Ok I tried to read the first one but had to back out when I saw the add "never eat these 5 foods and lose a bit of belly fat every day" and a giant banana. The arrow to find out more simply said "never eat".

I think that's probably the gist of most dieting advice for women.

I'd be more like "love yourself and breathe deeply to reduce overall cortisol, eat moderately of fresh, unprocessed foods and much water, and work up a serious sweat at least 2-3 times a day.. by whatever means most pleases you."
If that doesn't help then put down the magazine and see a dietician.

Life can be seen as a game with no reset button, no extra lives, and if the power goes out there is no restarting.  If that's all you see life as you are not long for this world, and never will get it.

2-3 times a day seems like a bit much, honestly. But otherwise, yeah.

The thing is, doing things the hard way is hard. So people are always looking for shortcuts and, essentially, for magic. Something they can do superstitiously that will somehow give them the results they desire without actually doing the work that would get them there.

Yeah. It's human nature to favor the easy road. Problem is that the easy road is often mislabeled by opportunists counting on that. I've found that the "hard" way is often easier in the end. Less folk on it to distract you and the ability to take it eventually does come easily.

Yep. Plus if you just start doing it, it becomes part of your routine, and soon it's second nature- something you just do as naturally as brushing your teeth before bed.

It's Cosmo Logic, in which taking the single most destructive possible course of action in your relationship will keep you one step ahead of the enemy, who in  this case is your boyfriend.

I kinda feel like Cosmo Logic needs to be enshrined as a logical fallacy.
