Of course, what do you expect from a place that's full of 15 - 25 year old virgin males? :p

You aren't exactly his target audience...
Exactly. How arrogant do you have to be, to claim that you know more than this guy.

Of course he's out to make money. No different than 99% of the rest of America. Why criticize him for it, other than just because he's successful?

OK, time for a moment of reality. Some weight issues in people are caused by emotional issues within themselves that may have been caused by issues in the past. For these "weight" issues, a psychologist might do more good for you than a diet - because you'll understand your issues and what triggers you to eat.
Correction, the vast majority of failed weight loss intentions are sabotaged by emotional/psychological "issues" (stinking thinking).

People who stand in front of the mirror and heap hatred on themselves or attribute their weight as the source of their misery (e.g. I would be happy if only I could lose weight) when their weight or failure to lose it is really a symptom of their misery.

And Dr. Phil is absolutely right to not enable them to think this is not a choice. It is a choice. The same choice people make to get their asses off the couch four and five days a week to workout or run vs. people who sit around waiting for science to invent a pill.
He was an athlete in college and high school. He played football and tennis. He still plays tennis every day.
Heh, Dr. Phil went to college on a football scholarship.
