Didn't that fella off Super-Size Me have withdrawal symptoms?

- I think (having stopped smoking 25+ a day over 2 years ago), the key is to not make a big deal about it.  

If your female friend wasn't aware you're trying to cut bad shit out, she probably wouldn't notice you buying Apple Juice instead of Coke, Avocados instead of Big Macs, Asparagus instead of a large fries, Pumpkin instead of Snickers...

OK, so I digress, but my point is, that wee humans have a tendency to "push" those who are attempting to accomplish things which wee ourselves cannot accomplish - fear of inferiority drives this.

Keep your mission to yourself, and you will have a much easier road ahead of you; although the sense of accomplishment is diminished - almost like running marathon in record time, on some random Tuesday without anyone knowing about it - you're hardly gonna make the front page now, are you?

If you are cutting shit out to prove a point to them, let them know about it; you will have a hard time on your hands.
If you are cutting shit out to prove a point to you, I suggest you keep it to yourself.(And the EPeople)
