Why do women torture themselves?

Of course its the holidays for most of us!  Its time to splurge in food, drink and whatever pleases us.  I was reading a book by Loretta LaRoche about how food has become a poison.  What you say?  We hardly enjoy our food anymore.  How many times have I tasted something and thought:  I dont know if I should have eaten that? Then we ask 2 or 3 people:  Should I have eaten this?  I bet I am going to get fat from this.  Everything I eat makes me fat.  Oh God, I'm not going to fit in my favorite jeans.

On top of it anytime you eat something, someone reports to you what's in it.  I'm guilty of this.  There's always some fat gram police around, whether its on the box or can label or your girlfriend who's got it all memorized especially if you go to Weight Watchers:  watch out there's 10 points in that bite.  Spit it out now and repent....Then you think, have I reached my quota for the day?  Assisting my dad when he was living in a residence made a big impact on me.  There they were:  all the old healthy people locked away waiting to die.  These were the elderly that played it safe all their lives:  no smoking, no drinking, eating low fat and healthy but now they are all wearing diapers with Alzheimer.  Do I want this?  Hell no! Do I want to eat low fat, so I'l live a long time, as miserably as possible.  What do you think?  I just want to enjoy my food, tabarnak!
