Dr Phil’s Weight loss diet- a lot of bull but no action

Everyone who goes on TV to become a talk show host wants to write a book on diet. Oprah wrote a book, Dr Oz has a book, Suzanne Sommers has many books, and now it is the loud mouth, Mr. know it all, Dr Phil who has written a book on diet.

This self-proclaimed psychologist who creeps into peoples homes (remember Brittney) to know if they are crazy, has authored a book on diet. His philosophy is simple- teach your brain to feel and look at life in a positive way; and by changing the inside, the outside can be changed- what a revelation Dr Phil!

The entire diet book by Dr Phil is based on a psychological and behavior approach on how to stop eating. You must take control of your impulses, relieve stress, balance your emotions, leave in peace, and reach out and touch someone (or yourself). Taking care of emotions is the first step to weight loss. Dr Phil also mentions that one should alter their lifestyle, throw out junk food, stop buying pop beverages and sugary foods- flood the kitchen with whole wheat and high fiber foods- few calories but a lot of POOP.

Not all is bad about Dr Phil’s diet plan. He does recommend exercise. This is a must if someone wants to lose weight. He recommends exercise at all costs, join a support group, start walking, jumping -do something.

The diet book is boring. Dr Phil has his usual dull anecdotes and charts. He also encourages all dieters to keep a log of the foods they eat.
