From the introduction:
Bad Business has been constrained to give you advice. You won't find it spontaneous nor from the heart, but if you follow my directions I will guarantee that you will gain; providing, of course, you have no organic trouble; and the chances are that- by giving proper attention to your diet you will gain anyway, and maybe in passing lose your trouble.
Who knows? In war, hoarding food is a crime, and fines and imprisonment have followed the ex~ pos6 of such practices.
Yet there are hundreds of thousands of individuals all over America who are hoarding food, and that is one of the most precious of all foods! They have vast amounts of this valuable commodity stored in their own anatomy. Now fat individuals have always been considered a joke, but you are a- joke no longer. Instead of being looked upon with friendly tolerance and amusement, you are now viewed with distrust, suspicion, and even aversion!
How dare you hoard fat when our nation needs it? You don't dare to any long- er. You never wanted to be fat anyway, but you did not know how to reduce it, and it is pro-verbal how little you eat. Why, there is Mrs Natty B. Slynun, who is beautifully thin, and she eats twice as much as you do, and does not gain an ounce. You know positively that eat- ing has nothing to do with it, for one time you dieted, didn't eat a thing but what the doctor ordered, besides your regular meals, and you actually gained. You are in despair about beit^ anything but fat, and —!
how you hate it. But cheer up. I will save you; yea, even as I have saved my- self and many, many others, so will I save you. It is not in vain that all my life I have had to fight the too,
Why I can remember when I was a child I was always being consoled by being told that I would outgrow it and that when I matured I would have some shape. Never can I tell pathetically "when I was married I weighed only one hundred eighteen, and look at me now.
