We're All Addicts.

Why are we all compelled to be stickly thin?
I'm no twig, and I'm also aware that I'm not morbidly obese.
Yet I still find myself trying to limit my caloric intake for my trip to Florida that is so quickly approaching. But if chocolate is in my line of vision (and, it has made an appearance quite freqeuntly, thank you Valentine's Day,) there goes my diet. I literally BINGE on chocolate.
John Stossil (sp?) came out with a segment on addiction that I watched today, in which he basically said that you have complete control over your cravings. That there isn't such a thing as addiction, that it's really a bunch of choices you make. James Frey was on it and everything, Frey saying that he gets high and drunk on life now, and that it's up to you to make the choices and quit. *Frey was the dude who wrote "A Million Little Pieces"* However, I had a hard time taking Frey seriously because didn't he b.s. his entire book pretty much??
Even so, I know I'm not ADDICTED to chocolate, and I know I make the choice to eat it, but it's just so hard to resist. I find that it's such a task to even eat healthy. I just can't say no to junk food. So wait.... wouldn't that BE addiction??
I don't know what to think. John Stossil (sp?) gets me all riled up. I think that if you're addicted to something, you don't have a choice, if you're addicted you have to have it. You can't say no.
