Think about it this way: replace the word “Food” with the word “Alcohol” in some of your posts.You can enjoy alcohol once in a while and in moderation, but when you base your social life around alcohol and drink alcohol every day, you become an alcoholic. It is the same thing with food. There’s always going to be a holiday, a celebration, or an event to use as an excuse to eat food. There’s nothing wrong with occasionally enjoying a little bit of food, but when you enjoy food every day, you let it run your life.For me, it's about controlling how I eat food. I have to remind myself that when I go to a restaurant, I don't have to get the tastiest thing on the menu. 9 times out of 10 I can find something that will allow me to stick to my dietary approach. Occasionally, I will indulge (like last Saturday), but they're very rare occurrences so I don't feel bad when I do.</blockquote>
