Below are the most popular and impactful highlights and quotes from The Chic Diet: The Dietary and Psychological Tactics of the Urban Elite:
“Intermittent fasting is like a godsend for the chic. Apparently, it's actually really healthy and has a bunch of scientific studies published to back it up. Not that the chic girl will ever read them, of course. But if positive results actually exist, then there's actually something to validate her cray!”
“Isn't the person who endlessly shoves Five Guys burgers into her mouth, all the while allowing her muffin top to grow exponentially, the one with the mental health issue?”
“Chewing supposedly helps you to eat less too, since satiety signals, or whatever, are normally sent to your brain at a snail's pace. By taking longer to chew, you'll realize when you're actually full before committing the disgusting act of overeating.”
“There's really no better way to tszuj up your life in moments of dire need other than, maybe, Vyvanse. Or cocaine. Or a molly. Or whatever.”
“Pound a few cups of the fizzy stuff [sparkling water] before digging in to your seared Branzino, and you'll realize that you're full after eating only a fraction of what you would normally ingurgitate. It's like an ephemeral version of fiber that won't sit around and threaten you with the risk of imminent flatulence.”
“The chic girl is something of an enigma. Girls either hate every last ounce of her soul or want to be her best friend. Boys are either enthralled or repulsed by her.”
