On\\ntonight\'s show Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy\\nget the skinny\\nabout how to stay fit, healthy and happy while you\'re going through a divorce. Debbie Nigro, founding partner of First Wives World told us all about the first website that helps women (and men) navigate the rough waters of divorce. She explained that she is not selling divorce but rather is helping people deal with a broken dream. Some of her tips were: be sure to take care of yourself. Exercising helps your self-esteem and as you go through this you will realize that you can handle anything. For more please go to their website www.firstwivesworld.com and get help with the three stages of divorce - contemplating, navigating and moving on. There you will find a supportive, inspiring community of people going through the same things that you are going through. It\'s a safe place filled with women sharing their stories , strategies, laughter and wisdom.

We also had on Regular contributor Nicci Micco, Senior Editor of Eating Well magazine. She shared with our listeners the results of the research on foods that affect your libido. This was a hot topic. Did you know some of the foods that are supposed to improve your sex drive are foods that resemble certain body parts. I don\'t know for sure why Nicci brought this topic up, but it have something to do with her current pregnant state. Who knows. Please go to the Eating well website at www.eatingwell.com and you will find lots of fun free email newsletters you can subscribe to as well as a great column on Serves Two where you can get some perfect Valentines Day meal recipes for you and your special someone.

We also had author, comedian and all around great guy Pete D\'Alessandro on to talk about his book The Unamerican Undiet. Pete chronicles his amazing story about how he was depressed and fed up with his weight, hit rock bottom then did something about it. He lost 40 pounds in about 3 months by eliminating some very American food ingredients from his diet like sugar and white flour from his diet along with fried foods, rich sauces and desserts. Then he supercharged his exercise workout with the help of a trainer and then like magic he lost the weight. He has kept it off for three or so years now without any drastic setbacks. Check out his book and read all about it. He writes in a funny personal way. You\'ll like it. Check it out on his website www.unamericanundiet.com

We closed the show with one of Dr Fitness\' and Kathie Larkin\'s favorite exercise book authors and experts Matt Bryzci. Matt is the Assistant Director of Campus Recreation/Fitness at Princeton University and he has written some of the most important books about strength training and exercise in the industry. Matt came on the show and tried to dispel some of the many myths about fitness like Does Strength Training Make You Bulky? He says No. Can you do sport specific strength training? No. Should women strength train differently than men? No. There was a lot more great stuff but you\'ll have to listen to get it. Check out Matt\'s books at any Barnes and Noble, on Amazon or straight from his publisher at www.cardinalpub.com

Dr Fitness also gave us his Fitness Tips on unconventional ways to use food. Number 1 Use pepper in your wash to whiten those whites. Number 2. Try some white vinegar to get those stubborn deodorant sweat stains from the pits of those shirts. Number 3\\nSlap some cold potato slices on those puffy eyes after a long night of partying. There were lots more tips but you have to\\nlisten tot get them.

Amazingly\\nthe Fat Guy is being followed by close to 3 dozen people who are interested in\\nwhat he eats each day. Who would have thought?\\xa0 Anyone can follow the\\nFat Guy\'s eating exploits on Twitter.\\xa0 Food\\njournals are great ways to lose weight and the Fat Guy is always trying\\nanything in order to lose those last 20 pounds. So take a peek\\ninto his\\nfood diary. You never know what he\'ll write. Somehow he can stay\\ncompliant to writing on Twitter but he can\'t fit in exercise each day.\\nThat\'s right, moments after he eats something the Fat Guy\\nTwitters about it and you can follow him so that one day if you try\\nreal hard you too can look like the Fat Guy.

Hot\\nmom, Kathie Larkin was back in the studio lending her thoughts and\\nlaughter. She even started a new segment where she asks Dr Fitness a\\ntough question about something in the news. Tonight she asked him what\\nhe thought about eating cloned meat. You know\\nKathie as the host of\\nReal\\nSavvy Moms.\\xa0 Real Savvy Moms is a great show for hot moms, fat moms,\\nall kinds of moms and is\\navailable on most PBS\' around the US and\\nonline and now on in Atlanta. So be sure to look out for that. Remember\\nKathie is\\none of the\\ntop\\xa0feet and legs model\'s out\\nthere... she is so hot she got to be a body double for Alyssa Milano\\nin that Veet commercial that is on TV 24 hours a day.

Remember\\nwe are now on every morning in Michigan. On radio station WKNW. They asked us to\\ncreate a Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy "Wellness Minute." So now a new\\nWellness Minute runs on that station each morning at around 7:40. Each Wellness Minute\\nfeatures the doctor and I going over 5 of his best tips on a given\\nwellness subject like: losing weight, getting in shape, living a\\nhealthy lifestyle, etc. We\'re working on ways to make those tips\\navailable to all our listeners. If you have a favorite radio station\\nthat you think would benefit from our Wellness Minutes send them an\\nemail telling them about it and who knows maybe you can hear us\\neveryday too.
