After a pudgy childhood, I started a lifetime cycle of being on-and-off diets during my senior year in high school (the tuna and liver era of WW, if you can remember that). I have been successful, for a time, on nearly every commercial diet program in existence, always regaining any weight lost. My "ah ha" moment came when watching a Disney WWII "propoganda" cartoon that included a segment on what happens when we let emotions overrule reason. The hapless female cartoon fell victim to her emotional cravings for all sorts of goodies and exploded to obesity. Suddenly I realized I really CAN'T have everything I want, no matter how much I deserve it, how unfair it seems that others can have it, how often it appears in the office or my family sneaks it into our house. It's time to just say no and move on.
