I have my moments... About a year ago I flirted with a strict "modified Paleo diet" a la Gordo, and achieved excellent results. Then I got really busy, and everything went to hell. Currently I try to make intelligent choices about what types of fuel to use, but I don't beat myself up over anything either. I will eat potato chips, mars bars, cookies, ice cream, chocolate, and the occasional saussage. But I try to limit both the frequency and quantity of that type of thing, knowing that my body runs better on fresh fruit and vegetables, lean meats, and whole, unprocessed grains. I drink tonnes of water, and have significantly cut back on soft drinks. Coffee is life. I feel the same way about coffee that Charlton Heston feels about guns. Perhaps more so.
I find it helps if I view my body as a high performance vehicle. If I gave you a Ferrari, would you try to run it on corn oil? The same (basic) principle applies. If I don't want to perform like crap, I can't live on crap. But hey - I'm human...
