Hahah... anyone else pondered this? I know it's crazy BUT when you're counting every calorie, every calorie counts! Never actually deducted it, but funny thoughts like this do cross my mind from time to time. Anyone else as crazy as me? :laugh: :noway:

Sometimes I do. And it has worked for me. So bam!0

Bend down and pick it up, that will probably burn 1 calorie, then you can eat it back.0

When I go to say McDonalds and order like a wrap - I ask for no cheese and sauce on the side, but still log as if I got everything on it. I find it better to overlog so i can 'bite' out of a ton of stuff later haha0

Dropping it is zero calories, picking it up off the floor is 0.5 calories, but if you clean and jerk it - its 0.83 calories0

I'm like that too. Like when sb takes a bite of what I'm eating after I weighed it, I'm thinking "heyyy, I just logged that! Now, since I don't know how much you took, I can't deduce it. Sad." but I don't say anything, I just smile and pretend I'm not crazy and obsessed lol0 -
I DO THIS TOO! Or at least, I think about it, lol. If something happens to the portion I've logged, I just log the full amount anyways and pretend I ate it all. It has made me much less likely to share my food, though! It's like MINE THIS IS ALL MIIIIIINE!!!!!0

I don't know if I'm crazy, but I'm probably driving my family crazy. Did you measure this? How much of that did you use? :bigsmile:0

I just cut my toenails...should I re-weigh myself !!??0

I'm totally guilty of thinking that! What makes it worse, is my hubby is also on MFP and so we have these kind of conversations all the time....we have to run the dishwasher once a day because it fills up with measuring cups so fast!
How about the "I weighed myself and then went pee, I better reweigh myself." I'm totally guilty of that!0 -

Bend & Snap!! I should try this, make it quick for the 5 second rule too.0 -

I rarely share anymore either lol. If I log it, I'm going to enjoy EVERY.DANG.CALORIE. Minus the crumbs, but usually those fall in my bra anyways. Night time snack, already calculated!0 -

Depends on how long they were. If they were curled over the top :huh: Yes. Regular size, eh, will the 1/8th of an ounce count? HELL YES!0 -

Lick that crumb of cheese off the floor!!! Cheese is never to be wasted! Anything else... Eh sure deduct it, I wonder the same thing... But cheese... 5 second rule is ALWAYS legit for cheese!0
-
But if I lick it off the floor, how do I calculate the calories in the dirt that probably stuck to it? Another freakin calorie I'd have to run a mile to burn! :sad:0
