Before I get into the show notes I'd like to give a very special shout out to Bertha from Georgia she is this week's winner of a great exercise DVD. She sent in a very kind email saying how much she has enjoyed the show  Great job Bertha, keep up the good work and anyone else who wants to win a free exercise dvd please blog about us and email us your weight loss story - it could be a plateau you're trying to break through where Dr Fitness can help or it can be a success story. Either way you can win!

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.

Tonight it was Common Exercise Mistakes. Here are a few of Dr. Fitness' tips on how to avoid these common exercise mistakes. Number 1, failure to set goals - don't just show up at the gym and try to wing a workout - have a plan. Number 2, improper technique, pay close attention to your form when you are strength training. this will give you better results, faster and help you avoid getting hurt. And Number 3, mix things up, a lot of people do the same routine over and over for weeks at a time - variety is the spice of life - your body gets used to the same routine so you have to challenge it differently in order to get good results. Dr Fitness had a few more tips and he gave lots more detail in these tips but you'll have to listen to get them.

On tonight's show, Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy get the skinny about how you can lose boatloads of weight without gastric bypass surgery or crazy fad diets. Imagine that! First we had on Gary Marino who lost 150 pounds through the amazing eat less and exercise more diet and later on the show we had Lisa Delaney, Health magazine editor who went from 185 pounds to a size two and kept it off for nearly 20 years using similar methods.

Lisa, author of "Secrets of a Former Fat Girl" shared lots of weight loss tips from her inspiring memoir tonight. She encouraged overweight women to keep their weight loss attempt a secret because of the people who will try and undermine you. A lot of time your family members will try and sabotage you by teasing you or overly scrutinizing your food choices so you have got to be ready for that. She also told our listeners what it was like when she hit rock bottom and what she did to transform herself from a fat girl to an avid marathon runner. You can get more information about Lisa, her book and her great blog at www.formerfatgirl.com

Gary Marino is on a mission to help fight obesity. He has gone from being a 397 pound hopeless food addict to a nearly svelte 240 pound healthy activist for change. Gary went on a Million Calorie March down the Eastern Seaboard in an effort to bring attention to the obesity crisis that is gripping America (especially our youth). He has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for this cause and has helped inspire thousands of people to lose weight. Gary's book "Big & Tall Chronicles: Misadventures of a Lifelong Food Addict" tells his uplifting story in a humorous and poignant way. And soon you'll be able to watch the movie version of the book "Million Calorie March: The Movie" will be released later this year at the Boston Film Festival. For more information on Gary and all the things he's up to check out his website www.millioncaloriemarch.com

Tonight we also had on two of the biggest bloggers out there... Sweet Susi May from FitSugar and Peter Ha from CrunchGear. You have to listen to their segments with a paper and pencil handy because they were throwing out great gadgets, gear and websites left and right.

Susi in her regular FitSugar segment to our show had great fashion gear tips for the ladies. Did you know that there is a new bikini for women that has a drawstring so you can be active at the beach without any fears of losing your bottoms? I did not know that but Susi did. She also had some tips about the dangers of soda and a new water bottle that holds two beverages in one bottle. Amazing. Ladies, if you are not going to FitSugar everyday you are seriously missing out. they are blogging like 20 times a day with all the latest recipes, fitness gear, celebrity news, exercise tips. FitSugar and all the Sugar blogs should be on your must read list each day. Check them out at www.FitSugar.com

And guys for the first time in Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy history we had on someone from CrunchGear, part of Michael Arrington's empire. CrunchGear doesn't always have fitness gear there (that's why the Fat Guy likes it) but it is the place where the Fat Guy finds out about all the latest gadgets and computer stuff. So if you want to know how the new iPhone is performing or a what is the latest must have computer accessory CrunchGear is the place to look. I get it in my inbox everyday. So tonight Peter Ha, updated us on what is the latest gadgets for marathon training and getting more enjoyment out of outdoor activities. There is a new watch that counts calories, a new accessory for the Wii and a bunch more stuff that you should know about. To learn more about CrunchGear and subscribe to their blog go to www.CrunchGear.com  

The Doctor didn't have any tips tonight because we ran out of time but he did get fired up about the media created bottled water controversy regarding Aquafina and Dasani actually being tap water. You have got to hear him rant about that.

Kathie Larkin was in the studio and she gave an inspiring story about how she started running.And she ran all the way to her boyfriend Tom's house who lives almost a mile away from her.
