Amazingly the Fat Guy is being followed by thousands of people who are interested in what he does each day. Who would have thought? Anyone can follow the Fat Guy's exploits on Twitter. Food journals are great ways to lose weight and the Fat Guy is always trying anything in order to lose those last 20 pounds. So take a peek into his food diary. You never know what he'll write. Somehow he can stay compliant to writing on Twitter but he can't fit in exercise each day. That's right, moments after he eats something the Fat Guy used to Twitter about it and you can follow him so that one day if you try real hard you too can look like the Fat Guy. Please go to www.twitter.com/fatguy

Remember we are now on every morning in Michigan. On radio station WKNW. They asked us to create a Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy "Wellness Minute." So now a new Wellness Minute runs on that station each morning at around 7:40. Each Wellness Minute features the doctor and I going over 5 of his best tips on a given wellness subject like: losing weight, getting in shape, living a healthy lifestyle, etc. Now these Wellness Minutes are available online. If you have a favorite radio station that you think would benefit from our Wellness Minutes send them an email telling them about it and who knows maybe you can hear us everyday too.

Also once again, I need you to please do me a favor. My kid Max has been doing a radio show called "Kid Power Radio" for awhile now and you should check it out. Tiffany from The Daily Candy called his family friendly radio show "Hilarious!" This is a great show for your kids. It is kind of like a kids version of TMZ or Entertainment Tonight mixed in with a little Wayne's World. Max recaps the week in entertainment and gives his take and review of what he liked and didn't like on TV, at the movies, video games, in books and in music and even restaurant reviews. Please go to his site and download the show for your kid. He had a big show recently he interviewed Meatwad from Aqua Teen Hunger Force on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim, someone from Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Circus and even Miranda Cosgrove star of Nickelodeon's Hit TV Show iCarly. And if your kid sends Max an email he'll read it on the air next week. The show can be found at www.kidpowerradio.com and you can email Max at RadioStarMax at Yahoo.com. He has gotten emails from kids from England, Australia, China and even the US. Your encouragement is greatly appreciated. Thanks to you his show is rocketing up the charts!

We haven't updated our SobeFit magazine Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy Weight Loss Challenge in awhile because I think it's over - we did not lose 50 pounds combined - we lost over 30 pounds combined which isn't too shabby.

On today's show Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy opened the show with a guy who wrote into our website complaining that we should go to jail for telling people about Holey Donuts - he also we were mean to Gary Taubes. This guy has a major man crush on Gary and said we spent too much of the interview goofing on him rather than letting him share his low carb wisdom. He also says our show is a sham and we are the reason everyone is overweight. So you don't want to miss his part.

The real show began with Rory Freedman, author of the NY Times Bestseller Skinny Bitch who came on to talk about Skinny Bastard. which is that kick in the butt men need to lose wight and get buff. Rory has a bunch of great advice for men who need to drop a few pounds. to learn more about this book please go to www.skinnybastard.net

Next up we had on Thomas Madden, inventor of the Knife and Fork Lift. While all our listeners know Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy have been talking about weighted silverware since we started the show, Thomas actually went out and invented it. He is a doer and we are just dreamers. His mini barbell like fork and knife set will definitely slow down your eating, just like we have been saying for years. To learn more please go to his website www.knifeandforklift.com

We closed the show with Rob Luka, author of the book How to Help Children Overcome Fear in a Medical Setting.

Hollywood's Hottest Fitness Trainer Tracy Effinger's New Squeeze DVD. LA Councilwoman Jan Perry Returns. Plus the Daily Candy

Thu, 5 Feb 2009 18:54:00 GMT

On today's show Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy we opened with the return of LA Councilwoman Jan Perry who continued to impress us with her political moves to socially engineer Los Angeles to her liking. As expected she has done an arguably less than stellar job removing the businesses that have harmed her constituents but is now apparently grandstanding on an issue just to get publicity for herself and help her as she moves forward in her quest for higher public offices. Nothing is as inspiring as someone who is using the media to move up the government food chain. If only politicians would use their ambition and connections in order to take the personal risk themselves which is necessary to build thriving businesses in their own communities rather than game the system to make it harder for legitimate businesses who have figured out a way to prosper in challenging environemts. To learn more about her go to her website here

Next up we had on Tracy Effinger who talked about her new exercise dvd titled Squeeze: Lower Body Challenge. tracy is an innovative trainer who has worked with several high profile celebrity clients like Will Ferrill, Sela Ward and Eve. She works in Richards Simmons gym and has learned from him how to build a great workout and a large following of dedicated clients. This dvd and all the other Squeeze dvds focus on isometric movements to give you a challenging and effective workout. To learn more please go to her website www.squeezebytracy.com

We closed the show with our good friend Tiffany Davis, Atlanta Editor of the Daily Candy. She came on and shared some the best Valentine's Day gift ideas that have been or are going to be featured in the various Daily Candy editions from around the country. She mentioned healthy do it yourself valentine's day gift ideas like creating an edible herb and fruit basket to to offbeat ideas like scheduling a joint blood donation appointment for you and your valentine.

Now on with the show...

On tonight's show, Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy get the skinny about an innovative copyrighted series of movements that will help you lose inches without weights, equipment or jumping called T-Tapp. T-Tapp was developed by the off the charts with energy Teresa Tapp. She told us how she developed her amazing techniques while working with top models in Europe. I'm talking Claudia Schiffer and others. Remember models really don't care what they weigh as much as how they fit into their clothes. So Teresa's T-Tapp is very comprehensive in delivering fat loss, weight loss and inch loss as well as increasing your overall heath, energy and fitness. You don't have to be superfit to do her technique in fact she had Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy doing some of the exercises on the air. She was talking us through it and the Fat Guy almost did it. I wish we had a webcam so you could have seen it. Teresa has a book called "Fit and Fabulous in 15 Minutes as well as dvds and an information packed website. Please go to her website www.t-tapp.com and you will find all her stuff plus: contests, a ton of testimonials, amazing before and after pictures and a directory of certified T-Tapp trainers and a whole bunch more.

And you listeners were lucky enough to hear the brilliant Dr Judith Beck , author of "The Beck Diet Solution" which is rocketing up the bestseller lists. Dr Beck has been appearing everywhere in fact when I got home from the show I opened my Health magazine and there she was in there . Well Dr Beck is an authority in cognitive therapy and she uses those techniques to help people lose weight. She doesn't care as much about which diet you are using as long as you eat less calories she cares more about how you are going about the weight loss process. It is here where she is very helpful. Some of the weight loss tips she gave our listeners were: pre-plan your eating each day; only eat sitting down, remind yourself that hunger is never an emergency. She had many more tips but you'll have to listen to the show with a pencil and paper to get them all. Go to her website www.beckdietsolution.com for great downloads you can use today, information on her book "The Beck Diet Solution" and her new workbook that is coming out soon as well as info on Dr Judith Beck herself, there's also a blog. It's worth your time. Dr Fitness was blown away by how smart she was and how good and helpful her info was...so check it out.

And what would Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy show be without some candy...we love our Daily Candy and we were lucky enough to have Tiffany Davis from The Daily Candy in our studio with us this evening. Tiffany leads a life that everyone should be jealous of...I know I am. It is her job to discover the hippest places, the finest restaurants and the coolest clubs. It's not easy being her. Tonight Tiffany shared some places you could go in Atlanta o get an unconventional workout. We talked about kickball leagues, we talked about rock climbing centers we even talked about pole dancing and stiletto heel workouts. There were a lot of laughs and a lot of great info. If you are one of few remaining women who don't subscribe to Daily Candy then hop to it ... go to www.DailyCandy.com and sign yourself up. They have city centered issues in a lot of big cities, they have special kid issues and more.

Food journals are great ways to lose weight and the Fat Guy is always trying anything in order to lose those last 20 pounds. So take a peek into his food diary. You never know what he'll write. Somehow he can stay compliant to writing on Twitter but he can't fit in exercise each day. That's right, moments after he eats something the Fat Guy Twitters about it and you can follow him so that one day if you try real hard you too can look like the Fat Guy.

Amazingly the Fat Guy is being followed by over 3 dozen people who are interested in what he eats each day. Who would have thought? Anyone can follow the Fat Guy's eating exploits on Twitter. Food journals are great ways to lose weight and the Fat Guy is always trying anything in order to lose those last 20 pounds. So take a peek into his food diary. You never know what he'll write. Somehow he can stay compliant to writing on Twitter but he can't fit in exercise each day. That's right, moments after he eats something the Fat Guy Twitters about it and you can follow him so that one day if you try real hard you too can look like the Fat Guy.
