Quick recap of Mighty Mom’s knee surgery and Dr Fitness new run in with a pooch. But on to more important things – one of our favorite guests of all time came on this evening…

Our guest today was Lisa Lillien author of the #1 New York Times bestselling Hungry Girl cookbooks and email newsletter. Lisa has a new book out titled Hungry Girl 200 Under 200 Just Desserts! That’s right a whole cookbook that teaches you how to make your favorite desserts all under 200 calories.

Lisa said her 2 favorite desserts from the book are the Whoopie Pie and the Apple Pie Cone. She also shared some secrets to making cake pops – pumpkin and club soda. She also shared some behind the scenes stories from all her times making food on a talk show like Today, Dr Oz and Steve Harvey. And you’ll never guess who is a secret Hungry Girl superfan…George Clooney. What?

Lisa also mentioned that she is creating an actual HungryLand in her new digs – complete with a basketball court sporting the always smiling Hungry Girl logo. If you have the opportunity to see Lisa at a book signing then we highly recommend you go and meet her in person. She will shower you with goodies and she really appreciates all her fans. She’ll take the time to really personalize the experience. We love her.

Workout were designed by certified strength and conditioning specialist Leah Sarago, these workouts provide a long and lean physique by integrating traditional body-weight resistance exercises with muscle-elongating techniques.

Complete the routine with exercises to support the spine and back, along with deep stretches for flexibility. If you want strong abs and a bikini-ready belly, this incredible core workout is for you!

UPPER BODY — Strengthen, sculpt, and define your upper body with this dynamic, results-oriented workout. Start with mat exercises for the arms and core, then grab a pair of light hand weights for some dance-inspired movements.

LOWER BODY — Get the dancer’s legs you’ve always wanted with this calorie-torching barre workout. The muscle-sculpting moves lengthen the thighs, lift the backside, and sculpt the backs of the legs for sleek definition and a slim figure. After the workout, relax into a 13-minute yoga- and dance-centered stretch.
