How would you react if someone told you masturbating could help you reach your fitness goals? Well, one woman is saying it worked for her—and she actually has the academic chops to back it up.
Meet Ramani Durvasula, PhD, a psychologist and author of the brand new book, You Are WHY You Eat. After getting out of a loveless and sexless marriage, Dr. Durvasula saw an opportunity to re-focus on herself and her health, so she developed a diet and fitness plan that used very specific non-food rewards (including masturbation and orgasm) to keep her on track. The result: An 80-lb. weight loss.
We sat down with her to learn more about her somewhat unorthodox diet and the psychology behind it.
