Avoiding junk food outside the house

It's tricky business.

I can avoid junk food when I'm in control of my environment. No crap food at home means zero ability to snack on bad crap. Going out to nicer restaurants and avoiding desserts means no risk of eating something that wouldn't be good for me.

But it's harder when you're in somebody else's house, or at a work party, and all they have is candies and chips and few bits of crackers and cheese and really bland fruits. Specially when you're at a houseparty, it's impolite to reject their dessert offering, but your brain won't be able to anyway. Since you've controlled its desires so much, it wants to take any opportunity to jump at the opportunity, and finish an entire cupcake in one bite. And then eat a few brookies after that. It knows all that sugary crap will make you feel tired and awful later at night and then the following day, but it don't care for 'nuthin man, it wants what it wants.

Which is still not as bad as your work party, which is confusingly underfunded seeing as they want everybody to be back in the office. No matter, you start with cheeses and fruits. The fruits appear to be acquired at the cheapest medium-end grocery store and are like eating big balls of watery, vaguely-juice-oriented balls. The cheeses are alright. Only thing that's got any flavor there is the bag of doritos, the ginger ale, and the bar of candy. You don't want to. You know you shouldn't. It's a bad idea, no good is going to come off of this.

But. It's just once. Every so often. You're a good buy, you've followed the rules. This one time won't mess you up, won't crap with your health numbers. Yeah all that sugar is going to fuck with your diabetes, and might end up having long-term consequences, but live a little, man! It's not a big deal, okay, go for it. You know you wanna. Just. do it, ya pussy.

here we go.
