I see many similarities ... as someone who struggles with eating too much. Reading Atkins, Sugar Blues, and other resources, the chemical reaction that food creates can be, I think, classified as addictive. It feels that way, anyway. I would not say in the same way as drugs / alcohol. Thanks for the link.
By the way ... new look for the blog ... new owner? "Jason Schwartz" is not a familiar name to me ... and I've been reading this blog a while. Help me out ... maybe I just missed it!
Same old, same old. I've always been the sole blogger here.
so sorry... I had a brain confusion with http://alcoholselfhelpnews.wordpress.com/
forgive me. But ... if you don't know about that site you'll enjoy it I think.
Not trying to spam here...just genuine mixup!
You're in my reader...keep on writing!
