Ladies and Gentlemen….In this corner, wearing yellow trunks and weighing in at a 1/2 gram…. Splenda….and in the opposite corner, wearing blue trunks, weighing in at svelte 1/4 gram….Equal. Merisant, the makers of Equal and McNeil Nutritionals, the makers of Splenda are scheduled to go before a jury in Federal District Court in Philadelphia. Apparently, The maker of Equal contends that Splenda has been misleading millions of consumers by fostering the notion, through television and print advertising, that Splenda is made from sugar and is natural. Splenda’s maker counters that the process to make the sweetener does indeed start with sugar.
I am not a big advocate of artificial sweeteners to begin with and I have read some interesting information regarding the effects of Aspartame on serotonin levels and for those of you who suffer from fibromyalgia or chronic migraines, I would strongly suggest you look into the relation. Here is some info that I came across. The Connection between Aspartame (Artificial Sweetener) and Panic Attacks, Depression, Bipolar Disorder, Memory Problems, and Other Mental Symptoms

C’mon guys….lighten up already!!!! They both need a few more laughs so someone please send our show to them!!!! Sunday night was loads of fun with Dr. Fitness and The Fat Guy!!! We had some really cool guests this week including Celebrity Fit Club’s Hypnotherapist, Marisa Peer, our friends Todd Regenbogen and hottie Kathlyne from Cheeracise, and the always entertaining Bob Fox who was promoting World Sport Stacking Championship. I also gave 5 more tips on things you can do today to lose weight tomorrow! Here are a few of my secrets…,(1) use props and smaller plates in order to really visualize what a proper portion size looks like. For example the meat portion of your meal should be no bigger than a deck of cards. (2) When you are eating…concentrate on your food, bite by bite. Eating slowly and chewing deliberately will help you feel full faster. (3) listen to your body. Pay attention for cues that you are full. And when you feel full - stop eating. Also don’t eat if you are feeling full to begin with. There were a couple more tips but you’ll have to listen to the podcast for the rest!!!!

Passover started Monday night and even though I love getting together with family and friends, the next eight days are going to suck, from an eating perspective. Talk about throw a wrench in your schedule!!!! No restaurants, no convenience and I really didn’t prepare as I usually do. So I will be suffering this week eating lots of Matzoh coupled with lots of fruit!!!!

I joked with the Fat Guy on this Sunday’s show about bringing me a “Venti” tea from Starbucks!! How about calling it just a small, medium, and large?

Our 1st guest on the show was Todd and Kathylne from Cheeracise and they were hysterical. Cheeracise is their company and they have dvds and a website www.cheeracise.com that teaches girls how to cheer like a pro cheerleader and also gives exercise DVD lovers a change of pace from their same old boring exercise routines with hot new cheerleader dance and fitness moves. Todd Regenbogen, the founder of Cheeracise and one of the original Cheeracise girls Kathlyne, talked to us and Todd shared with us how hard it was to weed out 800 hot professional cheerleaders. On their website, they have pictures of the Cheeracise ladies and my favorite was Summer!!!! The Fat Guy liked Winter, who happens to be a guy, but that’s a different story!!!!!

I found our next guest while I was watching VH-1’s Celebrity Fit Club. I forgot who Marisa Peer was counseling on the show about emotional eating but she was great and with her English accent, she had me at hello. I think it’s because I grew up on watching a lot of 007 James Bond movies. She had a lot of great advice for our listeners and also touched upon how the artificial sweeteners reduce serotonin uptake levels which could impact hunger and mood and all sorts of things. She is also traveling around the U.S. starting in May called “Get Thin, Stay Thin”, has a new book called “Think Yourself Thin Forever,” and a new CD called “You Can Be Thin.” She is super prolific and you can truly tell that she loves helping people sh check her out at www.marisapeer.com

Our last guest was our buddy Bob Fox from www.speedstacks.com He wanted to let our listeners know that the 2007 WSSA World Sport Stacking Championships will be held April 14-15 in Denver. Once again ESPN will be televising this great event. Go to Bob’s website www.speedstacks.com for more info about sport stacking in general as well as links to the Championship event coming up. Bob’s daughter who plays point guard for the University of Minnesota, is a World Champion as well as a couple more of his kids!!!! It’s such a great sport for young kids and adults to work on hand-eye coordination and develop certain centers of the brain. I highly recommend it for all kids!!!!! so check it out at their website, www.speedstacks.com

We’ve got another great show this Sunday, April 8th with Brian Wansink, The Great Author of the book “Mindless Eating, Why We Eat More Than We Think”, I can’t wait to talk to him about this book!!!! Gillian Verga from www.weightcircles.com, a fabulous weight control support group, and straight from the “HOT MOM’S CLUB” Sara Holliday from www.fitbysara.com

Happy Pesach and A Happy Easter!!!!!

They  have dvds and a website that teaches girls how to cheer like a pro cheerleader and also gives exercise dvd lovers a change of pace from their same old boring exercise routines with hot new cheerleader dance and fitness moves. We talked to Todd Regenbogen the founder of Cheeracise and one of the original Cheeracise girls Kathlyne. Todd shared how they use a lot of plyometric exercises in their videos and Kathlyne shared some killer cheerleading stories. Go to their website www.cheeracise.com for more.

Next up was Celebrity Fit Club hypnotherapist Marisa Peer calling in from England. On the show which airs on VH1, she did her best to keep all those celebrities on the straight and narrow using hypnosis and lots of nurturing. And that hot British accent didn’t hurt either. She shared lots of weight loss tips for our listeners like the importance of changing the language you use. For instance don’t say you want to lose weight! When you use phrases like that your mind spends a lot of time and energy helping you get things you lost back. Marisa thinks that is partially the reason why diets don’t work. In addition to being too restrictive they  have you focusing on the wrong things. Instead try thinking about how you have a super fast metabolism. You have to listen to the rest to get all her great tips. Marisa Peer also has a new book called “Think Yourself Thin Forever.” Her website features a lot of resources for people who want assistance with:  relaxation, weight control, self confidence, self esteem, perfect pregnancy, conception, younger skin and lots more.
