Moderation is a place I'd like to live in. One where a few drinks here and there are nothing, and they don't drive one to buy liquor to fill in the next day (or two, or three).
Moderation doesn't seem to be in my body in any way, shape, or form. The only thing that keeps me from putting something I like (like red wine) into my body is an actual physical consequence. And, like most people, it needs to be a fairly immediate consequence. Like most humans, it's very hard for me to internalize the long term and make it real.
Goddamn evolution. Providing all the incentive to eat the "tastiest" stuff and none of the will power to say, "there will be more of this tasty stuff tomorrow", so you can shut off the "need to eat" for today.
