- You check MFP in the morning, before any other website.
- Your friends on facebook are wondering where you've been.
- You suspect that you're burning significant calories just from hitting the reload button.
- You avoid eating something because you think it will be too complicated to log.
- You have an amazing knack for estimating the calories in a plate just by looking at it.
- You work out extra hard just so your "____ burned ____ calories" post will be impressive.
- You do a happy dance when your friends lose weight (or gain, depending on goals).
- Someone asks you how much you weigh in regular conversation and your answer is accurate to the tenth of a lb.
- You've engaged in a passionate discussion exploring alternatives to mayonaisse.
- You've engaged in an online flame-war around the topics of nutrition and exercise.
- You roll your eyes when you see a "should I eat my exercise calories" post appear in recent activity (which is to say, several times a day)
- You weigh yourself before and after daily activities, such as shaving, just to see if there was a difference.
- During sex you find yourself wishing you wore your HRM.

I'm sure ya'll can add to this list :bigsmile:

    HILARIOUS!!!! ..... BUT TRUE!

    I would've never thought in a million years that I'd pass up on a potluck at work SOLELY because I didn't want the hassle of having to log what I ate! HAHAHA. :-)

    I'm an ADDICT!!!!! I'm sure my friends on facebook are wondering where I've gone.... I would much rather read posts from my friends here about their workouts or successes or struggles than see random posts from people I actually know and love! Ha! Love you, MFP!
