The reason I shout over the roof tops about my diet is - it is easier to cheat oneself than go back on your word in public.
So when I say I have quit sugar in public, not only do I have a valid reason of refusing tea/soft drinks/juice/sweetlime in public but over a period of time all but the daftest will stop offering it.
It helps a lot when your friends check you when you are about the slip or your acquaintances give amused/disapproving looks when you falter.
And anyway your conscious tells you that you will open yourself to ridicule then the brain listens better and obeys far better than when your conscious tells you that you are doing a wrong with no witnesses.
Call me a sceptic but we are far more moral and up upright in public than when we are alone.
