    You know how many calories most of your favorite places and can make split decisions of what to get if going out to lunch or dinner is sprung on you. You already know how many calories you had set for that meal and what you could get to be close to that.

    You walk past a sign advertising coffee/breakfast/cake/starter & main course combo and automatically count up the calories involved and know how much working out you need to do to burn it off!

    When your friend, who is also a MFPer, asks you "How much is that?" and you know she's talking about calories not dollars....

    When you can walk into a restaurant or even a friends house for dinner and instantly know what you will NOT eat because you know it's going to put you in the red for your sodium.


    Oh another one is when you won't eat something even if you have the calories because it will put you into the red in your other important categories!

    I love making posts, so I can see how far along my froggy is on the weight loss ticker. Otherwise, I do ALL the things mentioned earlier. Make hubby wait to order and/or eat so that I can log my food. Wrappers in my purse so I can log correctly. Going neurotic about food at friends and family members houses. I do it all... and I'm not alone! YAY!!!
  • You dig through the garbage to find the exact name of the food you just ate.

    When you read food labels and actually understand what they mean.... I was always looking at labels but really had no idea how good or bad the food actually was.
