Does skinny really feel better than avocado tastes? Not to me.

My brother sent me an interview with Kate Mosse where she quotes the famous Motto of Anorexics...

WWD: Do you have a motto?
KM: There are loads. There’s “Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels.” That’s one of them. You try and remember, but it never works.

I at least appreciate the fact that she added "it never works." But as a successful business woman you'd think she could come up with a better motto to share with her fans. Ease.

I think the problem with this line is the way it devalues what a beautiful thing food is, how incredibly wonderful it can taste. It's not just fuel, it's an aesthetic pleasure. And there are plenty of people able to maintain a healthy weight and simultaneously treat food as something great. (Europeans, for example.)
