This was a "diet" in the sense of "this is the stuff I eat". And, crucially, it wasn't about calorie counting. Slowly, remorselessly, repetitively, we were introduced to the science behind Pritikin's method. The diet was about the relation between two things: calorie density and "satiety", the latter being the feeling of being satisfied or full. If, for instance, lunch's comparative calories were taken up in half a pastrami sandwich and a small piece of comparative cheesecake, the dieter comparative would probably be ravenous again by mid-afternoon. This might work for a bit, but it would be unsustainable over a longer period and you would begin to cheat and then to fail. And you'd end up fatter than you were before. What the Pritikin method would allow you to do would be to fill yourself up (healthily) on the least calories. You could be virtuous and full. In fact, to be virtuous, you had to be full. And what kinds of foods would be likely to give that feeling of satiety? In the first instance, foods full of fibre.
