John,
Wow, your last post read like it came out of my own head. I too silently think of when I can eat that non-McDougall food and do the old, "eat clean one week so I can eat bad one snack, one meal or one day". My problem is that "one" becomes the tip of the wedge and I fall off the wagon and go on a huge bender that when I finally have had enough and am able to look back, I see that there is
so much more work I have to do to get back to where I was the moment before I ate the "one" ... (not worth it).
I use to think I was weak because I couldn't eat small amounts of junk, weak because I couldn't control it. Now, I just realize it's not meant to be and how illogical of me to pine after things that make me feel bad literally minutes after eating them. Yep, I've been illogical for a long time.
John ... thank you for being part of my first year here on the McDougall site ... I appreciate your input and more than once your words in your journal really, REALLY helped me.
All the best,
John
