    You take a package of crystal light to the bar with you to mix with the lowest calorie vodka you can find because if you are going to drink your calories, you want the calories in the alcohol and not in the juice.

    Genius!!

    if you log in a recipe that is suppose to have 10 servings then panic after you cook it because the serving size would be too small to satisfy you. So you go ahead and cut it into 8 servings but still only count it as a 10 serving meal because the calorie difference cant be that different , right???............dont lie we have all done it :)

  • You make your SO make you peanut butter crackers, and only 10 crackers and using specifically no more than 2 tbsp of peanut butter because that's how you logged it, and any more will make you go over your calories for the day.

    You know the calorie counts of some foods off the top of your head (I found myself quoting calorie counts to a colleague the other day :noway: )

    If your drive home includes figuring out calories in your head.

    If you don't text and drive, but on occasion you have MFPed and driven. :noway:

    if you've never met some of the people in your phone contacts list... and some of them you have because they flew halfway across the nation to meet you (:heart: ya Christi!)

    If there is a tiny part of you that is happy about the recent breakup because it means less eating out and more staying on track.
