    When you tell your kid to run to the kitchen and dig a box/bag out of the trash and bring it to you so you can log the nutrition info from it.

    You get excited about eating healthy things so you can be proud to log them later.

    You check the database before eating to see how many calories you are about to consume and then adjust your portion size so you don't go over your calories for the day! :embarassed:

    ABSOLUTELY!!! :laugh:

    I think of calories as currency!

    Me too, Yoovie - me, too.

    You know you're an MFP junkie when... you decide how much to eat based on how much of a workout you think you can stand that day...

    Go to have a snack and it won't scan. You give it three tries. If it still isn't found in the data bank, you put it down and go for something that is.

    Bwahahaha! I love this^^

    I was freaking out then I was going up north, I was afraid I would be able to log in & keep my days. It's also the first & last thing I check & whenever someone cooks for me I always ask them a bunch of questions about what, how much & so on. And I will totally exercise more to try to stay under or have a treat. I even logged in when I was at a bar eating bar food, then had to go dance it off. I also love that my boss isn’t on here to see how much I am. :laugh:

    you exercise and count the calories to get rid of the "bad" food you ate or you count the 100 calorie packs away

    You look up the restaurant before going out so you know what you will order.

    Yep, you caught me.

    Also when I wake up in the middle of the night and first thing I do is check my MFP then roll over and go back to sleep.

    When you even scan your pack of gum to count those calories.
    Also when you enter every single ingredient you used to make a home made meal including the parsley flakes you added for color :happy:

    when you double check about 3 times before going to bed that you hit Complete this Entry so you don't miss your logging on for so many days in a row :)

    (Haven't gotten to the end of thread, so if this was answered already I apologize)

    It doesn't go off of if you hit complete this entry. It's strictly if you are on their site on your account.

    On that note:

    ...when you wake up extremely late after a fun weekend/ nap and you freak out that you haven't logged in for almost 24 hours. (That was me this last weekend :embarassed: )

    Just thought of something better! (because I literally just did this)

    When you're playing on the MFP message boards on the desktop, while logging in a food on the app using your phone.

    When you avoid homework by perusing the MFP message boards rather than your facebook feed!
