    When you have logged for a 1000 days and you have some friends that have even more

    When you instantly know this poster hasn't actually logged in for 1,000 days because you've been here longer, haven't missed a day, and are only at 715 :wink:

    When you take lengthy breaks from the main forum because it annoys you.

    When you have people who dislike you for whatever reason.

    When you can take a break from logging your food for two weeks and not gain weight because you have a good idea of portion sizes/calories.

    *You know why it is truly funny that 1 lb of paper weighs more than 1 lb of feathers because it is harder to carry
    *Tae-Bo
    *Late nights on the boards used to be unmoderated, especially on the weekends
    *You remember a time before any other sites or services were linked to this one
    *You remember when Steven was the new mod and you used to send issues directly to Mike
    *Even the new people on your friend list are mostly reincarnations of users that have been on this site for years....

    You no longer give positive reinforcement (or any) for cleaning, shopping, food prep, gardening, ride mowing, etc if it shows up on your news feed.
  • When you look up a restaurant's menu beforehand and log in what you're going to eat before you even get there.

    ...you get upset that you are only on day 570 of consecutive logins and haven't hit 1000 yet because you want to "level up"
    ...you plan your friday night dinner dates around what foods you can find in the MFP database "Bobby's Pizza Joint? Local fav? sorry.....no go...."
    ...if you forget to track your water for the day, you go apesh**....
    ...you balance your calories more than your checkbook :embarassed:

    ...when you dig boxes and wrappers out of the recycling bin to get the correct spelling of the item and/or the calorie count off the nutrition label so you can log it precisely. :laugh:

    when your significant other made dinner and either saved the bar codes so you can scan them, or weighed out the meat so you can input it properly.

    ... you've worn a heart rate monitor to shovel snow or mow the lawn
    ... you've Googled "how to cut a pizza in sixes"
    ... you've checked the exercise database to see if you can add your amorous activities
    ... you've considered wearing a heart rate monitor during said activities
    ... you've taken apart a sandwich so you can weigh the components separately


    LMAO!

    When you can accurately predict the contents of a thread just by reading the (same old, tired, repetitive) thread title.

    "WHAT AM I DOING WRONG?!!?" -Poster probably hasn't lost weight for 3.5 days and is freaking out. If it's an actual weight loss stall, most likely is either overeating and/or underexercising - but will be shocked and offended if you happen to mention this. They will probably report you and you will get banned for trying to be helpful.

    "ALWAYS SO HUNGRY" -Poster is eating 400-800 calories a day or some other ludicrous amount and/or isn't eating exercise calories back and/or has set some insane goal.

    "HOW DOES MY ROUTINE LOOK" -Poster has concocted a random workout routine that is comprised of bicep curls with milk jugs, crunches, bikram yoga and zumba. And invariably calls it strength training.

    "CAN'T EAT XXXX CALORIES" -Poster got 150lbs overweight but then suddenly can't figure out how to eat 1200 calories a day. I assume most of these posts are humblebragging about their dedication and/or (even worse) are pro-ana people.

    "IS EATING 0-1000 CALORIES A DAY OKAY??!?" -Poster knows it's not okay or they wouldn't be asking. Yet they are guaranteed to be defensive and often offended when everyone answers their plain question in a truthful manner.

    "I FEEL LIKE GIVING UP" -Poster is a thinly veiled attention *kitten*. If you were going to give up, you'd just give up. If you were going to keep kicking *kitten*, you'd keep on kicking *kitten*. If you make a thread like this, you are simply throwing a pity party for yourself. Oh, woe is me.

    "HELP, GAINED <small amount of weight> FROM BINGE" -Poster invariably ate a bunch of carbs and/or salty food and thinks they have magically gained 5lbs of fat overnight. Responses will generally prod the user to weigh in less often, despite the fact that weighing every day would accustom the average person to the daily weight fluctuations that effect everyone.

    "HOW MUCH DOES IT LOOK LIKE I WEIGH" -Poster is a teenage attention *kitten*.

    "EVERYBODY HERE IS SO MEAN" -Poster has been on the internet for two whole weeks and is highly offended by all of the helpful posters that will correct people spouting myths and misinformation. Poster just wants support for their 400 calorie a day intake while performing the master cleanse and the military diet reboot. If poster were to venture outside of MFP to any other part of the internet, they would probably die from shock.

    "BITE/SUCK/LICK/MARRY/BANG/FRIENDS WITH BENEFITS OR MURDER" -Poster is a complete idiot and should be removed from the gene pool immediately.

    You can also accurately predict details about the poster by the contents of their posts. You can discern gender, age, level of experience, intelligence, everything. Just simply looking at someone's join date, number of posts and avatar you already know 90% of what you need to know about them. Hell, you can smell a beachbody "coach" or a Visalus or Herbalife or whatever salesperson, from a mile away.

    When you get SO MAD that your significant other took a bite of your pre-measured and weighed food!

    Yes! And when the above is grounds for divorce for cruel and unusual punishment!
