Weight loss author John Barrett Hawkins new book Penitentiary Fitness: the Amazing Weight Loss Formula is based on research studies that were conducted of the world's top universities and medical schools. Over a 10-year period Hawkins compiled and studied hundreds of published studies on the subject of weight loss, and began to identify several common themes. One medical school would discover that a particular food, nutritional supplement, or type of exercise would produce dramatic results; then another research facility would analyze the same stimulus and confirm its effectiveness for weight loss. These findings inspired Hawkins to cross-reference and synthesized the information in the research studies. What emerged were 10 scientifically proven success secrets for weight loss that became the foundation of Hawkins' book.

The moment was filmed, though there's no word if it'll make the cut for her May 7th TV special. Here's hoping! Afterwards, Liza and her longtime brilliant musical collaborator and friend Billy Stritch made their way backstage and Stritch was kind enough to share his personal photos with BroadwayWorld.com.
