and your personal weight loss coach who will help you lose weight. Since most people can only stay on a diet for less than a month Cory decided to do something about it. His robot has a 3-5 minute conversation with you each day to ask about your day – what exercise you did, what you ate, how you’re feeling, etc. Autom then shares her thoughts about what you did and gives you friendly advice and encouragement. All the research shows that when you add this kind of interaction then people will stay compliant with their weight loss program much longer than if they are doing it on their own. In fact most people who participated in the testing did not want to give the robot back. We have been following Autom’s rise since 2007 and she is getting ready for the big time. Cory is in Hong Kong right now putting the finishing touches on her. Check out her video demonstration at his website 
Durham NC. Dr Musante is a renowned clinical psychologist who founded Structure House in 1977 and understands firsthand the struggle faced by overweight people. He has devoted his life to developing and teaching the principles of behavior modification. Today his internationally respected weight control program has helped more than 30,000 people change their attitudes, perceptions and lifestyles with diet, exercise and education. He is also the author of The Structure House Weight Loss Plan. He shared some great weight loss tips and explained all that is happening on his new website. You can now go online and create a 28 day action plan so you can develop your own personal plan to lose weight. He also shared his thoughts on the Biggest Loser TV show and programs like that that encourage extreme diet and exercise. He feels on the plus side they inspire people who felt that it was impossible to lose large amounts of weight. But he feels a big negative about those shows are that they downplay the dangers of extreme dieting and exercise and that they are not a good way to keep weight off for the long run.

shaped pieces of silverware turn eating into exercise. While all our listeners know Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy have been talking about weighted silverware since we started the show, Thomas actually went out and invented it. He is a doer and we are just dreamers. His mini barbell like fork and knife set weigh 1.5 pounds each and they will definitely slow down your eating, just like we have been saying for years. He also says that by slowing down your eating some people have found that their acid reflux has gotten better as well. This is a great gift for the speedy eaters and for someone who is just getting started on their diet or weight loss program. To learn more please go to his website 
Hype About Your Health. Robert is an award winning health journalist who teaches at Emory University’s Rollins School of Public Health. Some of the things he talked to us about were: the truth about how effective sun screen really is; which diet is the most effective over time; and how to tell if a health claim is true or hype. The tips he shared about understanding who to believe when it comes to health and science claims was very informative. It’s like they said in All The President’s Men – follow the money – who is paying for the study. Bottom line is that you can trust a study that followed thousands of humans more than a study that worked fro a handful of lab rats.
