Thanks, Healthyfit; I agree, Athena.

The thing that gets me about Orthorexia Nervosists ( food cultists ) is that they speak so authoritatively and even go out of their way to be food mavens without even being aware that they really do not know what they think they know.

Yes, and I've fallen for it more times than I care to recall...and foreswore my lastest guru more times than I care to recall. I love this quote from the article:
Quote:
Yet, it was more than a month later that I finally decided to make a decisive break. I was filled with feverish anticipation. Hordes of long suppressed gluttonous desires, their legitimacy restored, clamored to receive their due.
On the twenty minute drive into town, I planned and re-planned my junk food menu. Within ten minutes of arriving, I had eaten three tacos, a medium pizza, and a large milkshake. I brought the ice cream sandwich and banana split home, for I was too stuffed to violate my former vows further. My stomach was stretched to my knees.

Been there, done that.
