As an Aquaman-kin, I speak whale:

"Special Food" = "I don't read beyond labels, and blindly believe anything it says, because basic awareness requires a level of minimal effort"

"Special programs" = ???

"Apps" = "My phone is my world. I am nothing without social media"

"Coaches" = "I only go to the gym for selfies and to harass guys out of my league. It's easier if they're obligated to interact as part of their job"

"Gym membership" = "Selfies are my life"

"Cleanses" = "I believe in every fad that says its not my fault. I'd rather have an incurable problem outside my control than admit responsibility for my health"

"Pills" = "I want a quick fix, and want it now"

"Some of the the smartest marketers" = "It's a nebulous conspiracy against me, rather than a predictable consequence of my actions, that's making me unhappy."

"Feel insecure" = "If I pretend the little aches and health problems I'm experiencing are in my head, rather than my body screaming a warning, they'll go away, right?"

"Call out diet culture" = "Guilt trip anyone who who doesn't indulge my denial"

Also, what a lazy graphic image, for an unsourced claim. Here's a article on the cost with a source: ~$92,000 over a lifetime.
