![]() On tonight's show Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy get the skinny about Tips and Tricks for Hungry Chicks from the one and only Hungry Girl herself Lisa Lillien. Lisa shared her favorite snacks from 2007 including Breyers Fat Free Double Churn ice cream that will set you back a skinny 90 calories fro a 1/2 cup serving. She also loves Lesser Evil's Krinkle Sticks and the Corn Muffins from Vitalicious. She talked about her upcoming Hungry Girl Cookbook that features 165 recipes and survival tips. She gave our listeners her top tip to help you stick with your New Years Resolution in 2008. She said that you should try to live by the 80-20 rule. Which means to eat good 80% of the time and to have some fun the rest of the time. Remember tomorrow is another day. And don't set unrealistic goals they just set you up to fail. Use her daily email newsletter as your inspiration to stay on track in 2008. Subscribe for free at www.hungry-girl.com She also talked about Project Angel Food an organization she is involved with to feed the needy. Check it out at www.angelfood.org We also had on Harrison Forbes the co-host of Pet Talk. The nation's best pet show on radio. Harrison shared his best dog training tips including his suggestion to use a prong collar when training your dog. He also chimed in on the recent tiger attack at the San Francisco Zoo and how he recently appeared on the Larry King Show to discuss it. He also said that a lot of bad dog behaviors like digging or chewing can be traced to your dogs frustration. And you might be able to cure the dog by exercising your dog. Remember when you do exercise your dog do it at dog speed not Fat Guy speed. Harrison talked about his upcoming project he is working on with James Gandolfini and his upcoming book. For more info on everything he is up to be sure to check out his website www.harrisonforbes.com We led off the show with womens health journalist Karen Bridson author of the book Secrets of Skinny Chicks. Karen interviewed 25 skinny women to learn exactly how they got in shape. She purposely chose women who were not naturally skinny to see what they did and didn't do to achieve their weight loss goal. It seems that in order to lose weight you must be very mindful of your eating and to exercise a lot more than you think is enough. Her book also touches on the dangers of overdoing it. She shares a very personal story of a friend of hers who suffered from an eating disorder. Please check out her book at Amazon, Barnes and noble and other bookstores. And we ended the show and 2007 with a great interview with one of our BFF's Jennifer Nicole Lee. JNL shared some of the exciting things she has planned in 2008. She has got calendars, ebooks, dvds and lots and lots of photos on her website www.jennifernicolelee.com. Dr Fitness chimed in with his best fitness tips for 2007. But I forgot to write them down so you'll have to listen to get them. Amazingly the Fat Guy is being followed by close to 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.

PeopleJam is a community for people who want to learn, live, earn, believe and play.

Robert said living a balanced life is tricky but living a blended life is more manageable. Especially with the PeopleJam community helping you every step of the way. Check out their website and sign up for FREE at www.peoplejam.com Our first guest was one of New Jersey's favorite personal trainers and authors...Kevin Valuzzi. His new book "Stop The Fitness Confusion" taps into the wisdom of over 50 top trainers and fitness experts to get their best fitness tips. Kevin says that a suprisingly consistent methodology came up amongst all the trainers. A circuit-style interval training is highly recommended for people who are crunched for time and are looking to burn more calories faster.

Tina talked about the importance of training outdoors in order to get one with nature and use the surroundings around you to get a wickedly effective workout. In San Francisco she does outdoor classes with her clients first thing in the morning. They might be doing pull ups on a tree branch one minute and stretching on a parking meter the next. Each workout is different and each is sure to kick your butt. Tina stressed that exercising outdoors is an almost spiritual experience. She says she has had clients get overcome with emotions as they workout. Picture yourself at the crack of dawn, surrounded by the glow of the rising sun, running through the woods with the skyline of San Francisco in front of you as sweat is pouring off your body. Pretty cool huh? For more information about Tina, her only accredited Outdoor Training classes and her radio show please go the her website www.outdoorfitness.com Dr Fitness chimed in with his weight loss tips.
