By Bobby DeMuro

This week on the 7-Day Challenge Show Radio Exiles, we spoke with Dr. John Bartemus of Transcendent Lifestyle Center in Cornelius, North Carolina.

Dr. Bartemus laid down the law on all these suspicious weight loss and fitness gimmicks that are around nowadays, and gave us great guidelines for how to safely and effectively lose weight (and most importantly, keep it off!).

Not only that, but Dr. Bartemus (a proponent of keeping it simple, and basic living!) offered up a bunch of different tips – from fitness, to health, to nutrition and cooking – that can help you get fit, feel better, and lose weight without any sort of gimmicks or weird products.

Finally, he touched on a topic of huge importance; goal-setting. We talked about how to set reasonable, manageable goals that can be attained, but are neither too easy or too hard so as the person setting the goal gives up after a short period of time.

Tune in to hear what we challenge you to do this week!

Craig, Charlotte’s resident expert for all things restaurant, food and beverage related, spoke to us about various trends he’s seen recently in the restaurant industry, including the prevalence of local restaurants buying fresh ingredients from local vendors as opposed to buying in bulk nationally.

Craig also discussed some newer phenomenon in the restaurant industry, including how patrons are becoming more concerned and aware of nutritional content and calorie counts in their restaurant meals, and what various restaurants around town are doing to oblige patrons in regards to health information.

We also put Craig through the ringer, so to speak, and had him list out an impromptu “best of the best” category in various subjects, including best dinner, best main course, best healthy meal, best indulgence, and more. Craig offered us a bunch of great picks for various tastes and urges when you’re dining out around Charlotte!
