Since I discovered bitcoin three weeks ago and became obsessed with it, I have been skipping lots of meals by forgetting to eat, and have lost 5lbs. I propose we call this the "bitcoin diet."

This makes me laugh, but the same thing has happened to me too, not only with eating but in regards to sleep as well.  Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night to check http://bitcoincharts.com  Roll Eyes

Yeah same here. I went from getting a solid 8 hours of sleep per night down to 6. Even though I want to sleep 8, I wake up after six, and can't stop thinking about bitcoin, so I just have to get out of bed and go do some more bitcoin work.

You just wait until you get into mining. I wake up every couple of hours to check if everything's ok  Grin
My diet recently is made only of chocolates and biscuits  Smiley

Reminds me of ads on AM radio here

Since I discovered Bitcoin, I've lost 25 lbs, become more attractive to the opposite sex, and (as a side effect) became more effective financially!

Try today for the low price of $29.99. Act now, and get two Bitcoins for this low, low price!

I know exactly how you feel, I was first introduced to bitcoin today, and i've spent the whole day at work reading about them. About an hour in I decided to vnc into my home machine with a gts450 and start doing some mining. I'm very excited to be active in the bitcoin community.

I'm glad someone else noticed this.  I was beginning to think it was the heat from my miners.

I've lost 6 pounds and all my friends.

Every single person I know is waiting for bitcoin to dip so they can say "I told you so." i was literally begging them to get in at 7$/BTC.  They all hate me now.  WTF?? I am going to buy new friends when BTC=$1,535.00  (parity with gold)

It will. here's why: if just 10% of all Americans bought one bitcoin each.... can't possibly happen.
if just 1% of people in the world bought 1 bitcoin...can't possibly happen.  supply and demand, Baby.
