Now it can be told: Lady on the left? Russian model.

In this week’s first episode (come back on Thursday for more!), our host Jimmy introduces you to the perfectly awful team of Sat and Trans–aka The Bad Fat Brothers. Have you seen or heard them yet?

Um, isn’t the main ingredient in a “loaded baked potato” a potato…with tons of carbohydrates? Isn’t the main ingredient in a donut, errrrrr, the very carby dough?!?!?

How’s Hollywood doing when depicting the overweight and obese?

Hello and welcome to Episode 78 of the Internet’s hottest low-carb lifestyle-based podcast, “The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show with Jimmy Moore!”

Today, our host Jimmy looks at the two-sided issue of the depiction of obesity in Hollywood films. While it is a good thing (from our perspective) that movies are more comfortable having overweight protagonists, there is a decidedly dark side, too.

Oftentimes, these roles go to svelte actors in “fat suits.” Then, the way these characters are depicted on screen plays right in to asinine stereotypes (fat people are jolly, goofy, effeminate…take your pick). Put those two factors together, and it’s starting to look kinda like a fatty-fatty-two-by-four minstrel show.

Listen in to today’s show to hear Jimmy’s choices for who gets it right, and who’s wide of the mark–then let us know what YOU think by leaving a comment below!

LINKS MENTIONED IN EPISODE 78
- Eddie Murphy’s Norbit movie
- Ryan Reynolds’ Just Friends movie
- Danny DeVito’s Batman Returns movie

What are the side effects of the obesity drug Alli?

In a world gone mad, one man stands alone: Jimmy Moore wants YOU to know the truth about Alli–the new FDA-approved first over-the-counter weight loss pill that is like an overly-needy girlfriend who serves you ex-lax brownies.

Welcome to “The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show with Jimmy Moore!” In Episode 61 today, our host Jimmy explores why you just might not need a new drug that is already proven unsafe for people with any of a number of health conditions, demands you enter into a committed relationship for life to keep the weight off, is very expensive, and will virtually guarantee you’ll turn your tighty-whities into a rich shade of burnt umber.

What’s this drug in question? Alli, the OTC version of the prescription drug Xenical, aka orlistat. Be afraid, be very afraid. Remember, you don’t need to run out and buy a diamond ring and you don’t need to blame the dog for the effects of Alli–all you really need to do is keep on Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb!

Could a famous singer REALLY send a diet book flying off the shelves?

Welcome to yet another episode of the Internet’s premiere low-carb podcast–it’s “The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show with Jimmy Moore!”

Episode 55 is a very special occasion…Jimmy shares a book review he wrote about a year ago of what has now become a newly-repopularized diet book whose name alone will make us suspend our “clean language” advisory for a day.

That book is called “Skinny B*tch” and we only have Victoria Beckham (formerly known as Posh Spice from the Spice Girls) to blame for setting the superficial media “dietsphere” afire by being photographed with a copy of said book. Oh my, what a world we live in!

Listen in to today’s show as our host Jimmy gives the post-mortem of this sad and frustrating vegan-themed diet book that has zoomed up the sales charts of Amazon UK and Amazon.com.

Yo, Brad Pitt, I’ve got the perfect diet book for you to carry around with you!

LINKS MENTIONED IN EPISODE 55

- UK Daily Mail column about Victoria Beckham and Skinny Bitch
- Skinny Bitch sales at Amazon UK
