Abstract
This chapter begins with a discussion of a major social problem in the United States—obesity. It then offers some statistics about the size of the diet industry—dieting being an attempt made by many obese and overweight people to lose weight. This is followed by a discussion of dieting and some psychological afflictions relating to food, which concludes with a suggestion that Sisyphus is the model for dieters, who are generally condemned to lose weight and then gain it back again over and over again.
