      It has taken over my life, a bit like Facebook did when i first started using that!

      I now log on here before anything else, because I am more interested to know what's been going on here rather than Facebook etc...

      Much more interesting and much better for you! :happy:

      Im exactly the same.... :)

      When your out to a nice dinner with your hubby and you pull out your phone and MFP app to figure out what to order off the menu

      or

      when you double check about 3 times before going to bed that you hit Complete this Entry so you don't miss your logging on for so many days in a row :)

      When you plan the items in your lunch wrap so that it contains no more calories than you can burn in a 30 minute lunch workout. Then at lunch since you don't have time for lunch and workout separately you eat while you workout.

      Yeah I'm finding myself measuring EVERYTHING lately : ) Oh well. If it keeps the weight off, I'm perfectly content with that.

      Also, when I'm at a restaurant, wondering how many calories this will show on my food for the day. Eeek.

      Love this.. and I've done so many of these things!

      How about when mfp becomes the topic of a party/gathering because you're playing with your phone app, saying: how am I going to log all these little appetizers?? LOL

      Then.... you find out: hey, I can have another glass of wine... bonus!! hehe :drinker:

      My wife and I have an arsenal of tablespoons for dinner so that we always have at least 1-2 clean ones ready =)

      LMAO I thought this was just me! We're all addicts..... we just replace our food addiction with MFP!

      you spend 45 minutes figuring out how many calories the leftovers you ate for lunch contained. (seriously)



      OMG - I have spent some crazy amount of time trying to log something before - My husband thinks I am crazy

      You have to check MFP to see what you're eating for dinner because you don't remember what you prelogged the day before

      when you tear open a granola bar then forget that you didn't log it so you piece the barcode together so you can scan it.

      Or when you have that debate with yourself when the wrapper goes in the trash. Do I fish it off the top or do I try and search it in the database? lol

      You check the database before eating to see how many calories you are about to consume and then adjust your portion size so you don't go over your calories for the day! :embarassed:

      I literally can relate to ALL of these and I've only had MFP for 3 months... ^^ This is my worst offense every day almost lol :noway:

      you check mfp before facebook!

      This!! MFP is now officially my most visited web page...OVER Facebook, and I spend A LOT of time on Facebook lol. :P

      Also, I'm planning out my meals in my head before I go to bed at night now, thinking about how to enter them into the diary and how many calories it's going to be, etc. :)

      if you get annoyed when someone at work talks to you or if you have to take a phone call, because that means you have to stop chatting with fellow MFPers!
