Hey, I fib to myself all the time. Otherwise, my favorite blueberry pie, chocolate fudge cake and slurpy, cheesy thin-crusted pizza with assorted tasty meats and mushrooms atop would never cross these lips! Fortunately the “there-are-no-calories-in-this” downright self-delusion will open up that highway to hell!
