Dr Phil Comes Clean

Dr Phil Promoting Milk
Maybe that should be egg on his face.
As the lawsuit against Dr Phil gathers momentum, some interesting information has come forward. Dr Phil apparently admitted he had "no expertise" in making the diet pills he endorsed. The Shape Up line of supplements (by CSA Nutraceuticals) were removed from sale during 2004.

"This fleshes out our position that Dr. Phil was in charge ... he was rewriting the commercials," said lawyer Henry Rossbacher, who filed the lawsuit against McGraw in 2004 on behalf of three unhappy customers. (via AP)

Eh... not so much

Who would buy diet pills from a fat man?

You know, since CSA stopped producing the supplements, I got emails from people asking where to buy them, because they felt the pills worked...

Make what you will of that...

A long time ago in the service we had these pain relievers called Obecalp – placebo spelled backwards – some people thought those worked too. I saw Dr. Phil on Imus the other morning – he must not be able to get any either – he was so heavy he looked like he was about to explode.

PS - Now he just needs to admit he knows nothing about Psychology either.

TROY....
I READ YOUR STATEMENT... MY FAMILY IS FROM WATERTOWN AND SYRACUSE!.....I KNOW HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT OVER EATING....I AM 26 YRS. OLD AND BEEN HEAVY ALL MY LIFE....YOUR STATEMENT TOUCHED MY HEART....I WOULD LIKE TO HELP YOU, OR MAYBE GIVE YOU SOME ADVICE.
DUDE, DONT BE AFRAID TO TELL YOUR DOCTOR OR YOUR MOM ABOUT THE HUNGER YOU FEEL....I KNOW IT IS NOT EASY,OR MAY FEEL WEIRD TO TALK ABOUT... BUT THE DOCTOR CAN TEACH YOU ABOUT DEIFFERENT FOODS THAT CAN MAKE YOU FEEL FULL...OR FOODS YOU CAN EAT A LOT OF.....OR FOODS THAT CAN HELP YOU LOOSE WEIGHT IF YOU EAT THEM BEFORE A GAME!
IT IS NORMAL FOR YOU TO FEEL HUNGRY, AS A GROWING MAN....MEN ARE ALWAYS HUNGRY!
BUT, A DIET MAY NOT BE THE RIGHT DECISION FOR YOU RIGHT NOW....I THINK YOUR SPORTS AND DIFFERENT FOODS "FUEL FOODS" COULD HELP YOU ON THE RIGHT TRACK....

JUST A THOUGHT....GO CYCLONES!

Troy,

I agree with Jim - I don't like diets - however certain changes in the kinds of food you eat may make a big difference.

I had a big weight problem until I got rid of certain carbohydrates like sugar, candy, deserts, pasta, potatoes, french fries, most breads and soft drinks with sugar - high glycemic carbs - things that spike my blood sugar.

These foods kept me hungry all the time. I now use a low glycemic diet with lots of protein, low glycemic carbs and healthy fats - I eat often - 6 times per day - do not get hungry like I used to - and have kept my weight off for four years now. I lost 75 pounds in a year with this eating plan.

Do you really think Dr. Phil has all the answers? His own wife just had her lips blown up like all the other ho hum drum people in Hollywood.

You would think that since Dr. Phil is all about inner beauty his own wife would practice what HE preaches.

Now all she has is a baboons butt for lips!

Dr. Phil, go get a real job! And leave the thinking to the experts.

I THINK PEOPLE SHOULD USE MORE OF THERE COMMON SENSE, ANYONE ON A DIET SHOULD NOT DEPEND ON A PILL ANYWAY, NO MATTER WERE IT COMES FROM OR WHO'S NAME IS ON IT. SO DR.PHIL WAS SMART ENOUGH TO MAKE SOME MONEY IN THIS MARKET, GUARANTEE YOU WOULD TO IF THE OPPORTUNITY, WAS AVAILABLE TO YOU.

Leave DR.PHil alone people.. do none of you have resepect to leave others alone.. If you think you know whats going on.. are you family.. friends of him. IF the answer is no.. then stop saying things you don't understand. The media is never correct. So stop now what you all are doing.
