Dr. Nick Riviera Diet

HI EVERY-BODY
Today's Diet advice is from this man:

He's was a medical doctor based in Springfield, MA and his name was Dr. Nick Riviera. Dr. Riviera received his medical degree from the prestigious Hollywood Upstairs Medical College (HUMC) in Costa Rica (Source: Wikipedia). He once had a conversation with one of Springfield's citizens, Marge Simpson, and it went something like this:

Dr. Nick Riviera: "With my new diet, you can eat as much as you want, any time you want."
Marge Simpson: "And you'll lose weight?"
Dr. Nick Riviera: "You might! It's a free country!"

So, folks, take it from a real medical professional, not those phony personal trainers and self-proclaimed health & fitness gurus. Feel free eat anything you want, as much as you want, and whenever you want. There is still a good chance that you WILL lose weight.

BYE EVERY-BODY

48 Hours and 211 miles.... 30+ miles shy of the world record. Oh well... As a point of reference, it takes me about 4-6 weeks to run 211 miles.

Dean Karnazes, the Ultramarathon man ...........Will be attempting to earn yet another place in the Guinness Book of World records by covering the most amount of miles run on the treadmill in 48 consecutive hours. In order to achieve this, he will need to cover 240.11 miles in 48 consecutive hours. After 10 hours, Dean had already covered 70 miles and looks to be on track to his goal.

Here he is in WABC studios in New York City... Check out the guy watching while having a death stick, I mean a cigarette......
