0:00.0	Are you tired of falling off the proverbial fitness bandwagon?
0:04.0	Join us as we share simple, realistic and above all, achievable weight loss advice,
0:09.0	based on evidence gathered from helping hundreds of people look, feel, move and perform better.
0:15.0	You don't need to starve yourself or hop on the latest fitness craze.
0:18.0	We'll show you how the smallest change can give you the
0:21.7	largest impact. It's now time for the Food for Fitness podcast with me, your host, Scott Bapty.
0:31.5	You are listening to episode 117 and this week my guest is Dr James Krieger. Now, James is one of these industry legends

1:35.8	kickstart your knee, get it going again, and generally we'll just cover all things neat.
