If you intend to start a diet any time soon, be prepared for a barrage of intelligence insulting guffaws of self-proclaimed diet Messiahs. Everybody else on this Earth is lobotomized, but the selected few; you are blessed, because you have bought their book, and of course the writers are saints, but humbled to be mere messengers of Gods to enlighten the masses devoted to gluttony. Such messengers are not doing this task for money, although the mansions and extravagant cars could mislead you, no, they do this as a service to Gods and the broad public, which is blinded by the worldly sparkles. As such, common sense means nothing, because this is the magical working of heavenly creatures, writing books better than the Bible, leading you with a golden path towards your skinny self.
If this sounds like a sect to you, then you are not mistaken. Ever since the Adventist movement, which propagated abstinence from certain foods together with the religious message, their most prominent contributor – who by the way left disgruntled, because he was not credited properly – Dr. Kellogg of the cereal fame, many people have tried to simply leave the religion out of it, but keep the whole nutrition movement intact, together with the fanatic structure. “We are right, everybody else is wrong” policy does work very well; politics in general are based on that principle for centuries now.
Similar to the religious movements, where most spiritual leaders are in it for the fame and fortune, the whole nutritional craze is filled with partial and wrong information. For instance, how are you supposed to go from wonderfully smelling and tasting food to bland and awfully tasting dishes for the rest of your life and without kicking the diet to smithereens? If you are not a diabetic, there is no reason why you cannot eat every now and then something sweet, as long as you can keep it in good measure. If you are out with friends, why should they all have a beer and you take tonic water or worse, lemonade, although you crave that foamy liquid more than air? Because it is a sin. It goes against the commandments written by Zeus himself, I am guessing now, and you will be condemned to a lifetime of obesity, or so they say. Why don’t you simply put down the book instead and turn on your brain?
