“Dieters live life in the fasting lane”

The song “Life in the Fast Lane” was performed by the Eagles on the album Hotel California (1976). “Dieters live life in the fasting lane” is a jocular saying of unknown authorship that has been cited in print since at least 1998. However, a proper diet to maintain a certain weight level and good health involves eating the right foods—not a lack of food or “fasting,” contrary to this saying.
