Haha, you would hate to watch me diet. I have two gears in life - on and off. At any moment I am one spoonful of peanut butter, 1 french fry, 1 anything away from gluttony. I've had to accept that and have the self control to just not allow myself to indulge in things that trigger bad habits. Habits that were built over decades of life. Are there times where I allow myself a spoonful of peanut butter? Yes. But there are times when a spoonful becomes 2, or 3, or 1/4 of the jar.
Have you ever been REALLY obese? I have. And I got that way by developing some REALLY bad, unhealthy habits that were pretty out of control. And I reinforced those habits over many, many years. And many of those habits were learned from my parents when I was a young child (not blaming them, I have been old enough to make my own choices and know better for a LONG time). The point is, my default is to over eat. As a matter of fact, I have NO off switch. If I start eating and don't have a plan, I can eat so much that people's jaws literally drop and I don't even feel full. I'm not hungry, but I never have any pain or full feeling from over eating. On the rare, random occasion I do overeat and feel full and can't eat anymore, I am almost happy because it's like - "An off switch! Why can't that happen all the time!?"
Some things, however, have a disproportionate trigger in the rewards system in my brain - it's like giving an alcoholic alcohol, I just lose control. I am better off just avoiding them as much as possible than to try to fit them in and risk a binge.
You must not know me well
I use to play offensive line and weighed 200+ Pounds back in the highschool days in a 5'7 frame.
I have tons of loose skin because of this.
Everyone can cure "bad habits"
Everyone can cure "Bad relationships with food"
Weather you want to or not is your personal choice. That is not prohibiting you from taking the proper steps in doing so. The only reason why you do not is because you are afraid of change. Sometimes change is for the better, while it may be hard. It may be what you need to do to improve your relationship with food and not putting things off limits.
GNO may be able to put down a donut or two, but he knows his limits and does not have to eat a half doze or full dozen to be "Satisfied". Have we all done this before? Sure,
but there is a law of diminishing returns on the after effects of just eating a jar of peanut butter, 2-3 pints of ice cream, or eating a full pizza in order to get the satisfaction.
I have no off switch either, and I can easily eat 13 full plates of food at Golden Corral.
Is it optimal? no.. Do i feel like absolute crap after? Yes Is it worth all the pain and suffering? no..
Take the hard life lessons your learned, take them head on, and learn portion control so this way you can incorporate those things in the future and beat those issues.
Smokers can quit smoking, its all a mental mind game.
Alcoholics and quit drinking.. its all in their personal decisions and habits.
While it may be easier to Avoid them, there is hope that you can overcome the issues. You just have to take the proper steps in order to do so. Weather we choose to do so is up to you. But There is hope.. You just have to put your mind to it, maybe seek professional help, or physically force yourself to defeat your own issues.
But anyways.. Back to Select.
and back to getting some of dat dere
