You might be a fitness pal if.........Jokes!

....if you find yourself digging, scraping, and licking the bottom of a greek yogurt cup to get every last bit because, hey, you already entered the calories into your food diary and you might as well get your money's worth!

^ Guilty!


... if you jump on the MFP website before opening up your work email in the morning.

Guilty of Both

roll your eyes when you see someone burned 100 calories doing 5 minutes of "calisthetis, vigorous" :noway: bc u know it doesnt make sense :laugh:

When you think " why is my husband going for a run, when he doesnt have an MFP account?"

omgggggggggg :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

u judge ppls grocery carts wondering why they're eating X calories

:huh:

You stop in a convenience store for coffee and start eyeing the candy bars, then think "I haven't had enough protein today, maybe I should get a protein bar instead." Who the hell does this?! Well, I did. :huh:

Also, talking about your friends on your FL like you've actually spent the day hanging out with them IRL.

I'm guilty of about 95% of the things posted in this thread! :bigsmile:

.....if you get outta bed early just to see what the scale says!

But first you have to take a potty break! Don't want any excess fluid messing with the count.

... if you jump on the MFP website before opening up your work email in the morning.

^^^ This is so me.

...if the F5 key on your keyboard is getting worn off from all the refreshing you "need" to do.

Wait!? You can refresh with F5? I love you!

I didn't know that either. I love keystrokes but I don't know any of the F# keys. woo!

Its official! I am now a fitness pal. Thanks for sharing the F5 button. You guys ROCK!

Don't forget the windows+L combination keys to make your screen immediately dark if someone walks in on you at work and you're reading MFP. Now of course I've NEVER had that happen, but just in case some of you need a trick or two

Even better just use windows+d and it minimizes everything and just shows your desktop without locking you out

Awesome! Thanks

.....if your partner makes you a meal and you make them get the food packets out the trash so you can log it

Totally guilty of this!!!

If you stand looking at packages in the grocery store over and over to make sure that the ingredients/calories are mfp approved

If everyone in the house gets their meal after all items have been weighed.

AND

If, after weighing an item, it is off by just 1/2 an ounce, you rush back to change your portion to get back those 20 cals to spend on something later. All this being done, BEFORE eating your delicious hot meal!

LOL I'm totally guilty of this as well. pfft, hahahah!

some food falls off your plate and you nearly punch your dog in the head so you can get to it first and eat it before he does.
Not caring that it fell on the floor

Oh yeah, I think she just learned that she really cannot beat me, to get the food that is mine!

bump

...if you took your food scale 600 miles away from your home to Thanksgiving dinner at your parents' house so you could weigh your foods and log your calories accordingly.

If you can name the person who always says "Just break up" or feel compelled to answer "hookers and blow" to random questions

The F5 thing doesn't work on macs. You can always do Control (Command)+R on any program and it refreshes the page.

... you drop something on the floor but don't bend down to pick it up because you've already exceeded your exercise target for today?
