It could also be said that when you choose to eat what you know will work against your weight-loss or health goal(s) .. you're not cheating on the diet, you're cheating on yourself.
I think this also applies to the notion of "falling off the wagon". Falling off a moving wagon implies something accidental, something beyond our control that happens TO us The truth is, we choose to stop the wagon, and get off. And so, we have the power to choose to get back on again and carry on ..
And as Nat said, accepting the consequence of our actions .. if we make choices that work against us on a continual basis, who else can take responsibility for that? Even an addict makes the choice to take the FIRST bite, drink, puff, snort, whatever.
