I came across this clip of one of the times of meeting Gilad in NYC. We had such fun laughing and filming together in Central Park! Grateful for this fun memory and everything he gave to the fitness world. His sense of humor was next level! #Gilad #BodiesInMotion

I’m so grateful to have had Gilad in my life, not just as a fitness mentor whose wisdom completely transformed my own weight loss journey, but as a friend. Over the years I was lucky enough to collaborate with him, featuring so much of his sage, no-nonsense advice in articles for Women Fitness Magazine and on my fbjfit . com blog. Today I wanted to share some of his pearls of wisdom from a feature I wrote about setting and achieving fitness goals. His words still motivate me every single day, and I hope they inspire you to keep your body in motion. 1. Change how you look at your health and what you think of in terms of fitness. With all the challenges and uncertainties that seem to face humanity these days, it is more important than ever for us to take good care of our most important and precious possession: our body, our vehicle in this life and our temple where our mind, spirit and soul reside. For this year, I’m renewing my commitment to this precious birthright gift, and I hope you will too! 2. As I approach the new year, my 70th birthday and my 40th year of hosting my Bodies in Motion fitness show, I remind myself of some of the guiding principles that I have shared with my viewers: for safe long-term results, choose consistency over intensity, always walk away from your workout with energy to spare and the more muscles you have relative to fat, the more energy you can produce. 3. When looking to make fitness resolutions for the upcoming year, remember that ‘Magical results’ consists of four elements: discipline, motivation, work and patience! Fitness is a journey, not a destination! 💪🏽 #bodiesinmotion #Gilad Photos by Hank Londoner courtesy of Gilad

Still processing this loss…Gilad came into my life and left an unforgettable mark. A huge part of my 100 lb. weight loss. My high school yearbook quote was, “One lives in the hope of becoming a memory.” He lived such a remarkable life and touched so many. I’ll keep my body in motion and carry his inspiration with me always. I wrote a blog how I first met "the other man in my life." fbjfit.com/2017/03/this-is-w… #gilad #bodiesinmotion #giladjanklowicz

There aren’t the right words to say what Gilad meant to me and how big of a part he played in my weight loss and fitness story. Getting to meet and become friends with Gilad was a gift in my life. I was absolutely heartbroken to hear the news of his sudden passing. The world lost a force of nature and truly one of the best people. What an amazing legacy he leaves behind. Keep your Bodies In Motion. I will miss you forever my friend. 💔😢 #gilad #bodiesinmotion

I have a philosophy I call my “Drawer a Day Program.” Whether it’s cleaning, organizing, work, or losing weight, I try not to get completely overwhelmed by looking at the giant task ahead of me. So, I break it down into tiny bites. When I had 100 pounds to lose, I just focused on 5-pound mini goals so I wouldn’t get discouraged and quit. Right now, going through my mom’s things, I can only do a little at a time. Amidst the tears that don’t seem to want to stop, there’s always something that makes me laugh out loud: the Foxmoor and Deb Shop clothes with the tags still on, squirreled away in a drawer, the note she saved from 7th-grade me desperately begging to go to a school dance, and most recently, this gem. This was on picture day, by the way. Can you even imagine what it looked like on a regular day?! That photo is exactly why I have such serious haircut PTSD. It’s Monday, the first of a brand-new month, so put on the big smile of 6-year-old me and let’s crush some goals one small step at a time. P.S. To all my hairdressers over the years… hopefully this finally gives you some clarity. #DrawerADay #SmallGoalsBigWins #HaircutPTSD #MondayMotivation #OneStepAtATime

Local to Boston? YOU'RE INVITED TO A COMPLIMENTARY ADVANCE SCREENING OF NORMAL STARRING BOB ODENKIRK Tuesday, April 14 at 7:00 PM at AMC Boston Common, 175 Tremont Street Seats are limited and expected to fill quickly, so be sure to RSVP soon to secure your spot and experience the film with one of its very first audiences. RSVP HERE: tinyurl.com/NORMAL BOSTON The latest collaboration between Bob Odenkirk, JOHN WICK creator Derek Kolstad and NOBODY producer Marc Provissiero, director Ben Wheatley’s (FREE FIRE, HIGH RISE) kinetic neo-Western stars Odenkirk as an unassuming substitute sheriff with a troubled past who, after moving to a small, sleepy town, responds to a bank robbery and unknowingly uncovers something far more explosive. For Sheriff Ulysses (Odenkirk), his provisional posting to the quaint Midwestern American town of Normal was meant to be a welcome respite from both his marital woes and recent moral injuries in the line of duty. But when a botched bank robbery interrupts the municipality’s tranquil pace, a dark secret is inadvertently exposed, and Ulysses soon discovers that the town is anything but its namesake. 90 Minutes Rated R @MagnoliaPics
