On today’s show Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy had on CNNHealth.com diet and fitness expert Dr Melina Jampolis. Dr Melina is also the chief medical officer of SmartNow.com as well. Dr Melina shared some tips to be heart healthy like
don’t lose weight then turn around and gain the weight right back. This kind of up and down dieting is bad for you over time. She explained that losing weight lowers your risk of heart disease and lots of other diseases as well. She suggested eating oatmeal in the mornings as a healthy breakfast. She feels that people need support in order to stay compliant to their exercise and weight loss programs. And she begrudgingly agreed with the Fat Guy’s theory that you diet for weight loss and exercise for health. She added that exercise helps with weight maintenance once you lose weight. She also gave us some weight loss tips from her last book The No Time To Lose Diet, which is now in paperback. She also told us about her new Dr Melina Bar and where to get them.
