Default Dr Phil 7 keys to weight loss

I am looking for a diet buddy. Ideally you should be like me, female, over
100lbs to lose, no kids.

I have just purchased Dr Phils book and would like someone to chat to anyone
who is following his 7 steps. I'm in the UK.

Dr. Phil has a website with message boards. If no one here wants to be your
diet buddy, you might ask there. Why so picky about who you chat with about
this?

Hello xxxx,

I replied to the email you sent me. Of course I'm male, had more than 100
pounds to lose, and I have kids. I don't know why that should matter
though, this is a great place to tell others what's on your mind. There are
others here I believe from the UK like you. Anyways, I enjoyed Dr. Phil's
book and would be glad to correspond if you want to or if you have any
questions.

Sincerely,

Paul in Good Ole Texas US of A

I applaud you for your effort.

Dr. Phil...have you noticed he's about 60 pounds over weight? I'd pick
another person to follow. Have you seen Dr. Bruner that has been on his
show? She doesn't subscribe to his program, she's on the medical advisory
board of another another group of Doctors.

Good luck,

Michelle

i have to agree with all of that. how can a person who is *clearly*
battling a weight problem of thier own sale information on how to lose
the pounds and keep them off. i find it hilarious to the point of

passing
out actually. there are too many people out there who have lost the
pounds and kept it off and willing to share thier info for free.. take
this group for example!!! anyway the guy creeps me out also. peace

I have to admit that Dr Phil does look like a fat person trying to
hide his fatness, but does anyone know of how much he actually weighs?
I don't watch TV, sorry.

I was very down on Dr. Phil but decided to check his "7 key to weight loss"
book out of the library. I was shocked at how really sensible it is. If you
can get a copy of the book from the library or if you have the money to
spare, I'd recommend that you read it. Dr. Phil talks about getting to a
weight that you can maintain and is healthy for you. It may not be the
weight at which you have only 10% body fat. So his idea weight is higher
than you think it should be. You don't have to live in Dr. Phil's body, he
does. I don't think that makes him a hypocrite. I still find it sort of
troubling to see the multitude of Dr. Phil branded diet stuff filling up the
"health" food section of the grocery store. I haven't really looked at the
ingredients to see if it's better than Atkins branded stuff or the slimcrap
stuff. I don't begrudge the guy his ability to make money, though.

I think his book makes a lot of sense. Don't knock it if you haven't read it.
I think his program is helping a lot of people,myself included. Beverly B

I've seen him mentioned at 6' 4" and 240 pounds. He admits to fighting his
weight problem and also mentions he has many obese people in his family. He
is a large guy, just look at the size of his hands or his head. While he may
have some weight he could do without, he is very active from all accounts. I
also think he looks taller than 6' 4".

I think it's easier to listen to someone who does struggle like the rest of
us than someone who is rail thin and has never fought their weight. He is
much more "real" in that sense.

He is probably healthier, even with that extra 20 pounds than many people
who are skinny but never exercise or eat junk food all the time.

I don't think Dr. Phil is overweight. I don't know how folks say he is.
Has anyone seen him without a suit on? I haven't, he's a tall individual
and plays tennis daily, probably has a personal chef to cook for him. He's
made several books on weight issues and I'm sure he practices what he
preaches. He speaks the truth about why people are overweight. I've
noticed lots of folks don't like him and his method or approach, but I like
him and I like his writings. His book reads well, makes sense, and is very
inspirational. IMHO
