I took a lot of notes and planned on summarizing it for the next newsletter (Fitness Facts from Phyllis)I send out for my clients. I'll probably post it as well.

They had a couple of people on who talked about their past failures and how their very health depends on serious weight loss and management. They had a nutritionist talk about how difficult it is for people to re-educate themselves and retrain their palates to enjoy and feel satisfied by different (healthier) foods than they have been eating. They apprached several people in a mall foodcourt and talked about their food choices and how they could be better. They also used a little food fact quiz to lead in after each commercial break. For example, if you add one 290-calorie donut into your diet each day, how many pounds would you gain in a year - 10, 20 or 30? The answer, frighteningly enough, was 30 lb. If that's not enough to send you fleeing from the Krispy Kremes, I don't know what is.
I wish I had been able to stay awake for the 2nd half; I crashed immediately after my post-workout shower - I don't even remember brushing my teeth (but I did). I hope it didn't end up as a plug for his food line.
So, I can't answer the survey for two reasons - didn't see the whole show, and there was some useful new stuff in the part I saw.
I'm going to check out the cost of a video of this program. The format was well-done, especially the live part from South Street Seaport at the end of the first half.
