2315: From Foodie to Monarch

It is true that for many, following a strict diet appears to be a global fad, often inspired by celebrities and public figures. For these renowned personalities, maintaining a disciplined regimen, with restricted food and consistent physical training, isn't a choice; it is a mandatory requirement of their royal status and visibility. Their figure is part of their professional identity.

As someone who truly lives to eat, I initially found the necessary food restrictions, like the "no sugar, no oil/ghee" mandate lovingly insisted upon by my healthcare professional son and of course my dietician and team of doctors to be a form of punishment.

But now, I've realized the third, crucial side of this coin.

Accepting these dietary boundaries is a voluntary act of self-governance. It mirrors the demanding discipline required of any monarch or celebrity. I am no longer merely restricting myself; I am performing a mandatory duty to my own well-being.

This shift in perspective is the highest source of live learning: learning to distill the positive and necessary points from every constraint around you.

I now welcome all food restrictions, as they deliver the deep satisfaction of being in complete command of one's own vessel. To all those navigating diet recommendations: You ate well, you loved food, and now you have embraced a higher self-discipline. Enjoy the restricted course; you have achieved a celebrity status of the self.
