[QUOTE="Redshank, post: 2170146, member: 325494"] “I can resist everything except temptation” - Oscar Wilde Our behaviours are as a result of a mixture of genetic, environmental and learned elements. It is too late for me to do anything about the genetic component. I do know it is easier to resist food items if they remain in the supermarket rather than when they are in my fridge. However, some people comment on my self control when I don’t eat cakes or biscuits. But they do not tempt me, I don’t need any self control. People who really like cakes don’t believe me as for them it would take great control. There is no moral virtue involved. I think we are all different in what causes difficulty. If coffee shops had racks full of cheese I suspect I might be tempted! [/QUOTE]
