Do You Want Joy Bauer to Help You Lose Weight?

One of the brands/magazines I work with at my day j-o-b is Woman’s Day. They’re doing a weight loss project with Joy Bauer, and I thought some of you might be interested in it. Below are the details, and go to the website if you want more information on applying:

Need help losing weight? Woman’s Day is partnering with Joy Bauer, America’s favorite nutritionist and TODAY Show contributor, for a special weight loss project. If you’re chosen, you’ll be given a diet plan to follow and get personalized counseling to help you reach your goal. You’ll also share your journey with Woman’s Day readers and blog about it regularly on womansday.com from August 2010 through January 2011.

Two things:

1. Chobani Low-Fat Pineapple Yogurt? AMAZING. It is so rich and creamy, it tastes like pudding (UM, Swiss Miss Vanilla? Anyone remember that stuff? YUM.) — but better for you. Add berries and granola and it’s heaven in your mouth.

2. I forgot to post about my workout. I did 15 minutes of intervals (30 seconds running at 6.0, 45 seconds walking at 3.0) on the treadmill at a 10% incline. Joel said that it’s the intensity, not the duration that’s important in weight loss. Plus, if you usually do a half hour workout, this changes it up. And our bodies need new challenges to keep burning fat. Try it! It’s harder than it sounds. And if it’s not, up the speed or the incline.
