In your search for weigh loss information, in addition to Fat Guy Radio, be sure to check out Lose Weight Guru. On the site you’ll see reviews of diets, posts discussing the latest trends in dieting and weight loss, exercises for weight loss, healthy recipes, weight loss tips and a mish mash of other weight loss related topics.

The diet review section includes the #1 pick from Consumer Reports, the Bob Greene Best Life Diet, and the ever popular Weight Watchers. The writers give you a good overview of each of the diets and hit the main points that differentiate them from the other diets. I particularly liked the review of the Maker’s Diet. I read this book a couple years ago and liked their take on the book.

There are also plenty of post about dieting trends and news about weight loss. The guide to whether to get a personal trainer was interesting, as well as the article on overweight children. There is some great no-nonsense advice in each and every article.

The exercise posts, particular the one about not setting foot in the gym, outline some great ways to add exercise to your weight loss effort. There was also a nice article on the other benefits of exercise besides weight loss; here are a couple:

5. You will sleep better. Exercise helps the body burn energy which will leave you feeling tired and sleepy at night. And you are more likely to stay in a deep sleep when your body is recovering from exercise.

6. Exercise can relive stress. Going for a run or swim after a hard days work can be a huge stress relief.

7. Improve the strength of your immune system.

The recipes look great, I haven’t made any of them, but they look great. If you eat food similar to what is outlined in the Recipe posts, you can’t go wrong. Also, there are tips about what types of food can help you lose weight, what types of foods to avoid and things you can do to decrease cravings and jump start your weight loss.

If I had anything negative to say about the site I’d have to say the gratuitious use of Adsense distracts and the anonymity of the writer. I like to know about the person that’s blogging.

But, check out Lose Weight Guru for yourself and let me know on the comments on the blog.

Peace,
Russ
