Jimmy Moore Tells All About His Low-Carb Diet Weight Loss On Atlanta Radio Show

My interview with "Dr. Fitness And The Fat Guy" Sunday was so much fun

One of the unique opportunities that I have the pleasure of doing from time to time is appearing as a guest or feature in various media outlets. I've had the privilege of being interviewed in various places across the country on television, radio, blogs, newspapers, and the like so much now that I actually feel comfortable doing this format extemporaneously with no preparation whatsoever. When you live it, then it just flows out of you naturally.

So how about it, Maury Povich? Regis Philbin? Jay Leno? Oprah Winfrey? I've got a real story to tell and rest assured "Livin' La Vida Low-Carb Man" will certainly keep it entertaining for you, I can promise you that! :D

I guess people are intrigued by characters like Jimmy Moore who successfully lose half their weight and then keep it off for good. That's exactly why the Atlanta, GA-based "Dr. Fitness And The Fat Guy" radio show interviewed me on Sunday night. What's funny is I almost didn't make it on the show because I forgot to call in at the appointed time. OOPS! My Internet service provider was acting funny all day on Sunday (Charter was offline for nearly eight hours!) and my day was totally thrown off as a result.

So I was sitting in my living room around 7:15pm Sunday night right in the middle of watching the movie "The Devil Wears Prada" (wickedly funny film that is totally worth the price of admission just to see Meryl Streep in the lead role--GET THE DVD!) when my phone rings with a frantic person on the other end asking "Where are you?" After a couple of seconds of wondering who in the world was asking me that question, I bopped my head like the V-8 commercials and said, "Oh yeah, the interview. Sorry! I'm ready to go, though!"

Seconds later, I was on WGSR-AM in Atlanta LIVE with Dr. Adam Shafran (aka "Dr. Fitness") and Lee Kantor (aka "The Fat Guy"). They also had in the studio a model and actress who simply goes by the name of Kathie. She just finished work as body double for Alyssa Milano in a commercial and her feet and legs appear in a lot of advertisements you have seen. Check out her amazing reality show called "Real Savvy Moms" which she just completed filming last week in New York.

Listen NOW to the replay podcast of the entire March 25, 2007 episode of my appearance on "Dr. Fitness And The Fat Guy" by CLICKING HERE. My segment is the first one after their opening monologue. You'll hear them say they "hope" Jimmy Moore will be coming up after the break. That's because I freaked them out by not calling on time. Mea culpa!

What an awesome show it was and they made it engaging, entertaining, and a downright good time! These guys definitely know how to have fun and now have me longing to find some co-hosts to join me on my own podcast show now. Probably won't happen, but I guess you could call me the doctor fitness and former fat guy all rolled into one now. :D

The questions they hurled my way were quite intriguing and I was all-too-happy to share openly and honestly (as I always try to do!) about my experiences livin' la vida low-carb. In fact, at one point during the interview, they asked so many questions in a row that I completely forgot the question and asked, "Now what was the original question again?" Hee hee! I suppose that happens when you get three people all asking the guest to talk. Nevertheless, I did my best!

They describe my "Livin' La Vida Low-Carb" blog as "the best blog in the low-carb world...the one stop shop for all things low-carb." COOL! THANKS guys! And they couldn't get over my former fettish for Little Debbie snack cakes which I went into great detail explaining as well as my previous Coca-Cola addiction before my nearly 200-pound weight loss. Listen to the show and hear all the dirty secrets about my life as a 400+ pound slob of a man.

Atlanta-Based 'Dr. Fitness And The Fat Guy' Radio Show To Interview Jimmy Moore

Dr. Adam Shafran and Lee Kantor are "Dr. Fitness And The Fat Guy"

Have you heard about this great radio show/podcast that's happening down in Atlanta, Georgia called "Dr. Fitness And The Fat Guy" featuring hosts Dr. Adam Shafran and Lee Kantor? If not, then you really should see for yourself the outstanding work these two are doing to promote healthy living in a fun and exciting way. I've always tried to make weight loss and getting fit as engaging and entertaining as possible here at my blog and on my own podcast show, so I'm glad to see this same philosophy being implored by others.

I wanted to let you know about this show because they have invited me to be their special call-in guest to appear LIVE on the program on Sunday, March 25, 2007 at around 7:15pm EST on WGSR 710AM. If you live in or around the Atlanta metropolitan area, then I'd love to have you tune in to "Dr. Fitness And The Fat Guy" to hear me talk about the positive benefits of livin' la vida low-carb! WOO HOO!

While I do have quite a few readers who hail from the Atlanta area, I realize most of you do not. Not to fear, though, because through the magic of the World Wide Web, you will have access to the show LIVE as it is happening. All you need is iTunes on your computer and you'll be ready to go come 7:00pm EST on Sunday night. When you are ready to listen to WGSR in real time, just CLICK HERE and in seconds you will be listening (remember, don't click on that link until you are ready to tune into the show).

I'm looking forward to the 10-15 minute interview with "Dr. Fitness And The Fat Guy" to share my 180-pound low-carb weight loss success story and my subsequent book, blogs, and podcast show with them. I've listened to several of their past shows already and was struck by the incredible chemistry between Dr. Shafran and Kantor which is absolutely perfect for what they are doing to help people get interested in the subject of health and fitness--not an easy task to accomplish! But they pull it off quite nicely.

In addition to their awesome web site, be sure to take a look at their blog and even listen to previous shows so you can get an idea of what "Dr Fitness And The Fat Guy" is all about. Both are very opinionated and aren't afraid to tell you what they think--does that remind you of anyone? Hmm, I wonder. :D

Be sure to drop a quick e-mail to both Dr. Shafran and Lee for having me on their super show. It's nice to know there are STILL people in this world advocating a healthy lifestyle these days who aren't misinforming people about the low-carb nutritional approach by calling it a dangerous fad that is unhealthy. Their willingness to have Mr. "Livin' La Vida Low-Carb" Man Jimmy Moore appear on their show is proof "Dr. Fitness And The Fat Guy" don't buy into that nonsense. We should applaud leaders like these in health and fitness every chance we can get! Let's show 'em the love from the low-carb community, shall we? :)
