On tonight’s show, Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy get the skinny about getting in shape while on holiday from Anja one of the founders of Escape to Shape.  Escape to Shape offers vacations combining comfort, culture and fitness at exotic locations around the world. Not only will you enjoy luxurious accommodations, delicious food and the latest fitness class you’ll also sample some of the best spa amenities available. Anja says that her vacations are perfect for singles as well as couples. Find out where they are headed next, I’ll give you a hint…think The Soprano’s. For more information about Escape to Shape check out their website www.escapetoshape.com

Tonight we had on two of the Internet’s biggest stars John Biggs from CrunchGear who shared with us the fitness gadgets he finds from his travels from around the world. He just came back from Japan where he saw the first personal trainer/cell phone. This device is part pedometer, part heart rate monitor, part phone. the only thing it doesn’t do is wipe the sweat off your forehead. John also talked about lots of other cool gadgets and fitness gear but you’ll have to listen to get the skinny. For more information check out John’s blogs  www.crunchgear.com and www.runninggearreview.com

After John we were so lucky to have Tiffany Davis from Daily Candy in the studio with us. Tiffany is one of our favorite guests and she talked all about fun ways to build a healthy kitchen. As you know she and her staff are always researching the latest and the greatest next cool thing. First Tiffany talked about these super cool flavor sheets you put right on top of your favorite food as you cook it. She also mentioned something about the return of the Snoopy Sno Cone Maker and some other equally wild stuff.  For more information about The Daily Candy please go to their website www.dailycandy.com and be one of the 3 gazillion other subscribers to get their daily email newsletter.

And that wasn’t it, as you know the Fat Guy is always researching quality, kind of healthy, delicious snacks. And he found another one. PopChips. PopChips are kind of healthy chips. These are never fried, never baked, all natural chips. Since these amazing bites of crunchy goodness are popped instead of fried they can fit more fo them in the bag for the same calories. For example, an old school chip company might fit  10 chips in a 100ish calorie  bag with PopChips you’ll get twice that for about the same calories. That’s right more crunches per calorie. the Fat Guy loved the BBQ and Dr Fitness loved the Wasabi. Try them for yourselves. Go to there website for all the locations you can find them or to order them online. www.PopChips.com

Dr. Fitness was back with his tips on how to adjust your workout and attitude to the changing weather. He said 1-bring your workouts indoors; 2-chnage up the workouts…if you were biking and running now try yoga or stretching classes 3- change your wardrobe to accommodate the changing weather…remember no white after Labor Day. He had more great fitness tips but you’ll have to listen to get them.

Hot mom, Kathie Larkin was with us again. You know Kathie as the host of Real Savvy Moms.  Real Savvy Moms is a great show for hot moms, fat moms, all kinds of moms and is available on most PBS’ around the US and online.

“The funniest weight loss and fitness radio show on the internet.” Please click on the POD button to listen to the latest Dr. Fitness and the Fat Guy show.  

Due to Technical Difficulties (actually the Fat Guy started using Alli and we couldn’t get him out of the bathroom) we are replaying one of our most popular shows from October of 2006. Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy are very sorry and promise to be back next week with a new show featuring more great weight loss and fitness experts.

On tonight’s show, Doctor Fitness and the Fat Guy get the skinny about the hottest diet out there…The Shangri-La Diet by Seth Roberts. Stephen Dubner, author of Freakonomics said that this is “A weight-loss theory that just might benefit a few million people.” Check out all the Freakonomic spin on The Shangri-La Diet at http://www.freakonomics.com/times0911.php The Fat Guy is going to try this diet as long as he can. So far he has drank one bottle of sugar water and is feeling full. According to Seth you should either drink some olive oil or sugar water a couple of times each day in between meals. This will lower your caloric set point, which will help you eat less calories each day which will help you lose weight. Sounds pretty easy, Check out The Shangri-La Diet website to get tips and great information from the online forum of active dieters as www.shangriladiet.com

The Doctor also shared his tips on how to make exercise a top 3 non-negotiable priority. Number 1, when you are exercising you are being a good role model for your family - teaching your kids that exercise is an important part of each day. Number 2, schedule things around exercise - don’t use your work out time as time that is flexible to eliminate or move around. And number 3, you will have to listen to the show to find out that one and all the rest of these great exercise tips.

Another highlight of this show was the Fat guy giving his how to peel a pomegranate tip. the Fat Guy has mastered the intricate technique you need to effectively peel this wonderful fruit. So search the Dr. Fitness and the Fat Guy blog to see how it’s done.

On tonight’s show, Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy get the skinny about  menopause and other women things that made the Fat Guy very uncomfortable from TS Wiley the author of “Sex, Lies and Menopause” and “Lights Out: Sleep, Sugar and Survival.”  TS also developed The Wiley Protocol the only HRT that has been developed under the scrutiny of a practicing Oncologist. Her revolutionary discovery is the fact that it’s the rhythm that matters in the replacement of hormones. TS developed this protocol when she asked the question “if hormone replacement was made of real bio-identical hormones and dosed to mimic the ups and downs of the hormone blood levels in a normal menstrual cycle of a 20 year-old woman, would all the symptoms and disease states of aging decline? Well you’ll have to listen to the show to hear her answer. She also revealed one of the first symptoms of menopause. For more information about menopause, getting a good nights sleep, TS Wiley, her books and her Wiley Protocol please go to her website www.thewileyprotocol.com
And for the first time ever, we had on Eric from TheDietChannel.com. theDietChannel.com is a great website that features straight forward information on diet, fitness, nutrition and health from leading weight loss experts. We discussed things like: does Alli really work; is there an easy weight loss solution; and other diet, fitness and weight loss topics. Eric also told our listeners what he has learned about what diet strategy works, after reviewing all the latest popular and fad diets. You have to listen to the show. You can find all kinds of information on all of the popular diets as well as some practical weight loss tips and commentary. Please go to www.thedietchannel.com and check them out.

Since Dr Fitness had better things to do it was left up to Kathie and the Fat Guy to come up with some useful tips and boy did we. Kathie gave some great exercises if you want to get tank top arms. And the Fat Guy gave his annual tip on how to peel a pomegranate.

Before I get into the show notes I’d like to give a very special shout out to Drea from Indiana she is the winner of a great exercise DVD. She sent in a very kind email sharing her weight loss story - she has lost 160 pounds  by listening to the Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy radio show… Her weight loss probably had more to do with the eating and exercise habits she changed but she did say our show was her favorite to work out to. Great job Drea, keep up the good work and anyone else who wants to win a free exercise dvd please blog about us and email us your weight loss story - it could be a plateau you’re trying to break through where Dr Fitness can help or it can be a success story. Either way you can win!

Now on with the show…
On tonight’s show, Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy get the skinny about where a girl can go to have some fun with the original Social Diva, Peg Samuel. Peg kindly called us right in the middle of her shopping day from in front of the Versace store on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills, California. No matter how much the Fat Guy begged Peg would not bring him back those XL Versace sweatpants he’s had his eye on. Peg did share lots of insight into what makes a Social Diva and why www.SocialDiva.com is the perfect solution for ladies (and smart guys) who are looking for more action. At the Social Diva website you don’t get only the skinny on where the latest hot spot is you can also learn where to shop, where to eat and other important things. So check them out for yourself at www.SocialDiva.com and learn how you can bring out your inner Diva!

And what would Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy show be without Sweet Susi May, the brilliant and beautiful editor of FitSugar. Susi shared lots of tips tonight. She had tips about about gym etiquette, she explained the importance of stretching, she even gave away the 4 most important things you should be doing everyday if you want to live a long life and most importantly she told our listeners an easy way to win a brand new FREE Polar F11 Heart Rate Monitor. If you want a chance to win the Polar Heart Rate monitor all you have to do is go to Fit Sugar and comment on one of the gazillion blog posts they have on the site and you will be entered to win. I think that’s what she said, she talks fast so go to www.FitSugar.com for the exact rules.

And our last guest was JR, the guy behind the Wii Weight Loss Plan. He has lost over 40 pounds just playing video games. He’s my hero. Not just any video games though Wii Games…mostly Wii Sports. He especially likes the boxing, but he plays it all every day for at least 30 vigorous minutes at a time. He’s trying to lose 80 pounds so he’s half way there. So please go to www.WiiWeightLossPlan.com and check in on him and give him some encouragement to reach his goal. See you don’t have to go to the gym to lose weight.. just find something you like to do and stick with it.

And Number 3, if you have diabetes, a heart condition or poor circulation you should probably avoid this procedure.

Jessica Myers from Garmin (the GPS folks) came on to discuss a new Garmin product - the “Forerunner 305″ that combines a watch with a heart rate monitor and a gps device. This amazing watch tracks your every move while you run or play sports. You can see your heart rate and your exact running course. Dr Fitness absolutely loved it. He had it on while he played soccer and realized he doesn’t run anywhere near the amount he thought he did.  It also works with software that lets you track your progress and it even interacts with Google Earth. Please go to www.garmin.com to get more information on this amazing device .
