Save Gas Burn Fat is a website that is dedicated to helping people to lose weight, save money, and go green in the process.
The United States of America is the greatest nation in the world, but we’ve got problems: we are the fattest nation in the world; we spend money on gas like we're drunken sailors; and we are slowly but surely killing the planet.
We spend millions upon millions of dollars trying to fix these problems. Our weight with fad diets, "miracle" drugs and supplements, expensive exercise routines, and even drastic measures like gastric bypass surgery. For our dependency on foreign (and domestic) oil, we’ve been looking to Hybrid cars, solar panels, and wind energy, hoping also that we can slow down or even stop the destruction of our planet. While these are helpful and productive things to do, there’s something else we can do that will address all three of these problems that we face, and it’s something so simple we've been doing it already now since long before any of these problems existed. It's not the only answer, but it's a terrific start – and that's riding a bike!
I don’t claim to know everything there is to know about cycling, which is odd because it’s a fairly simple sport. What I do have to offer is 26 years of experience riding and commuting. Since I document my daily rides, I can say with certainty that I ride on average 13,000 miles per year, some years logging as many as 17,000.
With well over one quarter of a million miles of asphalt underneath my tires, I’ve had it all happen to me more than once. And on this website, it’s my intent to share that experience with anybody who wants to lose weight, get fit, have fun, and just maybe help save the planet along the way.
As a fitness trainer since 1985, with a degree in Physical Education from Tulane University, I’ve worked with Hollywood’s elite for the past 19 years. I will offer simple solutions for losing weight, and diets and experience that will power your ride and help propel you to "Save Gas and Burn Fat!"

I'm Just Sayin'. . .
There's a simple truth about losing weight that very few diet plans will tell you. And that is... you can lose weight on pretty much ANY diet you choose, if you follow it and don't "cheat." The simple math of the matter is that as long as you take in fewer calories per day than you expend, you will lose weight. . You could eat nothing but cookies and still lose weight, if the total number of calories in the amount you ate equaled less than what you burned up that day just getting around. The problem is... that kind of diet is
unsustainable. After a while you would a) suffer from malnutrition, and b) start desperately craving other types of foods, and start eating everything in sight, gaining back all the weight you had lost, and probably more.

How It Works!
Losing weight and staying fit isn't rocket science. There are literally hundreds of weight loss plans out there. But really -- it's all about common sense, and a little bit of work. I'm going to provide the common sense. You have to provide the work. But I'm going to make it as easy as possible. Every week, I'm going to post several easy-to-follow weight loss tips. All I want you to do is to follow them, and then let me know how you're doing.
