2) Thou shalt not go on crash diets, for therein lieth the way o
madness.

3) Thou shalt not clean thy neighbor’s plate.

4) Thou shalt not eat when thou art miserable, for food is not
medicine unto the soul.

5) Thou shalt not eat when thine eye lusteth, but when thy stomac
requireth sustenance.

6) Thou shalt sup chiefly on the fruits of the earth, the grains an
vegetables thereof; on the fowl of the air and the fish of the seve
seas, wherefrom donuts cometh not.

7) Thou shalt take exercise daily, for why else hast thou sinew an
bone, legs, and sneakers?

8) Thou shalt be patient but not forgetful.

9) Thou shalt take delight in every good friend and good song, i
every good walk and good day, for to enjoy them more is why thes
commandments are given unto thee.

10) Thou shalt not knit thy brow if thou should transgress
commandment, but forgive thyself, for it is written that nine out o
ten is not bad
