1. Morgan, you are a fitness expert, and even have a degree in nutrition! What kind of work out would you suggest to someone just starting out?

For someone who is just starting out, I would suggest starting with a basic cardio and weight lifting routine that should be performed four to five days a week. This would include about 30-45 minutes cardio (which can be just a fast paced walk for beginners) at least three days a week, and then 20 minutes weight lifting exercises at least three days a week. Most gyms offer free initial consultations with personal trainers who will show you how to use the weight machines. Fitness magazines also provide great exercises with great pictures that are easy to follow. Another option is to purchase a workout video, which allows you to workout in the comfort of your own home. I really like Denise Austin's videos.. she is a little peppy.. but her workouts are really good.

2. As a nutrition expert... do you cringe every time you pass by a fast food restaurant?

I wouldn't say that I cringe at fast food restaurants, but I do get annoyed by the fact that they are on almost every corner. It is possible to eat a "decent" meal at a fast food restaurant, but most people do not select the healthy options from the menu. I am impressed with McDonalds new menu item, "the asian chicken salad". It actually is really healthy and tastes pretty good!

3. So you are out in L.A. modeling. What are your future plans?

I plan to continue modeling for as long as possible. I am happy with where my career has gone so far, but I still have many goals within my modeling career that I intend to reach. I have traveled many places with modeling, but I plan to make more international connections with my career so I can see more of Europe and maybe parts of Asia. I also want to further my acting career. Modeling, especially swimsuit modeling, can only last so long, so I have been taking acting classes to develop my acting skills. I would love to land a role on a sitcom or in a feature film someday. Outside of the entertainment industry, I do plan on settling down someday and having a family. I love kids and while I know it won't be anytime too soon, I still look forward to the day that I have kids of my own. Until then, my little chihuahua does just fine!

4. Tell us a crazy celebrity/L.A. story!

Growing up in Southern California, I have seen my share of celebs growing up..and I have had my share of crazy LA nights. Something I will always remember was the night of my 18th birthday. I went out to dinner to my favorite sushi restaurant in Sunset Beach, Tsunamis, and Rebecca Romjin-Stamos and her at the time husband John Stamos were sitting next to me. They are both so beautiful and it was cool that they wished me a happy birthday. I just liked the fact that they were down to earth and genuinely nice people. Sorry if that isn't the most exciting story.. but those are the things I like to remember.

5. Finally... you live in the O.C. Since the show, "The O.C." has come out, what's the biggest misconception people have about Orange County?

I think the show makes it look like everyone in Orange County either has a ton of money or a serious problem. It seems like everyone on the show is either rich or has a drug or alcohol problem, or ends up in prison for one reason or another. Most of the characters are rich AND have a serious problem. It is true that there are some people in orange county who have a lot of money and that there are some people in orange county who have problems.. but there are lower income areas and many middle class families. I don't think we are nearly as "dramatic" as the show makes us out to be.. sorry to burst your bubble if you are a big fan.. but then again.. maybe I am just used to it and we are crazy.. haha.
