Extreme diets are failing gay men. Learn how to stop restricting, enjoy your life, and finally get fitness results without fearing food.
In this episode of The Outlifting Lounge, Alan and Derec break down the toxic culture of “eating clean” and 1200-calorie starvation plans that ruin your metabolism and mental health. We discuss why restricting carbs is a mistake and how adopting one simple rule allows you to reach your goals without giving up the foods you love.
Before diving into fitness though, we spill the tea on the latest RuPaul’s Drag Race announcements and we also cover some promising medical news.
Whether you are looking for workout consistency or sustainable weight loss, this episode provides the online coaching advice you need to stop yo-yo dieting forever.
