On tonight’s show, Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy learn all about foodie vacations, low cal margarita’s and more from our good friend Tiffany Davis, Atlanta Editor of the Daily Candy. She had some great tips on how to stay at home and have your own Foodie Vacation. She called it a Foodie Vacay, but she is much hipper than me and can pull that off. She also told us how she’s dating a chef and now all her tips seem to be about food. Here are the notes she sent us on everything she talked about.

 1. www.bethennybakes.com
- ever watch the Real Housewives of NYC?
- Martha Stewart Apprentice finalist Bethenny Frankel whips up nutritious, luxurious recipes (she’s a celeb chef) that women are clamoring for after watching the show.
- She’s recently posted a recipe called “The Skinny Girl Margarita” that’s just the tip of the iceberg.

2. www.wildhibiscus.com
- packaged in spring water and shipped right from the aussie outback
- perfect when you’re tiring of being “good” and having wine spritzers. opt for one of these in some champagne or to spice up a spritzer

3. flax seeds are my newest obsession
- healthy food coaches love them because they literally can be sprinkled into just about ANY recipe, smoothie, dessert, or pasta dish and do nothing but add fiber to a meal, which can make you feel satisfied all that much quicker

4. take yourself on a foodie vacay even if you can’t afford a real one!
- www.moderndaymasala.com (pan asian classics like butter chicken and spiced cauliflower)
- www.currysimple.com (thai, indochine, and singaporean sauces)

5. grill, grill, grill!
- take fruits and vegetables out of the oven and onto meats instead of sauces and salty marinades.
- when it cools down, invest in a grill pan. they’re quick and cook food really evenly on top of adding a grill-like flavor to ‘em.

6. True Lemon/Lime
- new product that’s pure lemon, lime, and orange essence in a single serve pouch or shaker
- no cal, sugar, salt, or carbs!

7. Join a food co-op or start one
- if you were skeptical, gas prices might convince you now
- for a small member fee and about $25 a package, you have fresh vegetables and fruits on hand all the time

Next up we had on Dr Pete Scire with Brain Balance Center. The Brain Balance Program is a comprehensive program which incorporates a unique multi-faceted approach to the assessment and the development of individualized intervention plans for children affected by the Neurobehavioral/Developmental Disorders such as ADD/ADHD, Asperger’s Syndrome, Tourrette’s Syndrome, PDD, Autism, Processing Disorders, and Learning Disabilities (i.e. Dyslexia).

Based upon the most current research their program works from a brain based model which recognizes that many of the children that are diagnosed with these disorders suffer a foundational imbalance or under-connectivity of electrical (brain) activity. This imbalance or under-connectivity occurs within and between the two halves (hemispheres) and/or large networks of the brain.

They believe that it is this imbalance of function, within and between the two halves of the brain which is often responsible for many if not all of the physical, cognitive or mental, and/or behavioral difficulties related to these disorders.

Based upon their comprehensive assessment the Brain Balance Program develops and implements a unique individualized program for each and every child. Each child’s program addresses their specific areas of difficulties related to the physical (sensory/motor) needs, bio-nutritional (digestive difficulties, nutritional deficiencies) needs, as well as neuro-cognitive (academics and behavioral) needs. For more information please go to their website www.brainbalancecenters.com

Next we had on Sarah Brown with Planet Smoothie. Planet Smoothie is Kathie’s favorite Smoothie joint. She loves the Wheat Grass. Dr Fitness and her kept obsessing about how much they liked the smell. Sarah told us all about 99 cent Smoothie Days at Planet Smoothie and you can get inexpensive smoothies and not little ones either you get 22 ounces of smoothie goodness. I called her a Smoothie Sommelier and you can bet you can be seeing that show up in their ads soon. The nice thing about Planet Smoothie is that they have so many low cal and healthy choices their. And they don’t give you a hard time if you want to mix and match ingredients. Like substituting blackberries for strawberries to save a few calories. For more information please go to their website www.planetsmoothie.com. They also have all the nutritional information on their as well.

She says to “put diets and quick fixes aside - it is our lifestyle choices that matter. It’s about making healthy choices and pursuing healthy weight loss.

Therese Pasqualoni, truly believes that—“It’s not about being perfect, it’s about being healthier!” The Strike it Healthy® Weight and Health Management Systems philosophy encompasses three main concepts. 1- “learn about reputable information” to afford us power to improve our knowledge. 2- “develop critical thinking skills” to enable us to make healthy choices.” And 3- “surround ourselves with a strong support system” to encourage each other to pursue healthier and safer lifestyle behaviors.

She is also a collaborator with The Alliance for a Healthier Generation, a partnership between the American Heart Association and the William J. Clinton Foundation, helping schools serve healthier lunches.

For parents of finicky eaters, The Sneaky Chef: How to Hide Healthy Foods in Kid’s Favorite Meals, was the answer to their prayers, giving them solutions for hiding healthy food in the meals kids crave. But women know that there’s often another picky eater in the family - Men who dismiss healthy choices as unsatisfying rabbit food. So The Sneaky Chef has now catered to the guys, creating delicious recipes that will appeal to the manly appetite while sneaking in ingredients that specifically target men’s health issues.

On the show Missy explained her secret to sneak green veggies like spinach, broccoli and peas into meals. First, you puree the green vegetables then you mix in tomato paste which turns everything brown. Remember your colors red and green make brown. Now that you have this brown veggie sauce you can easily mix it into any meat sauce unnoticed.

Some Sneaky Recipes for men include: pizza, wings, ribs and nachos. Some Sneaky Recipes for kids include: mac and cheese, ice cream, and noodles.

A big Thank You to our friends at Eating Well magazine. On page 16 in the May/June issue of the magazine we made THE LIST as an EDITOR’S PICK For a Super Start To Summer. They said and I quote “Fight Fat With Friends. Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy share health tips on their weekly podcasts, and often feature EATING WELL’s Nicci Micco. They’ve also launched an online support system to help people adopt new habits and connect with others doing the same. ” Check out the magazine and their website www.eatingwell.com

On tonight’s show Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy learn all about how to get in shape for your wedding from the star of Buff Brides Sue Fleming.

Fitness expert Sue Fleming is the creator of the Buff Fitness® workout regimen. The program’s popularity led to a critically acclaimed reality TV series – Buff Brides – on Discovery Health Channel, still in reruns on Fit TV. Sue’s new Buff line of workout DVDs are based on her Random House/Villard book series, which includes Buff Brides, Buff Moms, Buff Moms-to-Be, and Fashionably Buff.

Sue is the newest celebrity trainer to join the roster of ExerciseTV, a new multi-platform television network dedicated to fitness, motivation and sports training. Segments from each of Sue’s Buff workout DVDs can be viewed free on-demand by all Comcast, Time Warner and Cox digital cable customers.

Sue, a naturally competitive athlete, instinctively knew the better the bride looked and felt out of her clothes, the more magical she would look (and feel!) while donning the breath-taking couture creation of her fantasy wedding. And so was born the Buff Fitness regimen. Far more than another cleverly packaged brand, Fleming has brought a sense of steadfast teamwork to a results oriented regimen that has grown into a global health and fitness empire.

A native of New York’s Long Island, Fleming found her calling early on as she yearned for the camaraderie of team sports first at Riverhead High School and later while attending Canisius College in Buffalo, NY, where she earned her Masters. This proved to be particularly challenging in an era when women in sports were still a relative rarity. “I was so grateful for women like Chris Evert and Billie Jean King, as they proved that women could be strong and athletic…and win!” recalls Fleming.

Sue says that whether you have six days or six months you can make a huge difference in the way you look and feel. The real challenge however is to maintain it for 60 years. That’s where Sue takes over. Dedicated to working with clients to overcome their fears of fitness and body image, Sue develops the most important muscle of all…self-esteem.

Rather than resting on her well-toned laurels, Sue sees endless possibilities in bringing her message of fitness to the world. That’s why Sue wants women to understand that a fitness regimen is not a quick fix, but a long-term way of life.

Sue gave us some of her best tips so our listeners could become buff brides or even buff grooms. She said you have to give yourself at least 3 months to get yourself in shape preferably 6 months or more. And please set a realistic goal. If you gained 30 pounds over 10 years you are not going to lose them in 30 days. Sue said her record weight loss for a client was taking her from about 220 pounds down to 145.

A popular fixture in the media… USA Today, Cosmopolitan and InStyle Weddings not to mention a sought after guest on ABC TV’s Good Morning America learn more about Sue on her website www.buff-fitness.com

We started the show off with one of our good friends Tiffany Davis, Atlanta Editor of the Daily Candy. Tiffany shared with our listeners some of the hottest exercise gear choices out there.

On tonight’s show Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy get the skinny about Gourmet Healthy Eating from Dr Gourmet Dr. Tim Harlan. Dr Harlan is an Internist in New Orleans, who has had a love of food preparation since he was a teenager washing dishes in a restaurant. Along the way he learned cooking from many fine chefs, and at age twenty-two opened his own restaurant: a small country-French café.

Dr. Harlan originally was going to get a degree in restaurant management, but he ultimately chose to become a doctor.Working as a caterer throughout school, he continued to be involved with food and cooking but noticed a lack of knowledge in the medical field about eating healthy and eating well. Neither patients nor health care providers understood much about a healthful diet. Patients, it seemed, were usually told not what they could eat but, rather, what they could not eat.

And that is where Dr Gourmet was born. He was uniquely qualified to combine the benefits of creating healthy tasty recipes for his his patients.
His website has eatTHISdiet plans for his patients and anyone else who is interested. There are diets that are low cholesterol, low fat, low sodium. If you have acid reflux / GERD or are on Coumadin / Warfarin and soon if you are lactose intolerant you can find recipes just for you.

We started the show with the Pasta Queen Jennette Fulda author of the upcoming book Half Assed: A Weight Loss Memoir. Jennette says she entered this world weighing 8 pounds 5 ounces and came close to leaving it at 372 pounds. After several false starts, she started working her weight loss attempt in 2005. She blogged about it along the way and two short years later she had officially lost 186 pounds, half her weight. She is looking to drop a few more pounds to get down to her goal weight of 160. Her story is truly inspiring - she started out barely able to go a half mile on the treadmill and today she is training for her first half marathon. Please check out her blog and cheer her on to her goal weight. And while your their you can pre-order her upcoming book. www.pastaqueen.com

Then we had on one of the amazing people we met when we attended the Publicity Summit in New York…Carole Brody Fleet The Widow Who Wears Stilettos. Carole was widowed at a young age and has now devoted large part of her life trying to help other young widows get back on track and live a fuller more balanced life. She has a website and an upcoming book. Her book Widows Wear Stilettos: A Practical Guide For The Young Widow is especially timely now with the war helping to create widows as young as 17 years old. Her website which is the first of its kind to deal with women going through this difficult challenge. Check it out at www.widowswearstilettos.com.

Then we had the Fat Guy’s Favorite drink from 2007 John Paul Lee founder of Tavalon Tea. Tavalon has been called the Starbucks of Tea. But we think they are better than that. Did you know that all tea comes from the tea leaf leaf but how it is processed determines whether it will be green, black or white? John-Paul knows that and so much more. This guy is so passionate about tea and how to give his customers a great tea experience. He talked at length about the health benefits tea. Did you know white tea has the least caffeine and black tea has the most. there are several Tavalon Tea Bars in New York City and I’m sure there will be many more popping up all over the country. This guy is on to something. So if you are interested in learning more about the ant-aging benefits of tea and want a truly premium tea you must go to www.tavalon.com. They will deliver the finest tea and tea accessories right to your door. The fat Guy says checks they are the best!

And we closed the show with sweet talkin Tiffany “T-Love” Davis from the Daily Candy. Tiffany as always shares websites and resources that you cannot find on your own. She is out there scouring the internet and the streets of Atlanta to find the next hot thing. Like Bacon Salt, two flavors that were born to go together like chocolate and peanut butter. Go to www.baconsalt.com for more info. How about a site that helps you save the world a few grains of rice at a time. Go to www.freerice.com play a vocabulary game and for every correct answer you are donating some rice to hungry people. Tiffany also mentioned that a great way to start the new year off on the right foot is to start a gratitude journal. Every night before bed just take a moment to write down what you are grateful for. This might be a nice gesture from the stranger who held the door open for you or a kind word you child said to you. Only write about the good things that happened to you and you’ll have a much better attidue the next day.
