The whole offensive culture of dieting seems invented as yet another way to make women smaller and weaker – to make us become less, quite literally. The starving self symbolizes a diminishing person, and really we ought to strive to be more, to have more strength and muscle and inner resolve – which is what we get from working out or playing a sport, and what we lose when we live in hunger.
