So, what’s my point in examining this aspect of my thinking? Because, when I am doing something that I really regret (in hindsight of course), I have always justified it somehow. When I take the time to examine just how I have, as an otherwise intelligent person, managed to bull**** myself into eating behaviors that I could just tear my hair out over (in hindsight of course), it allows me the opportunity to learn to fight back while there is still till to save myself. Since every action starts with a thought, I can learn to be the one in charge of those thoughts. In short, I can learn to call my own bluff, to tell on myself to myself.
