We had a lot of fun last night in the studio! I had a few of my friends hanging out with us like John Turnbull who has a great web site devoted to soccer lovers across the globe called www.theglobalgame.com and my other pals Audrae and Cher from www.GeorgiaSpinal.com. We had two very special guests last evening Dr. Barbara Rolls, Director of the Eating Lab at Penn State, and the author of “The Volumetrics Eating Plan”, the “Number #1 diet of 2007″ according to Consumer Reports. It just nudged out our book, “You Can’t Lose Weight Alone-The Partner Power Weight Loss Program on Amazon at #4. We came in at #1,500,786 but don’t count us out yet!! Dr. Rolls shared ways that you can fill up by eating more fiber and adding more water based vegetables to your meals to create a more filling dining experience. She even gave a great tip on how to get your child to eat more veggies. She said you can blend up the vegetables and add them to tomato sauce and your kid will not even taste them. Dr Rolls is a world renowned nutrition researcher who runs her own obesity research lab at Penn State University. For more information please check her website www.thevolumetricseatingplan.com I can’t wait when The Fat Guy and I go to the Eating Lab and share a meal with Dr. Rolls.

We also got to spend time with Michael Feigin, better know to listeners of Sirius Satellite’s Lime station as “The Fitness Guru.” Michael and his wife Lawson Harris host “The Fitness Guru” show each afternoon on Sirius channel 114 at 5pm est. Their show educates listeners in the benefits of all the possibilities in the health and fitness world. And if that isn’t enough Michael and Lawson own several pilates and fitness centers in New York. For more information please check out their website www.fitnessgurunyc.com and be on the lookout for their upcoming exercise dvds. Michael has been a leader in the Health and Fitness industry for many years and if you don’t listen to Howard Stern on Sirius, I would spend the $12.95/month just to get Michael’s show!!!!

Remember, Dr. Fitness and The Fat Guy will be moving our show to Thursday nights at 7PM starting after Memorial Day!!!! for all of our live listeners!!!

I tried a delicious new product by a new company, Fiber Gourmet, makers of low-calorie pasta. I know what your thinking but I couldn’t tell the difference and with a 40% reduction in calories/serving, you gotta give it a shot!!!! For all of you “Sopranos” fans out there, fogetaboutit and give it try as well!!! check them out at www.fibergourmet.com

On our next show, May 31st, we have Wade from a great and funny blog called www.Healthbolt.net that has cool information. We also have Dr. Gerard Musante, author of The Structure House Weight Loss Plan. The Structure House Weigh Loss Plan focuses on changing yourself in deeper, more significant, more durable ways than what you can measure simply by standing on your bathroom scale. We will also talk to “Lisa” a Bariatric Surgery Patient to talk about her experiences.

Until next time, remember tomorrow is another day and keep fighting!!!!

The Doctor had to bring some great eating tips because of the quality of the guests we had on and he did. So we had another installment of …Dr Fitness’ “Things You Can Do Today” To Lose Weight Tomorrow. Here are a few of Dr. Fitness’ secrets about how to eat healthy when you go out to eat…Number 1, always get half of your food to go. Do this before they even bring it out to the table. Restaurant portions are so large you can get half to go and not even notice it. Number 2, if you are going to get a dessert just get one and share that around the table. And Number 3, start eating the low calorie healthy foods first and slowly work your way to the meats and starches. Hopefully you’ll get full before you get to those higher calorie foods and stop eating. There were a couple more tips from Dr. Fitness, but you’ll have to listen to the podcast or go to his blog to get the rest.

Kathie made sure she was in the studio so she could talk with Jack Lalanne. She’ll be away for the next couple of weeks as she films her Real Savvy Moms show in hot spots around the world.

We also got to spend time with Tanya Shorrock, Diet Nutritionist for Diet Classics. If you have listened to Dr Fitness for any length of time you know that he is dead set against any diet pill. So interviewing Tanya was pretty intense. She held her own with the Fat Guy and there were plenty of laughs. Her feelings are if you are going to spend money for diet pills at least Diet Classics pills are half the price of the name brand ones. Tanya is a nutritionist and a personal trainer in California and she herself doesn’t use these pills and all she is trying to do is to give some good information to those people out there who are going to try diet pills anyway. She knows that the only way to lose weight is through eating right and exercising.

The Doctor had to bring some great workout tips because of the quality of the guests we had on and he did. So we had another installment of …Dr Fitness’ “Things You Can Do Today” To Lose Weight Tomorrow. Here are a few of Dr. Fitness’ secrets about how to make sure you are doing a well balanced workout when you strength train…Number 1, always do a full body workout. Don’t do arms one day and legs another day. Number 2, only do 8-12 exercises when you workout at the gym. And Number 3, don’t spend too much time on one body part, especially your core. Those one hour abs classes are a waste of time and you can get hurt.
