Dr. Philโs guests say theyโre fed up with their loved ones who keep bullying them about their weight. First, Valinda says her husband, Doug, calls her โFatty,โ โWide Loadโ and โBig Girlโ and even makes cow noises while she eats ice cream. She says the constant ridicule is not only damaging her self-esteem, but itโs also destroying their marriage. Valinda says sheโs tried diets and has successfully lost weight, but claims that Dougโs lack of support sabotages her progress. Doug says heโs just trying to help motivate his wife to get healthy. Dr. Phil reminds Doug, who has a Ph.D. in behavioral psychology, that heโs way off the mark. Then, Donna says sheโll try to lose weight, but only if her son, Gary, stops picking on her about her size. Gary argues that his mom is lazy and needs to start exercising and stop eating junk food. Hear why his criticism may be adding more pounds to his motherโs frame. Plus, Liz Vaccariello, author of The Digest Diet, discusses the power of positivity in weight loss. Donโt miss her tips on shedding unwanted pounds. And, meet Adrienne, who has struggled with her weight since her teens. She says she has finally lost more than 60 pounds with Lizโs help. Can she help inspire Valinda and Donna to get healthy? If you or someone you know is struggling with weight loss, tune in! And, log on to DrPhil.com for a chance to win a copy of Lizโs book!
