Dr. Fitness and the Fat Guy

I am so proud of my close friend, Lisa Lillien, “The Hungry Girl.” This week she is on her regular spot on the TV show “Extra,” in “People Magazine,” and to top it off The LA Daily News wrote a cover article about her in the food section. Here is the article and make sure you check out her awesome web site www.hungry-girl.com She is the best!!!! and there are a lot of people out there trying to copy here. Fuggetaboutit!!!! I have friends in Jersey who will straighten things out with the Fugazzs!!!!! Some 95,000 hungry chicks (and a few guys, too) hang on every word a certain Encino Hungry Girl sends them each weekday. That gal is the petite (5-foot, 1-inch, 118 pounds), 39-year old Lisa Lillien, who started her free Hungry Girl e-mails with 200 subscribers (mostly friends) just two years ago.

Another hilariously informative Dr. Fitness and the Fat Guy show, the funniest weight loss and fitness radio show on the internet. This week Doctor Fitness gives you the skinny on separating fact from fiction when it comes to magic diet pills, diet potions and diet patches. Here’s the Doctor’s 8 tips to avoid being ripped off by these so called magic diet pills. #8. Google search the ingredients back to reputable sites like www.fda.gov or www.webmd.com. #7. Remember that people get paid to endorse products. And doctors are people too. #6. Make sure the group that is doing the so called unbiased study has no monetary affiliation with the product. #5. Everyone wants to believe their is some magic to help them lose weight and these unscrupulous marketers exploit that. #4. Don’t settle for anecdotal evidence as validation these pills actually work. #3. Look for double blind studies that last for years not 4-8 weeks. Also make sure those labs are independent. #2. Read the labels carefully. Don’t get distracted by inferred endorsements, slick doctor quotes or phony before and after pictures. #1. Remember, if it sounds too good to be true. It probably is.

Here’s a quote by yogamaster BKS Iyengar that sums up my position on this craziness. “Physical health is not a commodity to be bargained for. It cannot be swallowed in the form of drugs or pills. It has to be earned through sweat.”
