Measly Meals

This is my Daily food which you may consider measly

Lunch-food-items
“He who takes medicine and neglects to diet wastes the skill of his doctors ” Chinese Proverb

I am unable to understand the proverb.
Can readers explain to me what is that the Chinese Proverb trying to tell us?

Questions to you

  • Do you monitor how much you eat every time and every day?
  • How much variety of items are included in your food?
  • Do you make it a point to include fruits and salad?
  • How about drinking plenty of water?
  • Do you starve because you hate food?
  • Do you avoid food because of certain depressing things happening in your life?
  • Are you on a crash diet because of your overweight problem?

The probable answers

  • My mom/grandma/wife/GF is the best cook in the world and so don’t ask me to control my food quantity
  • It is difficult to monitor the quality and quantity of food. It’s just impossible
  • Being a food lover-it’s just not possible to control what I eat, how much I eat or how many times I eat
  • Who are you to question my food habits?
  • My mindset is not allowing me to control what I eat
  • I consume wine/beer instead of water, not that drinking water is unavailable, and I love more of Pepsi or Coca-Cola instead of water
  • Adding a salad to my food is not my type and I hated greens right from my childhood
  • I am depressed due to failures in my life (that includes my love affair/cheating) and I love starving and dying
  • I breathe junk food, I love junk food, I prey junk food, I eat junk food, just leave me alone, please! [Lesson to remember-“Forget about nuclear war; the real weapons of mass destruction are fast food, highly processed carbs, and high-fructose corn syrup!” Brian Quebbemann]
  • I don’t know
  • I can’t answer your stupid question

What can happen if you don’t listen to saner advice?

  • You die fast without enjoying/experiencing the beautiful things that are there in this world
  • You may not die early but may lead a long crippled life
  • You are a burden to everybody and people may wish you to die soon such that you & others are free from the burden
  • And I am sure you hate to die so early in your life and you don’t want to be a burden to the society

Then, why don’t you develop good food habits?

“When diet is wrong, medicine is of no use.

When diet is correct, medicine is of no need”
