Sure, you can kick addiction. I'm not going by the AA definition; "Once an addict, always an addict..." I've quit, cigarettes, alcohol, heroin, (yes heroin) anorexia, bulimia, and sugar addiction. If you think that anorexia and bulimia are just about control, then you're wrong. There is definitely a cycle of food addiction there.

So thank you for your insight and insistance that I'm just "in denial" or afraid of the term addict, but I think I know myself pretty well at this point in my life, and I'm choosing not to use a passive label as a crutch, when I have finally found a way to live WITH food instead of living FOR food.

I didn't "insist" anything about you. I said, it sounds like denial. I don't understand why you feel the need to use that passive aggressive, sarcastic tone in your closing sentence with me either. However, defensiveness is a sign of denial. I was offering my insight and opinion. We can agree to disagree without becoming rude.
Have a nice day!
