You are talking completely past him and ignore his points. At no point he said that "outrun a bad diet". You are arguing against strawman.

Thanks for the downvote, but that's not what a strawman is and not what I'm doing. I largely agree with them, and "outrun a bad diet" is an extremely common expression. You'll even see I said "as they say" - because it's not the person I'm replying to who I'm quoting.

I do understand what "outrun a bad diet" means and that it is common expression. What makes you think I dont?
