[QUOTE="tantalus, post: 1680830, member: 324475"] Because I want one. Because, once in a while, I like to enjoy a biscuit, or similar, with a cup of tea. And, as noted above, I can indulge in this happily, without it being any problem at all, because of my kitchen safe. Note that "want" is different from "crave". My first biscuit is because I want it, and at that time, all I want is one biscuit, which my diet allows for. The crave is what can happen after I have eaten it. The bit I find curious is:- After I have eaten one biscuit, if I know more are available (i.e. unlocked) then I crave for another, and I would often give in to that crave. However, if the biscuits are in the safe, and out of reach, then (a) the craving seems much less, and (b) it disappears within an hour. My managing of what I eat works just fine. My only reason for posting was curiousity about what mechanisms might be involved. [/QUOTE]
