I call it food addiction, but never would I ever compare the complications of habitual over consumption to the problems of a genuine addict. Sure, when I first started cutting calories and working out I was constantly miserable, pissed off, sore and headachy. But that's what happens when you suddenly reduce your blood sugar to normal levels and make your weak, flabby body move more often than a little. It's comparable like grapes and pineapples. Both are fruit but otherwise totally different.
