Dr. Phil Tackles Weight Loss

Posted on September 22, 2003

Dr. Phil, a psychologist and talk show host, is now tackling the problem of weight loss with a blunt behavioral approach. His new book, The Ultimate Weight Solution: The 7 Keys to Weight Loss Freedom, offers advice on learning why you overeat, how to avoid problem foods and understanding emotional eating. Along with the book, Dr. Phil has also released a line of weight loss pills called Shape Up! Critics have complained the book contains very obvious advice and that the plan won't work in the long run, but that hasn't stopped Dr. Phil's latest book from hitting the bestseller lists.
