Fast Diet

Dating and The Fast Diet (versus the Slow Diet)

Let’s face it. One of the biggest reasons people go on a fast diet (or a slow diet or any other kind of diet) is to attract a potential partner. Our society has become so obsessed with this notion that one must achieve a perfect body in order to find happiness (or a mate, or personal fulfillment, or any other goal) that we make ourselves crazy in our attempts to achieve these goals. Is it a good idea to get into good shape and eat well? Of course! Is it a good idea to get too obsessed and crazed over these dieting and fitness (perhaps in the pursuit of love or happiness)? No! To be honest, it’s never a good idea to get too obsessed over anything, as obsession often leads to neurosis, which typically leads to miser (the polar opposite of happiness).

Over the centuries, many wise and great thinkers have advised their followers (and anyone else within earshot) to walk the middle path, and this sound advice still holds true today. Generally speaking, it is not a good idea to “go to extremes” whether you are trying to lose weight for yourself or you are entering the dating pool/thinking about ways to attract a mate. Taking the extreme path toward any goal might get you there faster, but it may also be problematic, not only for your physical health, but also for your mental, spiritual and emotional health.

In other words, take care!! Why go on an extreme diet of one kind or another when instead you can make a series of gentle lifestyle adjustments that can help you reach your goal (perhaps not as quickly) but in a much healthier manner (and in a way that is likely to last a lot longer). Change is hard. Extreme, abrupt change can be downright destructive. So, whether you are making changes for yourself or for a romantic partner (or a sought after romantic partner), please go about it in a gentle, healthy way that will not jeopardize either your good health or your sanity.
