Dr Phil this friday on gastric bypass

He had Carnie Wilson and several other folks on last Friday about the surgery, or is there to be another show about it? I know Dateline NBC is airing a show about it this week. Tina

soemtimes when it comes to weight loss. I heard him tell someone once that they were just lazy and that's why they were overweight. Tough love may be OK for some things, but for a person who has fought this battle their entire lives from puberty to middle age doesn't need to hear something like that, you know? Especially if they have struggled a nd lost weight a MILLION times over just to gain it back. I kind of think it's funny , too, that he is all of a sudden accepted as a weight loss guru. Have you SEEN him lately? LOL.

I'm not sure. I just saw a blurb at the bottom of the screen about it. Did you hear Carnie is pregnant?

I have watched Dr. Phil maybe 3 times and never all the way through. The first time I saw the show, like Justina said, he was saying all sorts of horrible things regarding people with weight problems-- they just dont apply to everyone, I dont think they apply to the majority of people. He is an idiot when it comes to dealing with people who have a weight problem. His lack of "counseling" skills are just atrocious. Maybe he has seen the error of his ways but I dont think so. He is in a position to actually help, and if he would take his head out of is A#$, he could probably do some good (If someone likes Dr. Phil, dont take offence, this obviously is just my oppinion) If someone watches please give an update on the show; maybe he has seen the light. Thanks
