Or, when you think about serving size vs. fat grams vs. calories before you take something out of the fridge . . .
Or, when you've bought new (smaller) storage containers to make sure you've got the portion control going on . . . Or (and this just happened tonight), when you say things like, "Yay, BROCCOLI!!" good post, btw . . . :D |

omg i agree with so many of these! it's good to know other people are as crazy as I am! when fruit tastes sweeter than you remember. even the slightly tart out of season fruits! when homemade applesauce with added sugar is so sweet you can't finish it when your friend calls you from the grocery store to ask you which english muffins/bread/cereal etc you said they should be eating my personal favorite...when you go to a friends house for dinner and she asks how much a specific cooked chicken breast weighs and you respond...3 1/2 ounces and she doesnt believe you so you drag out her food scale and it weighs 3.48 ounces! oh the looks i got that day. She had me guess the ounces of 2 other chicken breasts both of which i got pretty darn close. Talk about feeling like a freak lol. THE AMAZING PORTION SIZE GUESSER lol.

I am getting so pwned by this thread, it's awesome. Nothing to add, except that I too have been curious as to how many calories are in my dogs food, and how many calories she burns. She could stand to shed a few pounds too ;) |

When you spend two hours after grocery shopping separating everything that wasn't already in individual serving size containers into ziploc containers. When you not only wonder about the number of calories in cat food, but has a packet from the vet of different foods and their nutritional breakdown. Sassy (my kitty) is on a Catkins! |

When you get soymilk and hazelnut syrup at the coffee shop, and it's so sweet you actualy make this noise -- "eeeyyyyrrrccchhh!!!" and can't drink it all. What happening to me? That used to be my favourite :(
When you get excited about your Boots £2.99 meal deal. I mean REALLY excited. I went "yey". *shakes head*
When you overhear someone getting reprimanded by their friends for eating fruit/not eating cake and you feel an automatic kinship with them, and decide they will now be your friend. Obviously not really, that would just be weird. It has to remain a secret bond only you know about. |

I had a pecan weight watchers 1 point chocolate thing last night ... I think I was about to make like 8 small bites of it, and it just melts, and I play around with the caramal for as long as I can because it doesn't lose flavour but I can't taste it in my stomach!! It may have lasted a few minutes and I was exhausted after.
TURNS OUT a small garden pita from pita pit costs $3.12 ... it was the best thing I have ever had ~.~ delicious ... and also enough to fill me up. |

Thank you for this post. I so needed it. I just asked my dietician this week if i was developing an eating disorder, or an unatural relationship with food. I do everything you guys do... and that makes me feel better than i am not alone in my insanity. The "20 minute rule". Okay... so you eat, and afterward you are still feeling hungry. But, rather than eat more of whatever you sit for 20 minutes, and drink water... if the hungry feeling passes you stop eating. If it does not... you can eat more, but only if you quickly recalculate your totals to make sure you do not go over. The "blue bag rule". I can only eat what is in my "blue bag" ... as I pack my lunch, dinner and snacks for the whole day. I actually get excited when i see the blue bag... I guess it is like dogs... when you open the dog food bag. You will actually not eat anything you do not know the caloric value of. You check the website of every restaurant for the nutritional and caloric values of their menu. You will not eat there if they do not have one. Or, you make the manager take the nutritional information plaque off the wall, so you can see it before you order, and then chastise him for not having it in a hand out form. [ i actually did this.] You take a 1/2 and 1/4 measuring cups to family functions... so you can be sure to control your portions. You freak if you do not exercise more than 5 days a week. The insanity goes on... |

You know you've been on a diet too long when you buy a copy of Hustler to hide your Chocolate Fancier magazine in on the way home... |

You know you've been on a diet too long when - - You no longer need to keep imputting nutrition information off food packaging because everything you regularly eat has been put in & tagged. - When your boyfriend politely asks you why when you have sex you check your watch before & after then go sit at the computer. |

when you start giving your trainer nutrition tips. when you find yourself glaring at people who go into 'the middle' of the grocery store. |

When you hate math with a fiery passion, but you will calculate your total calories consumed for the day, how many you have left in your allowance, the weight/calorie content of your meal...several times.... in a row. These numbers are the only ones you bother thinking about now. AND Even if you used to be the one to eat the WHOLE thing/ the last one, or you finished it off.... You now swear by the sacred rule of making everyone at your table have some. xD Sharing is KEY. AND The words "All You Can Eat" set off the movie themes from Jaws or Psycho in your head. AND You keep coming back into this thread to add more as they come to you.xD |

...when sugar is THE BIGGEST binge you've ever made ...when you come to to this thread to see whether other people on CC feel the same and are as CRAZY like you and also comfort you with their posts (!!) ..when go to shop in a multistore and NOT go to the DVD's rack for "movie and popcorn and beer" tonight, but go to the equipment out and check if there are any new fitness equipments you HAVE to have ...when you just KNOW what your calorie deficit, total calories AND calories burn from the beginning of the day ...when you say to yourself "if I walk more today around the school, not sit down at the canteen and fool around, I will burn 100 extra cals!!!!!" *shake head happily and go WOOO!!!!*
