    1. You set the alarm for 5:00 am to go workout and your husband calls you crazy.
    2. The trainers at the gym say, "hey, you're here again?"
    3. Everybody knows when I haven't gotten a workout... I'm a b*tch!
    4. Your workout clothes drawer is fuller than your regular clothes drawer.

    1) You wonder why it was you hired a kid to mow your lawn because you are missing that calorie burn
    2) You are more willing to buy workout clothes then clothes for work, going out, etc.
    3) Your plans for a Friday night are to get in an "extra" burn in, because being at the gym is where you want to be
    4) Everyone at work knows that you are getting a package with boxing/training gloves, cause it's all you talked about for 3 days!
    5) The people at the gym know exactly how you like your water pre and post workout... without asking!

    ... should I go on?!? :blushing: :wink: :laugh:

    How serious is the addiction when you resemble just about all of these? Plus some more VVVV

    Closed the gym down Fri, Sat AND Sun.
    more workout clothes than regular.
    Burns are consistently twice what anyone you know burns.
    You own more running shoes than regular shoes and when you rotate them out, they go in the "wear to work" pile cause they still feel good after several hundred miles.
    You make sure people are aware that coming to see them prevented you from finishing your workout.
    You forget that It's your day off so you eat twice what you should then realize you have to go to the gym to work them back off.
    DEADLIFTS!!!

    When your husband says he's going to follow you the next time you say you are going to the gym because he thinks there must be another guy, cause no one can spend that much time at the gym :)

    ....when squatting on a friday night is more appealing than beers.

    ....when the pain of a big session is again more appealing than beers.

    ...when you get anxious and/or angry that unforseen events lead to you missing your farken session for the day!! then you do the absolute most you can to get there the next day, and even skip a rest day in order to get the program back onto the right days. :p

    'Rest' days have 'only' 300 calorie burns
    You keep getting up earlier in the morning to accommodate the longer workouts
    You get edgy when you aren't getting enough activity in for the day
    You try to keep your NET calories for the day negative as long as you can while still eating normal meals
