Hi everyone this is Monica Reinagle the nutrition diva here with your quick and dirty

tips for eating well and feeling fabulous and I have a special guest today.

Tom Holland is here to talk about nutrition, fitness, and motivation.

Tom's an internationally known exercise physiologist and author of numerous books and fitness DVDs.

Now, food and nutrition is the primary focus of this podcast,

but I get so many questions from you about various aspects of fitness,

which in a perfect world goes hand in hand with a healthy diet.

So I thought I would take advantage of Tom's expertise by running a few of your most frequently

asked questions by him.

And now let's get on with our show.

Tom, thanks so much for joining me.

Thanks for having me.

Now in addition to all your other projects,

you're also a fitness advisor with Bowflex, the in-home gym equipment from Nautilus.

And you're here in New York with them this week for an event that focused in part on motivation

on what moves people to get and stay fit?

I know a lot of us are really motivated when we start a new diet or exercise program,

but then after a couple of weeks, we start to lose the scent.

So what have you found to be the best ways to keep your

motivation strong after that first burst of commitment fades?

Such a great question and such a common one and I always say Monica that we all know what to do it's just doing it that is very difficult right and it's different for everybody and that's why the theme of this week for us at Nautilus was what moves you.

And I think the emphasis is on you.
