I USED to be, when I started - and any time I shake things up a little I go back to being obsessed, but I'd say now that I'm no more obsessed than I was before I started on SW (which was probably more than some, I'm a bit of a foodie and I love to cook), it's not anything new to me any more, it's just how I eat.
I suspect it's all to do with the newness? Certainly that's how it was for me, and really it's not like it's a bad thing to be obsessed with vegetables
My BF quite often says to me 'do you EVER think about anything other than food?!'
Ummmm no. At dinner I'm planning breakfast, at breakfast planning lunch and lunch planning dinner. I think, talk, read, shop and watch food permanently! Doesn't help all that's on the telly seems to be cooking programmes.
When I met my bf he used to have no interest in food, didn't bother him if he skipped dinner or whatever but now he's a munch-a-holic too :-) (however he's a slim Jim. I'm sure it must be genes related coz you should see what he eats!)

Foods always been an obsession with me. I love reading about it, watching cookery programmes on TV, cooking, thinking about food, talking about it and not least, eating it! Honestly, I never stop - and it's got worse since I started SW. I'm a lost cause!

Well for me its not lessened at all, my food and S W obsession. Been on plan for over 12 months now, target for 7 of them. Still 100% commited to S W and am constantly thinking about it.
Definitely!
I've always been a bit food obsessive, like wenchie I am a bit of a foodie, love cooking, eating, shopping for it, watching TV programmes etc...
I'm also quite an energetic person so at the minute I find it a positive way of harnessing my energy!
The only problem is, I could quite easily go to the supermarket every day and spend an absolute FORTUNE! I try to control myself!
Me, me, me!
As soon as I get out of bed on a morning it's the first thing I think about! I love food!!
I really need I plan meals to help me stay on track, I don't like not knowing
I often pick up tips from this site and right them on my shopping list and some of them are still the cupboard but I like the tight of having something new in the cupboard!

My food diary: http://www.minimins.com/slimming-wor...ood-diary.html
I'm just the same and I think that's why SW suits me so well as I'm not having to curtail my love of cooking or new ingredients...and every recipe i see cooked or read I can work out if I can try to make a syn-free or low-syn version.
it also means i dont have to have bland food either as I can use my syns for that tablespoon of curry paste, or splash of ketchup in a sauce if needed
i love it..it's so not a diet in any context I've used before

I've also become obsessed with minimins! Always popping on to check it. Think I'm scared I miss some exciting new recipe or idea lol.
Not really, i eat until i'm full and that's me done. The only thing i'm obsessed with is being healthy.
Yes I am def obsessed, between here and the group my consultant added me to, i use lots of my time planning and thinking about food lol
