BAD DIET FADS

  • There are lots of diet fads that are just money makers for their proprietors.
  • They don’t work – they’re selling crap.
  • Lots of products are marketed as healthy or ‘keto,’ but they’re filled with crap and sweeteners.
    • This is true of many vitamins and supplement products, too.
      • And those are probably filled with seed oils.
  • Try to avoid anything that seems too good to be true, or is just temporary.
  • There aren’t shortcuts, and real, whole food is always better.
  • You also shouldn’t have to pay extra to adapt to a new lifestyle.

OLD-SCHOOL GYMS

  • Vinnie used to go to some pretty old-school gyms and prefers finding gyms like this if he can.
  • Lots of the guys were body-builder types.
  • They’d try to sell PEDs to one another!
  • Anna sees a super roided-up guy at her gym pretty often.
    • And the other day, we were talking about eating quinoa. Of course!
