or two!!!

    Your husband just assumes all your "friends" are imaginary. Just because I've not met them doesn't mean they're not real, honey!!!!

    This is SO true! Although it is my mother who's like..." Uhm, who are these people, again?? And how did you meet?" Lol. (Keep in mind my parents have NO computer, and don't text or use facebook or anything... so, she TRULY doesn't get it. ;)

    You are starting to look like the poor kid at school with giant hand me down baggy clothes.

    ^^^^^THIS - but boy does that feel good :)

    And, playing tug o war with myself on calories - "is that 140 calorie skinny mocha REALLY worth it?!?!"

    When people around you know that it's gonna take you longer to order and eat food because you have to log it :)

    you are excited to see new post and comments from friends :laugh:

    Sports bras have replaced your regular bras and underwear shopping has gone from looking for cute dainty undies to ones that wont give you wedgies when you're doing squats.

    This!

    Or when you realize you can feed you and your husband two weeks on fifty bucks... Veggies are cheap!

    You fight with your husband at a birthday dinner celebration because you have figured out EXACTLY what you are going to eat and worked out to have those calories...and he orders cheese fries! (The devil's creation!)

    Ooooh and in the middle of the grocery store you're explaining to your 5 year old why you simply cannot buy the kind of popcorn HE wants because there are too many calories, fat and salt! Mind you...I'm showing him this with the nutritional facts!

    signs you've been here too long...Binary's scary clown face doesn't freak you out anymore...

    this is hilarious! so many I can relate to!
    MFP is the first thing I open on my computer in the morning and the last thing I close at night.
    I always want to round up the calories or time on the treadmill/ elliptical so I push myself to 200 instead of 195 or whatever.
    I don't mind walking to/ from the gym it's a great warm up/ cool down
    I bring a 4 L jug of water to work (can't stand the water here!) every other day because I drink about 2L/ day
    I bring my gym bag to and from work every day
    I hate watching other people eat crap!
    my 4 year old monitors my progress by asking me if I'm going to or already exercised
    I can't wait to shovel/ cut grass/ clean because of the calorie burn
    I have "goal" clothes that I try on regularly to see my progress
    I'm worried about not fitting into my bridesmaid dress (it's going to be too big, not too small!)

    When you read posts and understand what all the initials mean...NSV, HRM, 30DS, etc...

    And about the bumping uglies post...SO glad I wasn't eating or drinking anything when I read that. :laugh: And Binary, for some reason "scary clown" comes to mind (which will only really make sense if you've seen the movie "Over the Hedge").

    6) You talk to your TV workout instructor.

    Doing the 30 Day Shred the other day

    Jillian: "I can hear you, you're screaming, panting, groaning..."
    Me: "Only for you baby."
    :laugh:

    -ahem- I don't remember the exact thing that Jillian said, but close enough.
    ^ Hahahaha. I always cuss her out.

    "JUST A COUPLE MORE" ....15 is not a couple, Killian.

    "GET A LITTLE LOWER" ...F**k you! Okay!

    Ahaha, I called her a lying *kitten* the other day when she said "just a couple more..."

    BUWHAHAHAHA.

    I cuss her out so bad...LOL

    You're constantly cold because you lost a lot of weight.
    You look at yourself in the mirror between sets at the gym... between EVERY sets.

    Sports bras are not just for when you have company spending the night!! They are usually always in the washer/dryer/waiting to be folded. LOL I use to own one sports bra for the few times a year when we would have company spend the night. ( I refuse to wear a bra between shower and bed unless theres company over) Now I own 4 and I am constintly reminding my hunnie to make sure I have one clean! hahaha

    I love this!!!! All of this is so true, I find myself playing tug of war with the cals and then logging things just to see how many cals/fat it has before I eat it, just to erase it all and start over because it was to much!

    This topic is hilarious! I've only been on here a week and I already recognize most of these signs (except I don't look like the poor boy (girl) in over-sized clothes yet! Thanks for the laugh!

    You no longer let your Husband mow the lawn because you once strapped on your HRM and found out it burns a ton of calories. Same for washing the cars.

    ^^This! I mowed our almost 1/3 acre lawn, with the push mower and NOT using the self propelled thing, because we were going out to eat. 2 hours, one blister and a cute turtle on a different journey later, i was like YES, I did it!! :smile:

    This!!! I so love mowing the lawn and general gardening!

    i would LOVE to mow... but i have an allergy to fresh cut grass (have all my life) so our yard would look a bit wonky because the mower would veer every time i sneeze :(

    You find yourself squeezing in squat, push-ups, jump jacks, etc. in between all your daily activities, to boost your cardio.

    When your daughter asks you how far did you run tonight/ how many calories did you burn mom?

    Not going out for drinks/eating out because your food diary is public and I don't want to log it.(shudder)

    Using WAAAAY too much water between the extra showers and gross gym clothes that pile up.

    Also when you get home from the gym you tell your spouse how far/how many cals burned/ and then proceed to show him your soaking wet shirt and sports bra and get disappointed that he is not giddy with the same excitement you are!

    Love this!!!

    When my husband asks "Babe, I'm running to the store! Do you have enough calories left for a snack if I get you something?" (Cracks me up everytime)

    When you don't go out to eat til you've planned exactly what you are going to eat at that particular place because you've spent a hour looking at the menu and finding the calorie content!
