Q: How often do you workout?
Dr. McGahee: I workout 3-4 times a week, its tough because of my
schedule but it is important to me, so I find the time.
Q: You train with Jade Alexis, what is that like?
Dr. McGahee: Oh boy! That’s loaded question! Training with Jade its
lots of fun, competitive, challenging and she takes my exercise to another
level.
Q: Eating well goes hand in hand with exercise, do you have a healthy
diet?
Dr. McGahee: I didn’t always eat well. I use to eat lots of
fast food because I was on the run. But now I am very disciplined with what I
eat.
Q: That’s hard for a lot of people to do especially when fast
food is readily available! Don’t you agree?
Dr. McGahee: It is hard for most people. I love food shopping
its my therapy!
Q: What do you buy?
Dr. McGahee: Lots of fruits and veggies. Beans are my favorite,
breakfast, lunch and dinner!
Q: Beans for breakfast?!?
Dr. McGahee: Yes! An egg white omelet with beans and salsa and a
little low fat Swiss cheese! It’s so good and healthy.
Q: Recommended veggies a day?
Dr. McGahee: At least 4 servings.
Q: Eating healthy seems to be important, but what about
sleep! How many hours of sleep do we need each night?
Dr. McGahee: 7-8 hours
Q: Thoughts on obesity?
Dr. McGahee: It’s a growing problem especially in children
Q: Really, I guess it has a lot to do with what parents are feeding
their kids?
Dr. McGahee: Yes, and most people don’t cook at home they eat out. We need
to start teaching kids at an early age to eat their veggies and to get enough
exercise rather than sit at home playing Xbox.
