On tonight’s show Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy learn how about the surprisingly simple weight loss plan for hardworking people who don’t have time to diet from Heather Bauer, RD, CDN, author of The Wall Street Diet and founder of www.Nu-Train.com. If your life is busy and chaotic then you should check this out.

Heather Bauer is a Registered Dietitian specializing in the interrelation between eating habits, metabolism, and lifestyle. Since 2001, she has offered private diet and nutrition counseling through her New York City-based nutrition practice, Nu-Train.

Ms. Bauer received her RD from the University of Wisconsin and started her career in the pre- and post-natal nutrition unit at Maimonides Medical Center in New York, and as a staff nutritionist at Equinox Fitness Clubs.

Ms. Bauer has appeared as a featured nutritionist in several health and beauty publications including Elle, Marie Claire, Gotham, Self, Seventeen, YM, TimeOut, New York Magazine, and Fitness Magazine. She has also appeared as a guest expert on the CBS Early Morning Show as well as FOX News.

Her brand new book THE WALL STREET DIET: The Surprisingly Simple Weight Loss Plan for Hardworking People Who Don’t Have Time to Diet (Hardcover) by Heather Bauer is available at her website www.wallstreetdiet.com.

Bauer, a dietician, directs her flexible plan at people who would never go for prepackaged meals or calorie counting. Her clientele are workaholics who grab meals on the go, do business over expense-account lunches and are frequently confronted by unhealthy treats in the conference room or at office parties. Bauer claims her approach makes losing weight a seamless part of the corporate lifestyle rather than an add-on project to an already full schedule.

First, readers are asked to decide if they are a Clean Plate Clubber or a Controlled Eater, as this will help determine the course of their diet in regards to snacking, purchasing food and meal portions. Next, they are allowed to choose a few non-negotiables, i.e., the things they feel they cannot live without.

Once these guidelines are intact, Bauer offers strategies for dealing with the food choices most working people confront daily (for ordering in with co-workers, take note of the healthy menu options beforehand, and don’t succumb to dishes like General Tso’s Chicken). Though Bauer’s diet consists of nothing earth-shattering (avoid flour and refined sugar, control portion sizes, etc.), the specificity of the situations and solutions presented should appeal to its target audience who are busy people.

Next we had on Laura King with www.Lauraking.net

Laura is frequently sought out by Olympians, leading edge CEO’s, professional athletes, prominent physicians, award-winning trainers and parents. She teaches individuals how to utilize their minds to make lasting changes in both their performance and lives.

In her recent book, The Power to Win, King explains how the use of hypnosis and Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) can easily help anyone conquer fear, build confidence and obtain unprecedented success. A popular speaker and admired life coach, Laura has published over 150 CDs and workbooks covering topics such as stress management, peak performance, public speaking, overcoming illness and much more.

Mrs. King is director and founder of Summit Dynamics, LCC and is a certified hypnotist and certified sport hypnotist. A student of human excellence and positive behavior modification for over 25 years, Laura was trained at the Omni Hypnosis Training Center and the Don Mottin Sports Hypnosis Training Center, and received her NLP training from Dr. William Horton. She also spent over two decades studying with her mentor, Dorothy Gates, Ph.D., internationally recognized authority on child and adult development.

She has an excellent tool to help you lose weight called the Complete Weight Loss / Be Fit for Life Series.

The Be Fit for Life Series - Complete Weight Loss Program gets results by retraining your brain to attain and maintain the ideal weight for your body type. Long-term weight loss is not a matter of willpower, it’s about changing thought patterns that trigger behavior. Through self-hypnosis CDs, your subconscious mind puts you on autopilot to get and keep the body that is just right for you. You become focused on healthy eating, speeding up your metabolism, and developing a positive self-image.

Then we were lucky to have the most popular home chef in Atlanta Megan McCarthy with www.Healthyeating101.com in the studio with us. Megan is a former vegan and vegetarian and brings her raw foodist background into real life, incorporating highly nutritious food into a healthy eating lifestyle.

Megan took an interest in healthy eating when she was trying to lose weight after college. After trying every diet out there, she realized it was all about feeding the body nourishing and smart foods…simply called “Superfoods.” All-natural and given to us in their perfect form, she transforms Superfoods into everyday eating pleasure.

Megan has been in the restaurant business since she was 16. Some have included “Karyn’s Fresh Corner” raw foods restaurant and several “Lettuce Entertain You” restaurants in Chicago. She has taught healthy cooking classes for over 8 years. She teaches in both Chicago and Atlanta for Whole Foods Market, Cook’s Warehouse, Latin School”s Live and Learn, Discovery Center as well as many private home classes. Her classes sell out fast, as she is always one the most popular cooking instructors wherever she goes.

Megan also provides professional chef services to national corporate tradeshow clients at FMI (Food Marketing Institute), PMA (Produce Marketing Assoc.) and the International Home & Housewares Show. She has made guest chef appearances at Crate & Barrel’s Gourmet Pantry and at the NBC Health and Fitness Expos. She has also made guest appearances on radio and television programs, such as the nationally syndicated show, “Starting Over,” helping the women of the house choose healthier food alternatives. She was recently featured on DailyCandy.com for her healthy home cooking classes in Chicago.

And finally we closed the show with Jordan Goldberg who is with the website www.stickk.com

stickK promotes healthier and happier living by helping people achieve their personal goals through the signing of Commitment Contracts. Happier people = happier world!

On stickK, you draw up an official commitment contract that binds you to achieving a personal goal, be it big or small. By agreeing to this contract, you publicly state your goal and commit to achieving it. Or, if grand public pronouncements aren’t your style, you can tell only people you select. Either way, you’ve committed to a goal and people know about it - so now it’s your reputation at stake!

To make you accountable as you work toward your goal, you file weekly reports on your success. (And don’t even think about lying — because you appoint someone you know as a “referee” to verify the accuracy of your reporting!) You also enlist as many Supporters as you’d like to encourage you, via the website, every step of the way. If being part of a group gives you momentum, you can join a community of people on the site who are working toward the same goal as you (this feature will be ready in February). To keep yourself focused throughout your adventure, you record your progress – daily — in a personal journal.

Want to up the ante? Gamble more than your reputation. Place a financial wager on yourself.

And finally we closed the show with one of our favorite regulars Nicci Micco from EatingWell magazine stopped by to share all she knows about organic food and the importance of eating local.

Eating organic berries instead of conventional ones can reduce your exposure to pesticides, and recent research suggests that it also may give you a nutrient boost.

According to Marissa Lippert’s, M.S., R.D. article in this month’s Eating Well magazine the bottom line is…“Eating more fresh fruits and vegetables in general [not necessarily organic ones] is the point,” says Alyson Mitchell, Ph.D., an associate professor of food science and technology at University of California, Davis.

If buying all organic isn’t a priority—or a financial reality for you—you might opt for organic specifically when you’re selecting foods that are most heavily contaminated with pesticide and insecticide residues. According to the Environmental Working Group (www.ewg.org), those include peaches, apples, bell peppers, celery, nectarines, strawberries, cherries, lettuce, imported grapes and pears.

For more information about organics and eating well in general check out Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy’s favorite foodie magazine at www.eatingwell.com and when you’re their be sure to sign up for some of their great email newsletters.

Dr Fitness’ Fitness Tips were done this week by Kathie Larkin. She had some great activities you and your kids should check out…Number 1 -www.ymca.com has information about Healthy Kids Day on April 12 Number 2 - REI is sponsoring a great program called Get Out There to encourage participation in outdoor fun this Spring. There were more great tips but you’ll have to listen to get the rest.

This 57-minute strength and fat-burning program will get anyone in shape to hit the beach in a smaller, more daring swimsuit within weeks. Designed and directed by fitness expert Terry Simpson (star of Abs Diet Workout 2: Get Fit, Stay Fit, also from Rodale), the workout is credible (and Lauren’s looks are incredible), easy to follow, and challenging. The  DVD is available wherever fitness videos are sold as well as www.amazon.com.

Baywatch is a global phenomenon that has attracted more than two billion viewers worldwide and was the most-watched TV show of the ’90s. The beach body theme runs throughout the Baywatch DVD. Shot on the beach in Malibu, the workout segments have lifeguard themes like “Rescue Shape” to work the upper body and “Surfing” to work balance. Most of the moves are familiar, like lunges and squats, making it easy to master—yet there are challenging moves like in-and-out push-ups.

Lauren guides viewers through cardio segments and muscle-toning exercises, letting viewers know what they can expect. Muscles are worked from head to toe, mostly with the help of hand weights. Bonus segments include “Baywatch Sun Protection Tips” and talent slide shows of Lauren and her two backups, C.J. and Derrick.

For more information about Lauren and what she’s up to including her clothing line, her art and more check out her website www.laurenjones.net

Next up we had on Mr Breakfast, the world’s undisputed #1 expert on breakfast. The Klark Kent to Mr Breakfast’s Superman is Eddy Chavey, an accomplished author and a graduate of the Los Angeles New School Of Cooking.

His Mission is to instill the importance of eating breakfast; to show how multi-faceted and fantastic the most important meal of the day can be and to help provide breakfast to those in need through the promotion of school breakfast programs and food charities via The Breakfast Of Love Miracle Network.

Donna Krech, creator of the Donna Krech Connection shared her 7 reasons people lose their motivation.

PAm has done celebrity funerals like Richard Pryor’s but spends most of her time helping regular folks go out in a way that really celebrates their life instead of a typical sad preachy service from a religious leader who in some cases barely knows the departed. I’ve heard of one funeral where the pastor just filled in a Mad Libs style eulogy with the person’s name. Funeral’s don’t have to be a buzz kill they can really be meaningful, fun and inspirational. Visit Pam online at www.thefunerallady.com or www.celebrantpam.comfor more information.

Radio Show Recap: Raymond Francis Teaches Us How To Never Be Sick (or Fat) Again. Danielle Tiano and Karen Child Want To Protect Your Kids From Internet Porn. Minda Burr Wants You To Have More Fun. And Michelle Bersell Gives You An Owners Manual To Your Emotions

Friday, February 29th, 2008

The most entertaining weight loss and fitness podcast show on radio.” Please click PLAY to listen to the latest Dr. Fitness and the Fat Guy radio show podcast broadcasting live each week from Atlanta, GA, USA. To download the show on iTunes please click on this link

On tonight’s show Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy learn how to Never Be Fat Again and Never Be Sick Again from Raymond Francis, founder of Beyond Health. Raymond is an M.I.T.-trained scientist and an expert in supplement chemistry. He has been called “one the few scientists to achieve a breakthrough understanding of health and disease.” And that endorsement wasn’t given to him by his good friend actor, Rob Schneider.I don’t know how he did it but Rob Schneider went on the Jimmy Kimmel show and basically did an infomercial for Raymond’s philosophy and books. You have to check it out on his website.

Raymond has created an interesting model of health that addresses the causes of disease rather than treating its symptoms. When you address the causes, he says the problems disappear. He believes there is only ONE DISEASE and only TWO CAUSES of disease. He wouldn’t tell us what they were but he said his website could give us a lot of good information about it.

The health information on his website and in his books Never Be Sick Again and Never Be Fat Again as well as his newsletter Beyond Health News is designed to inform you of health choices that will empower you to choose health, helping you to get well, stay well and never be sick again. During the interview he gave us great tips like eat fresh fruits and veggies, don’t eat processed foods, use high quality supplementation and make sure you get enough calcium. He also mentioned that because the soil contains much less minerals and nutrients you have to eat a lot more vegetables and fruits to get the same level of nutrition as you would have 50 years ago. So he thinks supplements are the way to go. Please check out his website www.beyondhealth.com for more information.

We started the show and we ended the show with Danielle Tiano and Karen Child. They flew all the way from Southern California to meet with us live int he studio. They are the creators of the Temptation of a Generation series of books. While this may seem off topic for us, Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy are both parents who care deeply about protecting children from unnecessary harm and that’s exactly what these two brilliant ladies do.

The Temptation of a Generation series is the first children’s series to tackle the tough issues today’s kids face in the information age. The series addresses pre-teen and adolescent issues such as self-image, technology addiction, relationships and more. With beautifully detailed illustrations, the books create a visual experience and teach important life lessons that will serve children well into adulthood.

Both Danielle and Karen have a passion to protect, educate and entertain children and they believe that the best way to do that is through the parents.

Their books begin by encouraging young readers to think about what effect technology has on their lives, specifically the activities and relationships they miss out on by focusing on the Internet and other electronics. The first in the series, Temptation of a Generation, explains the stages of Internet addiction and how the pornographic industry targets children as young as 8-years old.

Many families do not know how to open the forbidden lines of communication regarding sex and pornography, yet it needs to be addressed in every home…their books are the tool to do so. Some parents want to have “the talk” but don’t know how; others are too busy or naive thinking that problems will never find their child. After introducing the tough topic to your child, Danielle and Karen provide questions to facilitate a discussion and a worksheet to help develop Internet boundaries for your home. This series of books is a must have for every parent of kids who are online. Please go to their websites and get more information and buy their books. www.temptationofageneration.com, www.beyondyourwords.com, www.karenchildmft.com and www.lifestarsocal.com. They have a newsletter and they are available to help you help your kids.

We also had on Minda Burr, author of The Art of Fun and The Power of Play Workbook. Minda shared her experiences helping people regain their sense of fun. She does exciting workshops on the Art of Fun and uses her background as a drama coach to get her clients to loosen up, let their hair down and wake up their inner child. Please check out her website www.mindaburr.com for more information about her book and to see if there is a workshop coming to your city. BTW she designs the most amazing jewelry, you can see some of it on her website as well.

Next we had on Michelle Bersell, author of the book Emotional Abundance: Become Empowered. This book has been called an owners manual to your emotions. Michelle is a psychotherapist and life coach who teaches us how to honor our authentic selves and utilize our emotional process to reveal the direction that will support us to live our best life.

She believes that most of us have been going about our lives getting by with what we feel we can handle. Our lives do not feel balanced because they are so full. There is so much that we must be responsible for that our days feel dictated by those demands. When we are living like this, she call it “survival mode.”

Survival mode is living our life based on what we need to do to get by each day and fulfilling the demands placed on us.

Unfortunately, when we are in survival mode, we feel depleted and run down, which means we are not truly living. this is where we are susceptible to being overweight. If you are struggling with your weight Michelle says “Don’t be a victim to your weight” Instead of “shoulding” yourself with put downs try focusing on what is going to best serve you. Are you really willing to honor yourself? For more information please go to Michelle’s website www.michellebersell.com. You can order her book at www.emotionalabundance.com. Sign up for newsletter, one of her retreats and why not some private coaching. Also check out her MentalityGal column in CitiGal magazine.

He might of been rich but he was also extremely overweight in fact he weighed 430 pounds. He says he had a 62 inch waist when he was at his heaviest. He tried every diet, he even had his wife gain weight in order to join weight watchers so he could get their diet plan.

Then, almost miraculously, he discovered the start of an eating program that might work for him. He ate his son’s frozen grapes and then swapped them for his nightly bags of chips and dip. In only a few weeks he had lost 20 pounds. Little by little he started eating loads of fruits, vegetables and lean meats…Even starchy vegetables – the ones the low-carb plans didn’t allow. He was consuming 1000’s of calories a day, more than any diet had allowed. Better yet? There were no points, no food scales, no reading labels or counting carbs. All real foods and REAL portions. Roger stumbled on a diet that made him“Feel Full Faster and Longer”. His book, Lets Do Lunch, shares his story and his recommendation for the foods you should be eating in order to lose weight. these are foods that bypass the stomach and go right to the colon.
