pet peeve...

you know what my biggest pet peeve is???? Its when people say food is my drug of choice!!!! drug of choice... really? well if i was gonna CHOOSE i think id be an alocholic... i would choose a drug that i could quit cold turkey. Food is the worst thing to be addicted to! its not like i just get to QUIT eating i have to eat in moderation.... That would be like giving an alocoholic a keg of beer and telling them to drink in moderation?! i have to control my urges and have a full fridge at the same time... thats like giving a cocaine addict a cupboard full of cocaine and telling them they can only have one sniff a day.... i have to count my calories and CHOOSE to stop eating at 1600..... thats like giving a gambling addict 10000 dollars but telling them they have to choose to stop spending at 100 dollars...... Not to mention i have to share my addiction everyday with EVERYONE who sees me .... i mean geeze they cant miss me, they see im fat and know i eat alot .... sort of like an alcoholic walking around with a wine mustache or a coke head with white stuff leaking out his nose .......
I dunno seems like a really messed up addiction to me!!!! and im pretty sure i didnt choose it!!

LOL.. hahaha, my boyfriend smokes and I don't. So, I always give him crap about it and compare my food addiction with his nicotine addiction. I swear it's the same concept but more difficult with food for the reasons you stated. You can't just stop eating. Anywho, he gets so mad at me when I start the food vs. cigarettes conversation cause he totally disagrees. I'm so glad someone finally sees my side!!!
