On a Diet? Watch Your Wallet. |
7 Comments |
Over at Lazy Man and Health, I wrote an article that should be of interest to Lazy Man and Money readers. Science Daily has a report about how being on a diet can affect your money.
This should be of interest to a few of my favorite financial bloggers who occasionally write about health. A short list of these would be:
- Tricia from Blogging Away Fat and Blogging Away Debt.
- NCN from No. Calories Needed and No Credit Needed.
- Golbguru from The Tao of Good Health and The Tao of Making Money.
- Kevin from Weight Ladder and Rate Ladder.
- Trent from The Simple Dollar who is on the Volumetrics diet.
- J.D. from Get Rich Slowly who occasionally writes about Health and Fitness as well.

Thanks for the post! I had no idea. I guess when you try to improve your life in one area, it spills over to another area.
The “diet” craze of organic foods can raise the food bill by 30%. In 30 years, I wonder if we will see any statistically significant evidence to prove that this food is really better for one’s health.
I will contribute to the non-organic foods category in the study … and save my 30%!
I was actually writing a post about diet and frugality when I jumped over here and read this post. Thanks for stealing my thunder. Well, not thunder exactly, my dull rumbling…
I’m not sure I agree that applying discipline to a diet decreases your discipline with money. I think that the overall concept of discipline in your life would apply the same to money, to diet, to personal relationships, to work and on and on. There’s definitely a correlation. The interesting question is whether discipline in one area does truly affect discipline in the other. I suspect a disciplined type person is usually – not always – just disciplined in general. The ‘bucket’ as the study put it can, and does, get bigger due to willpower, practice, etc.
It seems to me another one of those hard-to-really-support-but-plausible theories. I just hope it’s not true.
Thanks for the mention!
