Who wants to take advice from a hypocrite?
It would be like a dental hygienist that didn't floss, or a personal trainer that never did squats, or an arms control advocate with armed bodyguards, or an envronmentalist that never separates recyclables from the garbage.
- criddell 10y agoIs a fat dietitian more of a hypocrite than, say, an out of shape football coach?
- logfromblammo 10y agoNeither is necessarily a hypocrite. You can't really tell until they open their mouths and speak. It is likely that the coach was not out of shape at a time when they participated in competitive team sports. But a football coach that had never suffered a severe sports injury commanding players to "hit harder"? That's some hypocrisy right there. The fat dietitian might be self-experimenting to support they hypothesis that their fat-loss diet plan works (at n=1), or becoming familiar with the effects of various unhealthy eating habits. But we weren't talking about a fat dietitian. It was a dietitian that apparently does not eat vegetables.
- cardiffspaceman 10y agoA rotund American football coach, which is my image from your words, could be an ex-football player who once was more muscular. Retired athletes in that and similar sports do not end up thin like David Beckham. So in that case, after I learned the coach's resume, I would probably not call him a hypocrite.
