On tonight’s show Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy get the skinny about how to stay fit, healthy and happy while you’re going through a divorce. Debbie Nigro, founding partner of First Wives World told us all about the first website that helps women (and men) navigate the rough waters of divorce. She explained that she is not selling divorce but rather is helping people deal with a broken dream. Some of her divorce survival tips were: be sure to take care of yourself. Exercising helps your self-esteem and as you go through this you will realize that you can handle anything. For more please go to their website www.firstwivesworld.com and get help with the three stages of divorce - contemplating, navigating and moving on. There you will find a supportive, inspiring community of people going through the same things that you are going through. It’s a safe place filled with women sharing their stories , strategies, laughter and wisdom.

We also had on Regular contributor Nicci Micco, Senior Editor of Eating Well magazine. She shared with our listeners the results of the research on foods that affect your libido. This was a hot topic. Did you know some of the foods that are supposed to improve your sex drive are foods that resemble certain body parts. I don’t know for sure why Nicci brought this topic up, but it may have something to do with her current pregnant state. Who knows. Please go to the Eating Well magazine website at www.eatingwell.com and you will find lots of fun free email newsletters you can subscribe to as well as a great column on Serves Two where you can get some Valentine’s Day meal recipes for you and your special someone. And be sure to pick up the latest issue of their magazine for great recipes, info and beautiful photography.

We also had author, comedian and all around great guy Pete D’Alessandro on to talk about his book The Unamerican Undiet. Pete chronicles his amazing story about how he was depressed and fed up with his weight, hit rock bottom then did something dramatic about it. He lost 40 pounds in about 3 months by eliminating some very American food ingredients from his diet like sugar and white flour from his diet along with fried foods, rich sauces and desserts. Then he supercharged his exercise workout with the help of a trainer and guess what the pounds melted off of him. He has kept it off for three or so years now without any drastic setbacks. Check out his book and read all about it. He writes in a funny personal way. You’ll like it. Check it out on his website www.unamericanundiet.com See for yourself why he is the fittest comedian in America.
We closed the show with one of Dr Fitness’ and Kathie Larkin’s favorite exercise book authors and fitness experts Matt Brzycki. Matt is the Assistant Director of Campus Recreation/Fitness at Princeton University and he has written some of the most important books about strength training and exercise in the industry. Matt came on the show and tried to dispel some of the many myths about fitness that spread through gyms like athlete’s foot fungus…like Does Strength Training Make You Bulky? He says No. Can you do sport specific strength training? No. Should women strength train differently than men? No. There was a lot more great stuff but you’ll have to listen to get it. Check out Matt’s books at any Barnes and Noble, on Amazon or straight from his publisher at www.cardinalpub.com

Dr Fitness also gave us his Fitness Tips on unconventional ways to use food. Number 1 Use pepper in your wash to whiten those whites. Number 2. Try some white vinegar to get those stubborn deodorant sweat stains from the pits of those shirts. Number 3 Slap some cold potato slices on those puffy eyes after a long night of partying. He also shared an inspirational success story from one of the members of the Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy weight loss community that has lost some weight and is keeping it off with the help of Dr Fitness and the rest of the online weight loss community we are forming. There were lots more tips but you have to listen tot get them.
