On
tonight's show Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy
learn how to stay motivated in order to lose weight and achieve all of your goals. Donna Krech, creator of the Donna Krech Connection shared her 7 reasons people lose their motivation and what they can do to get back on track. The number one reason was that people get distracted, they lose focus. And in order to stay focused you have to figure out your "Big Why" Why are you really trying to lose weight - she says it's probably not what you think. It's not to fit into your college clothes or get to your high school weight. You're going to have to dig deeper than that.

We also had on regular contributor and Senior Editor of Eating Well Magazine Nicci Micco. Nicci explained to us the difference between farm raised Atlantic salmon and wild salmon. She said that health-wise eating most fish and especially salmon is good for you. But from an environmental perspective eating wild salmon is probably the way to go. To learn more about this issue please go to Dr Fitness' favorite food magazine's website www.eatingwell.com Remember pick up this months Avocado issue at Whole Foods or  subscribe online.

We also had on Susan Bellone and Matt Jones. These two inspirational people have teamed up to help feed the hungry. Susan started Potatoes for Pounds where she has donated 10 pounds of potatoes for every pound she has lost. And she is encouraging others to follow her lead. Matt is a gallery owner who does events and encourages his patrons to donate potatoes and other food as their ticket into his events. He has been doing this for years and has donated hundreds of thousands of pounds of food to food banks.  These two are encouraging everyone to get involved start a challenge in your community. For more information go to their websites www.mashedpotatoes.org www.myspace.com/potatoesforpounds and their new www.paintdancing.com

Ellen Barrett also joined us to discuss her new exercise dvd project. Ellen has been called the country's best fitness instructor by Self magazine. She encourages women to Sweat Glamorously. She has targetted modern workouts for modern women. In additon to working with Hollywood's hottest stars like Christina Ricci, Ellen has carved out a huge following of exercise dvd lovers with an impressive library of her work. Check out her The Studio series:  Yogini Workout, Fat Burning Fusion and Slim Sculpt. For more about Ellen please go to her website www.ellenbarrett.com

And we closed the show with Pam Vetter, a celebrant from Los Angeles. For those not in the know a celebrant helps families heal with uplifting funerals. PAm has done celebrity funerals like Richard Pryor's but spends most of her time helping regular folks go out in a way that really celebrates their life instead of a typical sad preachy service from a religious leader who in some cases barely knows the departed. Funeral's don't have to be a buzz kill they can really be meaningful, fun and inspirational. Visit Pam online at www.thefunerallady.com or www.celebrantpam.com

No Dr Fitness Fitness Tips
and no Rachael the Intern's hot internet finds this week. 










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. Please go to www.twitter.com/fatguy

Hot
mom, Kathie Larkin was nowhere to be found. she's usually in the studio lending her thoughts and
laughter.  You know
Kathie as the host of
Real
Savvy Moms.  Real Savvy Moms is a great show for hot moms, fat moms,
all kinds of moms and is
available on most PBS' around the US and
online and now on in Atlanta. So be sure to look out for that. Remember
Kathie is
one of the
top feet and legs model's out
there... she is so hot she got to be a body double for Alyssa Milano
in that Veet commercial that is on TV 24 hours a day. Be sure
to check out Kathie's website www.getkathie.com. Also check out her hosting skills on www.RealSavvyMoms.com.

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 David Spade's
"Showbiz Show" on Comedy Central 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.
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!!!
