Spirit after being at the critic ace choice and being warm and 7. It was so great being at the beach and being at the critics Choice Awards it was actually in a hangar. In santa monica. I never have been to an awards show and being up close and personal was great. One of the thi things that stict for me is some of the dresses. Its the kind of dress i could never pull off. That super structured. It because it was so unique. I dont know if you can really see it. It had this meshy structured back to it and front, you could kind of see through into a layer underneath. It was really really cool. She looked beautiful. Who else did you get to see . John travolta is probably the celebrity i was closest to at one point. Seeing him on the show he looked like a wax figure. He did look a little like did he have some work done recently . Who knows. I wonder. He looks even more orange i feel like, but he is a very striking person i feel like. Talk about somebody who makes an incredible come back. I mean he is like the come back kid i feel like. A lot of people think of pulp fiction when they think of his career coming back around. I didnt ask any celebrities except for one for a selfie. And it was hailey because i knew my kids would be freaking out. She was nominated for an oscar. Begin again was one of my favorite movies. What is her recent one she was in . The edge of 17. Did you sit with her . I sat with the director of her movie and her husband. Her boyfriend in the movie and other people. She, my kids i took the picture they were freaking out because okay. They were freaking out. But yeah. Now are you like cool mom again. Well. Thats hard to be when youre a teen. You were a cool mom before they are teens now youre cool mom again forgetting that picture. Heres one thing that was funny really quick. I was dressed i love the way you looked on the red carpet. I was dressed and up and my friend tina was like look at it this way when Ryan Reynolds Justin Timberlake show up nobody is going to care what you look like. Is it true you saw Ryan Reynolds my boyfriend . Did he ask about me . He did. He was like where is tiffany. I said she wasnt available so ryan jay took me. A lot of guys are on the short side. That was the most surprising thing about going to those ultrathin and the dresses they have to be like size 0, but the guys are thin too. I mean, in their little tuxedo, they look like little skinny little dolls with a bobblehead. Theyre waists are so small they look like little toy soldiers. Thanks for asking about it it was fun. Good to see you again being back beautiful pictures. Still ahead an important warning for parents about batteries. Were going to tell you what you need to know as you go shopping for your kids presents. This couple was in a serious car accident and almost died. Well share their story how they got off their pain meds and now living a happy healthy life. Through musicians who separately have played music across the country for as long as they can remember. We think they have the most fun so, when we said hey we need a Little Christmas music for our show, they stepped up to the plate. Thats right a little later in the show well chat with joy bach, kris crow and joe hite, but now here they are performing the christmas song. God guys look good. Hot. My goal was to finally get in shape. Not to be focusing on my moderate aque psoriasis. So i made a decision to talk to my dermatologist about humira. Humira works inside my body to target and help block a specific source of inflammation that contributes to my symptoms. In clinical trials, most adults taking humira were clear or almost clear, and many saw 75 and even 90 clearance in just 4 months. Humira can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. As have blood, liver, and nervous system problems, serious allergic reactions, and new or worsening heart failure. Before treatment, get tested for tb. Tell your doctor if youve been to areas where certain fungal infections are common, and if youve had tb, hepatitis b, are prone to infections, or have flulike symptoms or sores. Dont start humira if you have an infection. Ask about humira, the 1 prescribed biologic by dermatologists. Welcome back. She tried everything to get rid of the baby weight, but nothing worked until now. There is more to it than just losing the pounds why go through the effort if you cant keep the weight off. Genu nutrimost and 855burnfat. Shes here with example after example of people that lost the weight and kept it off. Great to see you jen. Nice to see you guys. Lets talk about nutrimost and 855burnfat. Its really a 21st century approach to losing weight. A lot of people are talking about it i feel like. People are losing a lot of weight doing it quickly and then you are helping them keep it off. Thats what the whole program is about. Were able to use this new identify what is it that is tricking your body into not letting you lose the weight. What is making it, there is people that exercise like crazy or go back and are eating nothing, but green things and cannot lose the weight. Were able to unlock the code and find out what is happening with your personal body to help you get into a fat burning state and get the weight off and best of all keep it off. So many people are saving up their money they are going to spend it on gym m trainers, prepackaged food whatever it may be. They are like im just going to get through the how holidays and then im going to do this. What do you say to them . I say dont waste your money. Not that exercise isnt great. If you have done that and its not working for you, some people it works for, but if it is not working for you specifically its time to come talk to us. Were able to give you the keys to get the weight off and then plan and be able to maintain and feel as good as possible. This program, is no shots, no hormones, no exercise, no prepackaged foods youre learning how to eat for your body, and then when you are able to get to the exercise portion your body is going to work so much better doing that. How do you respond to skeptics what do you say . I have to be honest i was one of the biggest skeptics when i started working with the program about two years ago. Being in the medical field i just knewha to be true, but i was at my highest whea weight and i refuso buy the next pant size up. So i did the program during the holidays two years ago i was able to lose the weight, keep it off and it triggered me to want to work with the company because it was the first thing that gave me hope of getting the weight off. I think there is so many . . Ancillary benefits when you get that weight off health wise you have talked about many times before. Lets talk about a couple people with carrie. This is someone who had been struggling with her weight for years and nothing seemed to work. Carrie was consider doing weight loss surgery. She had a husband who was very supportive of it and her getting healthier and she gave nutrimost a chance and 855burnfat a chance, and she was able to lose 46 pounds in just over a month. Wow. Thats fantastic. Shes one of our biggest supporters she comes in all the time. Look how great she looks. Exactly. There she ish y shes on one of our Facebook Support pages on there answering questions, supporting people. Once you have this change and experience it, it becomes something you want to share with other people. There pay it forward yeah. Lets talk about cindy and jeff.

Keely had a number of issues going on too. She was a mother of three, or is a mother of three, she was at about a size 14 and could not drop nymph anymore, of the baby weight. She ended up doing nutrimost and month. So many people make new years resolutions. This is the time of year people are starting to think about it, but cant stick with it. You go into it with expectationses youre going to be able to change your life. We still live busy lives. Were parents, cooks chauffeurs. We have so many things that are needed from us from all different. And this is something maintainable. Manageable. Once you figure out i can eat this food and ion issue, but if i eat this food it messes with my symptom i gain weight.

Can you go online at office in tosa where you can meet with jen or any of the great staff you have there. Great to see you jen. Happy holidays. A problem that has only been getting worse the last decade. What you need to know about the welcome back to the morning blend. Accidents are the leading cause of death and injury in kids 18 and younger. Research shows that education and awareness helps. Today a program that provides free Safety Resources to kids and families with an emphasis on preventing accidents. Were here with Bridget Clementi from Childrens Hospital of wisconsin to talk about the partnership they have with the kohls cares grow safe and healthy program. Great to see you. Good morning. We have great examples here on the table. With community health. There is a lot you are doing related to this and a lot that is free to our community as well. Most people know Childrens Hospital for the amazing Clinical Care we provide and we will still continue to do that and have dedication to that. But a lot of people dont realize we spend a lot of effort and energy and have a lot of programs and services to keep kids out of the hospital to make sure they are well, safe and healthy. Kohls cares grow safe and reminders. The kids need to be engaged. We provide some free Safety Resources that make a lot of sense. Fantastic. One example of the initialtives that you have going on related to wellness is the kohls cares grow safe and healthy program. You also have a website that goes with this right . Absolutely. Its geared for kids 6 to 14. A lot of people think of safety for the really young kids the dd while we have information on that dont forget about safety for older kids. Thats what they are out and about and sometimes by themselves. A lot of peer pressure. So there is resources information about teens and kids how to keep them safe in the house, on the go while they are on the road all different types of things. Its wonderful its just a click away too. What about the kohls cares grow safe and healthy the program as it relates to other things like Everybody Loves spriggy. Awesome little character. Selfthis little blue guy sitting on the table with us he gets into a bunch of trouble. The kids can really interact with the game. We really tried and its not to make safety that boring lecture we all tend to give to our kids, but really engage them in that learning in a way they can be advocates for their own safety as well as help us remember those important things. I love this spriggy goes to school. The new arm of your program. You also have a mobile tour where you make stops in different not so much on these cold winter days i got to tell you youre not going to find us out there. In the summer and in the fall and spring, were out stop by and engage with the mobile tour. The mobile event and we always have a great time. Talk about some of the things that you brought because they demonstrate important things not just in terms of ideas about gifts that help keep kids safe and well, but also dangers of things out there. During the holidays were always going to individuals usually be having young kids in the home. So to keep in mind the importance of who is coming to visit, how do you create a safe environment for that family to have a safe experience and you mentioned batteries. Batteries can be found all over the home. Video game remotes, if the kids are playing with the younger kids and they want to put that remote in their mouth which is not very common, beware those batteries can come out. Duct tape or any tape on top of those is a simple idea. Cards lihe sitting on the desk great fun, a lot of music and animation in the cards, but there is batteries in there and when that paper gets wet those batteries can easily come out and be swallowed by a young child. I didnt even think about that. A lot of people see these cards. I mean they are fun. . . [ music ] . . Not quite as good as the music we were hearing, but this poses a danger it has to do with the battery coming out. Around the house that light up and have batteries those are all at risk especially for Young Children putting that in their mouth and will ingest that battery. Thats a great reminder i didnt think about it either. What about some of the things on the table. I dont know if people think of helmets as a gift, but there are some great helmets out there. Whether you are thinking about giving any kind of a gift that requires any kind of protective gear, so a snow board, skis, roller blades all of those great fun things make sure youre giving the Protection Equipment as well. Helmets, pads, wrist guards those types of things. Even for the older kids we talked about older kids i know they are resistant. My kids as well, but, those helmets and pads are Super Critical to keeping them safe and healthy. Uhhuh. You brought examples of some of my favorite books paddington bear, the madeline book and the dolls. This helps support your program price, 5. And there is nothing that couldnt be safer than a book. A book is a great opportunity and the plush that kohls sells and the books really do help to fund our program and other programs across the community. Great gifts and great support for us. People can find them at kohls. There are other great examples too. Beware of batteries we talked about kids can put them in their mouth. Only covered a few so make sure to download the app visit the website there is a lot o keep safe over the holidays. Thats wonderful. I like your suggestion to keep in mind who is visiting you and make it a safe place for the people that you love who are going to be with you for the holidays. So kohls safe and healthy. Com, is the website to visit for all of these wonderful free resources as well as lists of things can you find to buy and things to be careful of too. Great to see you happy holidays. Have a happy and safe holiday. Thank you you too. Still ahead another song up next some simple life hacks to help prevent you from welcome back. Well winter arrived this week. Our arctic blast combined with all of the snow is the perfect storm for fall. Here to help us try to nyemeck back from Herzing University along with physical therapist dr. Kim dechant. It was only once i got older that i had to start thinking about falling. I used to think about why are old people so afraid of falling. Its like because you dont recover as quickly and often those injuries can be really, affect your quality of life. So lets talk about how people can prevent the kind of falls that o its interesting you bring up fear. Fear of falling is a really big indicater for possible falls. So if you are talking to someone about especially someone who is elderly and they are like im afraid of falling it is predictive of falls even if they dont have any weakens. Weakens. Is it because it makes us tense . Yes the anxious and stiffening posture. Its really important to talk to loved ones and say how are you is some things they can do to prevent falls. One life hack is now they make little ends for the canes so somebody made little ice picks they can put on the end of the canse. They make a great weapon. [laughter] you dont want to do that. The lines can be real long at walmart this time of the year. [laughter] so thats great. Of course,in everything, and, make sure you have a support system and then, i have to stick up for physical therapy, making sure that you continue to strengthen your legs and stay active because we tend to stay inside and not move around as much in the winter. As a physical therapist what types of injuries do you tend to see in the winter months . Well see just bumps and bruises, but ankle sprains, well see unfortunately, the people fall they could break a things and so we want to make sure we prevent those. And really its coming together and the support system and making sure that the driveway is shoveled that walkways are clear, that you have somebody going with you to places if you need that extra support. Uhhuh. I like that. What are the Students Learning in physical Therapy Program right now . So at our program, the physical Therapist Assistant Program they are just getting down with their technical courses going on clinicals and were learning about treating amputees, were treating the dizziness and falls and so, they are kind of coming to the end of their program and graduating in april. So its exciting. Absolutely. When does the Program Start for somebody interested in physical therapy, when does the Program Start for herzing . We have a lot starts coming up. Depending on transfer credit they could start in january, february, march, any of the upcoming months we just want to evaluate first. How long is the program for someone has no transfer credits it is 20 months. Quick. Yeah. I im thinking in baby terms. People who have a child know what that means. A little less than two years. A [laughter] exactly. 13 months. [laughter] 13 and a halfth and there is still room in the program then . Absolutely. And in terms of credits transferring, how does that process work . I think for a lot of students ystudentsfeel like you are aheae game if you can get some of note credits to transfer. You would just want to have your transcript sent or bring along some unofficials and see what is going to transfer. We want to get you the most transfer credits possible for what you have already done so it will save you time and money. The program . In physical therapy i love working with people. Helping them and with pediatrics all the way to geriatrics. Its really rewarding i love working with the students. I think physical therapy is a very empowering program because it is kind of helping yourself heal. Right now people can have their enrollment fee waived if you call for a campus visit. There are two numbers for the brookfield campus. 800 5960724. Thanks ladies. Thank you. Still ahead were going to show you how to make this decadent lobster mac and cheese.
