Maybe you’re ready to make some New Year’s resolutions, but you’re not optimistic that this year is going to be any different. Many people believe that it takes willpower to achieve such goals. "I resolve to eat less food" sounds good in theory, but it’s often hard to sustain. And if you believe that it’s all willpower, then you’re likely to be upset with yourself if you don’t succeed.
Willpower alone is not sustainable. Pleasure is. Deprivation is not sustainable. Abundance is. Pain is not sustainable. Ecstasy is. Fear of dying is not sustainable. Joy of living is. If we view changing our diet and lifestyle as deprivation and sacrifice, well, forget about it. You might be able to force yourself to make some changes for a limited period of time, but long-term success will

you.
The language of behavioral modification often has a moralistic quality to it that turns off a lot of people. It’s a small step from thinking of foods as "good" or "bad" to seeing yourself as a "good person" or a "bad person" if you eat them—gluttony is one of the seven deadly sins. For example, once you feel that you’re a bad person for eating some ice cream, it’s all too easy to say, "Well, I blew it, so I might as well finish the entire pint. " In reality, although we often project moral qualities onto it, food is just food.
Also, the term "compliance" has a creepy, fascist quality to it, one person manipulating or bending another person to his or her will. In the short run I may be able to pressure you into changing your diet, but sooner or later, some part of you will rebel. The same is often true if we try to use willpower to pressure ourselves into changing what we eat and how we live—we may rebel against ourselves.
Instead, if we understand that what we gain is so much more than what we give up, then it doesn’t feel like a sacrifice. We can see lifestyle choices as an opportunity to transform our lives in ways that make us feel more joyful. If it’s fun, then it’s sustainable. What matters most is your overall way of eating and living. Studies have shown that those who eat the healthiest overall are the ones who allow themselves some indulgences.
By saying "food is just food" the author means that
