i am not a specialist in addictive behaviors or anything.. but the moment you realized you have trouble saying "no", it seems to me you are saying two things: 1) I realize that there is a problem 2) I realize on some level that problem/behavior is not healthy

what other people do or do not do, has nothing to do with you as an individual and whether or not you have a problem.
Yeah I hear you. Im just worried if this kind of behavior would get worse eventually. For now it doesnt affect me physically but it does worries me since I was never use to do it so often and not for the same reasons either.

but hey, just on the other hand; america is populated with overweight ppl that put their health at serious risk because they cannot decline fattening food on a daily basis... the question wasnt about a piece of cake but about something consumed often enough to bring yourself to a dangerous state. So yeah to me it is something that most ppl can be confronted to everyday.
