I am getting tired of Marie Osmond and her diets. She is on a TV commerical it seems every show. Now she is TSV and she will dominate the ITKWD cooking show today. I bet she is on there probably half the show and then more all day long. I was looking forward to David returning but really bummed out to see that the TSV will be on his show.

Re: Getting tired of Marie...

I’ve always liked Marie Osmond. She’s a beautiful talented woman.However,I don’t believe for one second that Nutrisystem had anything to do with her weight loss. I think it had to do with excercise ( Dancing With The Stars) & surgery!! JMO

Tired of her too. She is very plastic looking.

Re: Getting tired of Marie...

@NicksmomESQ  I disagree -  in fact, the best thing I heard Marie say in the minute I watched last night (literally one minute!)  was that exercise tones us but it's not why we lose much weight.  The exercise benefits our heart health and even our emotional health, but do we need it to lose weight?   Sorry -  but my personal experience is that exercise without portion control doesn't shed enough pounds so that it's noticeable.

 

Did she have surgery?  I have no idea, but even if she did -  she certainly didn't lose 50 pounds via the knife!

 

All that said -  no, I wouldn't try Nutrisystem -  did it once when the other spokeswoman was on QVC (even less interesting than Marie!).  I lost weight, but didn't like wnough of what what I was eating to re-order.

Agree. So. Tired of seeing and hearing Marie. Just turn on tv and who do you see. I know change the channel. So you say. Too much of sameness on qvc . repeat repeat.

As soon as I see her, whether on Q or a commercial, I change the channel.

@millieshops I agree that portion control might have played a role.I don’t believe that Nutisystem had anything to do with it .JMO  but I still think plastic surgery played a bigger role.

 As far as excercise,if it’s rigorous like dancing you can lose quite a bit of weight.I know someone who lost over 20 lbs. dancing an hour a day everyday.She did it with dance videos by Richard Simmons.

Re: Getting tired of Marie...

I am too!  Saves me money because I on't watch QVC. I've tried them all.

 

If they work for people (long term) good for them.  Studies show most people gain it back (I did).  I think it's up to the person to loose weight and keep it off. 

 

No celebrity can do that.  All one has to do is eat a lot of small meals, eliminate sugar as much as you like/can and on and on....!

 

Not so easy, but I don't need anyone telling me how to do it.  Most overweight people (like myself) could tell anyone how to loose weight (not brain surgery).  It's following through.....well....that's the issue.

 

Most overweight people (again, like myself) don't eat a lot of food, it's all about the choices....we ALL know that.

 

Anyway, I wish she'd not had so much surgery.  She was pretty before.

Re: Getting tired of Marie...

this is the time of year for all that weight loss stuff--wonder if the Nutri food is any good as far as the taste cuzz it was discusting before!! I won't be watching today--she'll  be on every other hour, like it is now on the Q with the TSV's.
