Addictive behavior aside... I'm all for having a
few vices in life, as long as you choose some healthy ones.
Folks have often wondered how I can be disciplined about my habits and by what I eat. Yes, I used to be on the "seefood" diet (when I see food, I eat it) and used to smoke. I'm now a nonsmoker and eat very healthy. For me, substitution was the key. One shouldn't have a denial attitude about going healthy. If you give up salt and fat, go for hot sauce. Giving up a couch potato lifestyle means substituting a life of fun activities. If you give up smoking, well... I'm sure there are creative alternatives to this oral fixation.
But everyone has their own ways to approach this. Whatever works.
