I dislike Dr. Oz with a passion Id like to just say that lol What a show hes got on there today...hypnosis for weight loss....what else is new....really....come on....his last gastric bypass show was a total joke as well. Im going to watch this for an entertainment purpose only.  Let me know what you think of it.

I'm embarrassed to admit that I've tried hypnosis for weight loss....twice!

I went once in a group setting with a hypnotist that came to town.  I went another time for a few one to one sessions with a psychiatrist.  Neither worked...just one of the many attempts at weight loss before RNY.

I tried it once, years ago. Obviously, it didn't work for me.

 I cant stand Dr Oz either.. he is a quack that puts many lives at risk.. but you know what millions tune in to watch him... 

the moment I stopped watching is when he advised if you think someone has had a stroke give them asprin ... he siad if they cant swallow then just crush up the pill the best you can....what he failed to say is never administer medications to someone you dont know... I can see it now... someone has a seizure and some well meaning person gives them a crushed up asprin and the patient has deathly reactions to ASA.... wow theres a law suit

I am totally turned off by "dr. oz"...his shows just seem to encourage fear....the top ten things that are going to kill...10 things that will contribute to cancer...

I'm both amused and disgusted by Dr. Oz and his scrubs, like he just came out of an operating room to greet his adoring 95% female audience. 

"Ohhh Dr. Ozzzz!  Ooooooh!"

Bleah.  Anyhow, yeah, he also had Rosie O'Donnell on his show and did a whole armchair psychotherapy session with her recently about why she has a weight problem.  I just find it so condescending when thin people such as him, who have absolutely no experience with obesity, and who should, as a doctor, know the stats on how well dieting works, keeps pushing dieting and fad crap cures like hypnotherapy.
