On tonight's show, Doctor Fitness and the Fat Guy get the skinny about weight loss and fitness from the godfather of fitness Jack Lalanne. Jack Lalanne gives a rare interview where he discusses the state of America's obesity problem and what he thinks are the solutions to this crisis. He shares weight loss tips and gives a glimpse into his daily exercise regimen. Even as he passes the 90 year mark Jack still exercises over an hour a day seven days a week. This was truly an unforgettable show. And as a bonus Jack sings a song to close out his segment.

We also got to spend time with another legend in health and wellness Dr. Jonny Bowden. Jonny has written several bestselling books including: "Living the Low Carb Life" and "Choosing the Diet That's Right For You from Atkins to Zone". He also is a former winner of the consumer choice award for best nutrition book. When it comes to food and eating healthy Jonny Bowden is in a league of his own. He came on to talk about his new book "The 150 Healthiest Foods on the Planet" Some of these foods are obvious but you'll be pleasantly surprised by a few of them. For more information about healthy food please go to Jonny's website www.jonnybowden.com

The Doctor had to bring some great eating tips because of the quality of the guests we had on and he did. So we had another installment of ...Dr Fitness' "Things You Can Do Today" To Lose Weight Tomorrow. Here are a few of Dr. Fitness' secrets about how to eat healthy when you go out to eat...Number 1, always get half of your food to go. Do this before they even bring it out to the table. Restaurant portions are so large you can get half to go and not even notice it. Number 2, if you are going to get a dessert just get one and share that around the table. And Number 3, start eating the low calorie healthy foods first and slowly work your way to the meats and starches. Hopefully you'll get full before you get to those higher calorie foods and stop eating. There were a couple more tips from Dr. Fitness, but you'll have to listen to the podcast or go to his blog to get the rest.

The Doctor had his fitness tips again. So we had another installment of ...Dr Fitness' "Things You Can Do Today" To Lose Weight Tomorrow. Here are a few of Dr. Fitness' secrets about how to start your fitness program...Number 1, consult your doctor before beginning any fitness program. Number 2, find a coach to teach you the proper form before you begin any strength training. Bad form leads to injuries which leads to quitting. And we don't want you to do that. And Number 3, start slowly. Do not go from not exercising to training like Lance Armstrong. Slow and steady wins the race. Remember you are going to be active for a lifetime go slow and ease your way into it. There were a couple more tips 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 erasing stress from your life from the Stress Eraser's Director of Clinical Research Fred Muench. Fred talked about the dangers of stress and gave some good tips on how breathing properly can help you relax. He shared lots of good information about the Stress Eraser (which is like a mini bio-feedback machine) and how it can help you coordinate your breathing with your heartbeat which helps you relax.

We also got to spend some quality time with Sarah Bellum, head trainer and professional Pillow Fighter. (I don't think that is her real name..it might have been because she seemed pretty smart) Sarah represents the Pillow Fight League. The Pillow Fight League has been sweeping Canada and has recently made it's way into the United States. Recently the league got banned from competing in New York because they violated a law that prohibits the use of weapons at various venues. The Fighters pillows were considered weapons. Give me a break. Sarah shared some of the pillow fighter techniques and training tips. She said that fighters do get hurt and this is not like the kind of pillow fights you had when you were a kid. To me the pillow fight league sounds like a cross between roller derby and the glamorous girls of wrestling. Check them out for yourself at their website www.gopfl.com They have dvds, t-shirts, and even pillow cases for sale there. You can also check out where they are competing next.

On tonight's show, Doctor Fitness and the Fat Guy get the skinny about cheerleading and dance fitness from the folks at Cheeracise. 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.

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.

The Doctor is really getting into his fitness tips now. He has stopped recycling old weight loss tips and is somehow coming up with new helpful weight control material. So here is another installment of ...Dr Fitness' "Things You Can Do Today" To Lose Weight Tomorrow. Here are a few of Dr. Fitness' secrets...Number 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. Number 2, When you are eating...concentrate on your food, bite by bite. Eating slowly and chewing deliberately will help you feel full faster. And Number 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 from Dr. Fitness, but you'll have to listen to the podcast or go to his blog to get the rest.
