This week we had time for the tips segment of the show which is now called Dr Fitness' "Things You Can Do Today" To Choose The Right Athletic Shoe. Here are a few of Dr. Fitness' tips...Number 1, make sure you buy a shoe that is right for your foot type. Low arch, medium arch or high arch. Number 2, to determine what kind of arch you have do this...Wet the sole of your foot then step on a paper bag. If the visible print of the bottom of your foot looks like a foot then you have a low arch or flat feet. If the curve of your foot cuts all the way across the width of your foot then you have a high arch. And Number 3, for more information about choosing the right shoe for your foot check out the website www.apma.org.There was a lot more from Dr. Fitness, but you'll have to listen to the podcast or go to his blog to get the rest.

On tonight's show, Doctor Fitness and the Fat Guy get the skinny about fitting exercise in a tight schedule from the Queen of exercise dvds herself, Tamilee Webb from Buns of Steel fame. Tamilee talks about her new "Tight on Time" series of dvds as well as gives a whole bunch of insight into exercise, fitness and her own philosophy of what it means to look good. Her Tight on Time dvds break workouts down into 10 minute chunks so you can fit them in when you have the time to do so. You can do the entire program for an ultra-varied workout or just select the workout that fits your mood or schedule. Come on, everyone can find 10 minutes a day, right? Tamilee also shared some of the other things she's up to. Like her Hawaiian Workout Cruise that will happen this September. She's trying to get the "Body By Gilad" guy on the boat too. Imagine going on a cruise around Hawaii and working out with Tamilee Webb each day. How awesome would that be? Our friend Kathie Larkin from Real Savvy Moms, can't wait to sign up.

Dr Fitness has volunteered to help Renee so we plan on having her back throughout the year to see if having the Doctor on her team helps her progress. Her blogs are a great place for other people struggling with weight loss to come and share what's working and what's not. You get a true sense of community there and Renee has been able to meet lots of wonderful people through her blogs. Dr Fitness says that writing a food journal is an important part of a weight loss program to keep you accountable and now with blogging you can chronicle your journey online and connect with people like Renee on her Fat Fighter Blog as well to get additional support.

This week we had time for the tips segment of the show which is now called Dr Fitness' "Things You Can Do Today" To Cut Calories. Here are a few of Dr. Fitness' tips...Number 1, cut out sugared sodas - instead go to half club soda with a splash of fruit juice. Number 2, lose the high calorie condiments like mayo and oil. And Number 3, make more rock star salads - throw in everything, nuts, turkey, berries, mushrooms, avocado, onions, peppers. Make that your meal. There was a lot more from Dr. Fitness, but you'll have to listen to the podcast or go to his blog to get the rest.
