Anyone watch Dr Phil today?

he had his sisters and a nephew on there as well as a few people talking about their weight loss so far. Just wondered if anyone else watched it. Their losses so far were very high, seemed a little outlandish to me..lol

There is something about Dr. Phil that faintly smells of him dabbling in areas that he should not dabble in, and although I wouldn't call it outright phoniness, there is something that smacks of insincerity about him.
And personally I think he's a pompous windbag. But hey, if he's helping someone, who cares what I think ? As long as he's not harming people or emptying wallets with false hopes, fine.
Just my 2 cents. Hope I did not insult or infuriate anyone.

Saw someone replied to the last dr phil post from months ago by a trollie which got me thinking about it and flipped through to see what his show was about today and it was on weight loss again. I want to read his book but my library doesn't have it and i don't feel like spending $ on it.
Want me to tell you what I really feel? :)
I don't agree with his stance that being overweight is an emotional and/or psychological dilemna. I know in my case it is not and I do not appreciate his grouping me into that theology. I know who I am and I am not lying to myself about anything about who I am.
I will agree with him that you need to be ready to lose weight and when you are ready to set up goals and go for it. However, not everything revolves around an emotional issue.
Ok, it's OBVIOUS I don't like him. Let's just hope the folks he helped lose weight can keep it off. Hell, kudos to ANYONE who loses weight and keeps it off.

But he is from DALLAS.
I am just amazed how everyone buys into his load of bs.
