Food Quotes: People on a diet always find that the temptation to bail seems to be everywhere. After all, friends may not actually be acting like friends when they try to convince you that just one bite of the chocolate cake at a birthday party “won’t hurt,” or that you can get back to your diet after the Christmas holidays.
In times when it’s becoming a bit hard to stick to your diet, these funny food quotes may come in handy to strengthen your resolve and to get control of your life:
Food Quotes to Inspire Your Diet
- “If you can’t control your peanut butter, you can’t expect to control your life.” – Calvin and Hobbes
- “Rich, fatty foods are like destiny: they, too, shape our ends.” – Anonymous
- Meanwhile, these next few quotes are a great way of changing the way you view food. After all, many people struggle with viewing food as a reward, or for viewing overeating as something with insignificant consequences.
- “Do not reward yourself with food. You are not a dog.” – Anonymous
- “Dieting is the penalty for exceeding the feed limit.” – Anonymous
- Of course, just because food should not be used as a reward does not mean that it is your enemy. While you may opt for other tangible rewards, like a shopping trip, or a new bag or a new book, your dependence on food may be eased somewhat, but you do not have to “hate” food. In fact, it is crucial that your perspective of food changes: When you understand that food really is not your enemy and can in fact work for you, you will find yourself set free from much pressure.
- Now you can view food in a more “fun” way, of finding the food that will help you burn fat much faster. See the quote below from the author of the Rosedale Diet.
- “Good fat turns you into a wonderful fat burner. It truly is a miracle food.” – Ron Rosedale, M.D
- Now, there are other people who would push for a vegan or a vegetarian diet, and the following quotes should give you a bit of a look into that kind of diet:
- Vegetarian: a person who eats only side dishes. – Gerald Lieberman
- I’ve found without question that the best way to lead others to a more plant-based diet is by example – to lead with your fork, not your mouth. – Bernie Wilke, quoted in Joanne Stepaniak, The Vegan Sourcebook, 1998
- I’m a vegan, but you can be really unhealthy as a vegan, too. Vegan just means that you don’t use animal products, so you don’t wear leather, you don’t wear wool, and you don’t eat animal products. But you can eat French fries and stuff like that all day long. – Emily Deschanel
- I eat everything that nature voluntarily gives: fruits, vegetables, and the products of plants. But I ask you to spare me what animals are forced to surrender: meat, milk, and cheese. – Anonymous
