the click bait influencers

the happy

gal

eating two pounds of ground

beef

and six eggs

pops onto the screen,

a pound

of a bacon is on her plate.

she's a nutrition influencer

who tells you

how to lose weight, how to get fit,

how to lower

your cholesterol,

regulate

your insulin

and how to deal with your

A1c level.

she tells you

to run more, eat less,

do intermittent fasting,

get more

sleep,

drink more water and 

electrolyte drinks.

go low on carbs, cut out the sugar

and seed oils,

fried foods.

bread is the devil.

do this do that, try this

and if that doesn't work,

here's a book you should read,

a video of me

you should watch.

each week it's a new diet,

a new

method of being healthy.

my mind swirls from the click bait,

so i surrender

and eat a slice

of cake.
