    You know exactly which meals you can have during the day and how much exercise you need to get to have a few drinks or fancy dinner in the evening.

    :drinker:

    You know the caloric differences of the same type of food that comes from a different brand.

    You also have the ability to fairly accurately guess the amount of calories in an item or meal by sight.

    You find that delicate balance between scanning the forums for interesting posts you might respond to and the involuntary eye roll that happens when you see the same question yet again.

    You've gotten very good at basic math from adding up calories in your head.
    Your parents start asking, "We're making dinner tonight- is it your carb or fat day?"

    Crappy foods no longer tempt.
    If I'm going to indulge on calories is going to be homemade/made from scratch with high quality ingredients and love! Damitt! LoL!

    This. 100%

    When whole milk taste thick, creamy and yucky to the palette!

    My son had a stay in the hospital and they brought in your basic carton of whole milk on the breakfast plate.
    He and I took a taste before we put it over the cereal and just couldn't go it, the milk taste aweful to us.
    At that time we had been drinking skim milk for about a year.

    Same when we first started on the skim, to us it tasted watered down, no flavor. The taste buds DO change,
    that is a fact.

    When your coworkers ask you to help them log their food (How many oz of cheese is that? 2.25, log 2.5 to be safe)

    When you get 10 friend requests any time you post in the forums because you don't spout bullshiz.

    When you count calories in your dreams (wish I was kidding)
    When you do a quick add for 2200 calories for your Christmas dinner then decide to just enter everything the right way and you were pretty much spot on anyway (and you had 13 different things)
    When every plate you're going to put food on ends up on the scale... even when it's for the kids (habit)
    When there are foods you have pretty much given up on because you've decided that they're just not worth the calories anymore.

    When you look at random strangers and wonder if they're cutting, bulking, or maintaining (as opposed to being simply overweight due to indifference, which I previously assumed).
