She's a Broad Broad

Yesterday I got exposed involuntarily to the Today Show's
coverage of the Golden Globe Awards.

Guess what? The Arquette Sisters looked terrible, Heroes
starts again on Monday--with a new catchphrase--and
Beyonce' and Jennifer Love Hewitt looked stunning.

So much for hard-hitting news.

But there was another Jennifer causing quite a stir. Jennifer
Hudson, the 25-year old singer from Chicago, who won the
award for Best Supporting Actress for her performance in
DreamGirls.

While discussing how lovely she looked in her dress, Matt
said, "I'll just say this plainly: she's a large woman."

To say the least.

But to her credit, she had to gain twenty pounds for the role
(I guess she was s'posed to be fat and sassy).

But we all know that it comes off a lot harder than it goes on.
And Jennifer had a trunk-full to begin with.

If you take in 500 fewer calories than you put out each day, you
can lose a pound in a week. But if you take in much less than
that, your body will think it's starving, and try to preserve its
energy in the most concentrated form: F-A-T

As cute as she may be, if Jennifer doesn't take off her movie
weight, that extra tissue will start causing another problem:
D-I-A-B-E-T-E-S (if it hasn't already).

If Jennifer were to ask me how to shed her 'stardom' (she'll
probably call right after the Today Show asks me for an
interview), here's what I'd tell her:

1. Congratulations!
2. Get moving. More oxygen burns more blubber.
3. Focus on Quality, not Quantity. It's true, you need to take in
fewer calories than your put out if you want to get rid of your
extra baggage. But better food naturally tends to have more
fiber, more nutrients, better fat ratios, etc.
4. Eat more fat.

Huh?

The key to burning your fat is to eat better fat. And the best
fat for that is Omega-3 long-chain fats found in fish oil.

And your fat cells cause inflammation; fish oil fights
inflammation. So more Omega-3 means more progress in a
shorter time.

And fish oil makes you more sensitive to insulin, so your blood
sugar stays where it should...which keeps the pounds off, too.

That way, you can be known for your Big Voice and Big Heart
(not just for being Big)

That's what I'd tell her. But you can use the advice, too.

Get moving. Get better food. And get Concentrated
Omega-3 Pharmaceutical-grade Fish Oil:
