Death by food or Aola is a big fat wuss.

I wonder what it is about certain people's personality that makes us have that addictive character? I get that way about the silliest things... foods, games, etc. I'm just really glad I never smoked - I would have never been able to quit.

And, what it is about other people, why they are not? My Dad smoked for 40 years and then just one day decided to stop, laid them down and never picked up another. He never gained weight because if he started getting a little belly he would just stop eating??? why didn't I get some of that???

I'm doing good with the whole not eating of the salty snacks, but, the only reason I am is because there are NO pretzels in the house. It sure as hell isn't because I don't want them. We will see if I can resist buying a bag tonight on our weekly shopping trip. Seriously, I was thinking about running into town because I need to go get dog food and the thought crossed my mind to stop and get a bag of pretzels and eat them all before I came home.... WTF??? Like Mark cares if I eat pretzels??? or the salt wouldn't hurt me if no one knew?????? that is some strange thinking.

Like I said... good thing I never took up smoking.

Are we related? I think we are. I wonder the same thing about myself.
I obsess, become addicted, fascinated, 'stuck' on things.

I have never felt like I have an ounce of self control.

When I do my cross country drive from WA to NC, I want to stop in for a couple of days.

:) No idea on earth when that will be.

I'm the same. Really it only happens the week before I start my period. I want to eat everything in sight and I try to hide all that I am eating.
