Dr Phil's diet- part 2

So what can one eat?

As far as diet is concerned- buy foods that are bulky, difficult to cook and even more difficult to eat- lots of Yams, plantains or cassava- lots of fiber, carbohydrates, and minerals. Do not eat processed food, avoid sugars and drink lots of herbal tea. Moreover, if you are broke and still overweight, drink lots of water.

He recommends eating small portions and avoiding ready-made snacks, as you will definitely over eat. He says foods must be difficult to access and thus, one will not indulge. This will develop a habit of eating less by taking the desire away.

If you love beer, then you are out of luck, because Dr Phil says you cannot touch a drop. Go to the gym instead. Substitute your coca cola with a diet soda or try sex for exercise (now I know why everyone loves Dr Phil!).

Dr Phil has a lot of other positive things to say but above all, he says one should be the master of food. The brain and stomach should be in control of the dieter.

What about the experts- they all say it is great advice, encourages balanced diet, exercise, positive attitude and changing life styles. Dr Phil’s diet approach is gradual so you definitely won’t be on his show at least for a year or two.
As to how many people have used Dr Phil’s diet and lost weight is not known- but I am sure there must be a few. Negative testimonials on Dr Phil’s diet are few- perhaps the diet plan works.

Well, Dr Phil, just one simple question for you!

Rumor has it that Oprah (yes Oprah Winfrey) set you up for success some years ago. You have been on her show and vice versa, you socialize regularly with this million-dollar woman. But please Dr Phil, look at Oprah right now- she is fat (sorry I meant a ted bit chubby)- now if your diet plan is that great, do you not think she would have called you first to help her think positive? I mean you are her buddy and an expert in weight loss and everything else, so why did Oprah ignore you? Instead, she now has a personal trainer and nowhere does it say that Dr Phil was called upon for advice- just something for the weight loss diet affiandos to think about.

Like everything in life, garbage in one ear, out the other.
