Blueberries, strawberries, and broccoli are all high in vitamins.

Work out to music that's fun for you. I like a good beat; something from Jay-Z or Eminem.

Asparagus is the best at de-bloating, since it helps flush out the bad stuff.

I find often people wait to order until I order. And then I love upsetting them. Sometimes I'll order a cheeseburger and macaroni and cheese.

I befriend most of my clients, and I like to go out with them. I like to socialize with them: They're interesting.

The program for me, 'The Ultimate New York Body Plan,' is about realizing the best you and really loving the body you create.

The point of workouts are no longer to do double 60-minute sessions or go to classes five times a week. You don't want to burn out and beat your body up.

For me, the way I go about training all of my clients is by using short bursts of interval training - it's the most effective for burning calories as well as for cardiovascular health and making you stronger.

If you take care of your body, it will take care of you.

Being pregnant is not license to forget all the rules that you abide by when you're not pregnant. Moving your body, getting enough sleep, staying hydrated, and eating proper foods throughout the day are even more important when you're pregnant.

If you do the treadmill or elliptical all the time, try adding the rowing machine or stair climber, maybe get a new bicycle. You want to keep it fresh.

I have both my daughters on gluten-free diets, and you can see the difference. They are only four years old, and it definitely changes their mood. You can see that for sure.

Lunch is the meal where you put carbs in, such as lentils and beans.

Combining proteins like egg whites and oatmeal with berries is the best and most important food of the day. The mix will help energize you. And you should have it in the first 30 minutes of rolling out of bed.

We live in a society where healthy choices aren't usually the most popular choices.

Move with them, be active with them - whether it's swimming or scooting or bicycling or playing soccer. Engage your child.

As parents, we have a responsibility to teach our family and our children everything they need to know about good health and eating and movement, and just an everyday healthy life.

If motivation is an issue, I would try to get out of your house to work out, not just go into the basement.

People tend to lean on cardio machine handles, and their posture begins to suffer.

If you go on a calorie-reduced diet without increasing your level of exercise, at a certain point, your body will lose a little weight and then plateau. You need to trick your body to burn more fuel than you're ingesting so you can continue to lose weight.

It's impractical to assume people aren't going to eat out or eat late or even have pizza occasionally. And all that's fine as long as you work out, even just for 10 minutes a day.

I think that we all plateau, from fitness experts to regular folks at every fitness level. What that means is we need to change our exercise routine, food, and attitude.

Ideally, we should be controlling what we eat by cooking for ourselves.

Women often use weights that are too heavy. I like to stay in the 3- to 15-pound range. If you're more fitness-experienced, use weights in the 8- to 10-pound range. If you're a beginner, start in the 3-pound range.
