You guys said all of the good ones!
You are officially a gymrat when...
You're a nursing mom who forgets to wear a bra to work and is able to go to the trunk of her car and pull out a sports bra!
You're sleep-deprived and go to work in your fuzzy slippers.
you saw me in "normal clothes" when we when out for dinner at dcac (Prana khaki drawstring pants, Hind khaki and lime green patterned tank top, and brown and pink checked slip-on Vans). you might not have noticed the difference - my normal clothes are pretty sporty! i'm one of the few who looks pretty much the same in the gym and out, except for the lack of sweat. either way, i'm not wearing make-up and 90% of the time my hair is in a pony tail or pig tails.
also, when we went to the farmers market! i can't remember what i was wearing, i think it was sweatpants and a tee shirt. again, pretty much the same as what i'd wear to the gym, just not sweaty.

I remembered the farmers market after I thought about it.
Yes, yes, yes, to all of the above! (I can SO relate to the couch workout Paula & Kel.)
How about:
-You teach 15+ classes a week then do yoga/pilates or lift weights to wind down & take a break.
-You book a week off work for holidays, but end up subbing the night before you leave town because you won't be near a gym while you away so you should get one last workout in.
-You have two or more gym bags, each w/ its own towel, shoes, sweat rag and shower kit.
-After you've taught/done 4 classes in a day the girl at the front desk asks you (when you pop in to pick up paperwork) if you're going to come & do the 'Power' class.
-No matter where you go you run into people who after looking at you w/ some confusion blurt out, " Hi! I didn't recognize you w/ your clothes on."
-Your wardrobe consist of seasonal (all seasons) sportswear/workout gear and little else.
-The only shoes you own that fit are sneakers (several pairs, most for a different activities but doubles for what you do most so you'll always a dry pair of shoes) and a pair of flip-flops.
-The only new music you get must be suitable for working out to.
-You never blowdry or style your hair (and seldom cut it) because you're just going to pull it back or put on a sweat rag or cap and get soaked w/ sweat anyway.
And the one the dh will never let me live down...
You know you're a gym rat when you wake up early every morning
You know you are a reformed gym rat when you hubby gets home from work and the first thing out of your mouth is "I did it" and proceed to show him how you finally
