    Dr. Oz must be very confused. Everyday he promotes some new fangled diet miracle drug or solution and then says he isn't getting paid to promote this etc. and if someone uses his name to promote it - its false advertisement and don't believe them.
    But didn't you just promote it? NOW I'M CONFUSED???? :frown:

    Sounds like the breakfast food industry has put some money in his pocket recently.

    The only reason Dr. Oz ever endorses anything is the kickback dollars. Quack.

    buy more bacon!!!

    That's not a new theory, back in the day it was...

    Breakfast: Eat like a King

    Lunch: Eat Like a Prince

    Dinner: Eat like a Peasant

    I don't think this is all that old either. Not sure, but eating patterns early and pre-industrial revolution were quite different for the vast majority of people than the 3 meals a day that we have today.

    I think studies show that if you don't pay attention to what you eat... you'll eat less if you eat a big breakfast...

    Has no meaning for those of us who are conscience about what we eat and override our 'primal programming'.

    Well apparently our body shuts down at night and needs no fuel to repair from daily activities and exercise. That should mean that we no longer need rest to recover either. Now, off to figure out how to eat a big breakfast without getting sick...I can't stand eating in the mornings.

    Dr Oz is so commercial. He uses pseudosceince and targets the general uneducated population of the U.S. to prove his "theory". Which in reality is not a theory, but just a study which wasn't proven by several scientist to be proven true. Yes, one fact may correlate to another, but it is not the exact causation of what he says. I used to look up to this guy before I met MFP.

    Yah I personally feel that the only ones who "should" eat breakfast are kids....

    As for adults some people are not breakfast people...I personally am and couldn't imagine going without it...but not everyone is like me....

    Dr Oz lives in a land of golden roadways, talking scarecrows and Good white witches and evil witches...

    And like the other Oz his info is all smoke and mirrors too....

    Dinner is my biggest meal and I snack until bed time. Met my goal weight that way and have been successfully in maintenance for months doing the same thing.

    I wonder if he has finally run out of things to say, and now he is going back to his very first advice when he first aired?

    I can see it now, next week he will talk about how eating at night will help you sleep and rev up metabolism.

    Biggest meal should be breakfast.


    Was the next commercial break for IHOP, Denny's or the like?

    Biggest meal should be breakfast.

    Then Lunch.

    Suppose to eat like a rabbit for supper.

    He flat out said it's true and said their are studies to prove it that you can not eat your biggest meals at night and be successful for weight loss.

    I say to Dr. Oz....

    STICK IT!
    You must be new here. Dr. Oz isn't a reliable source of info and many times speaks out of his *kitten* without consulting what actual medical journals confirm when it comes to nutrition and health.

    Actually studies show that metabolic rate is higher during REM sleep than during the day, and also that people who exercise burn more calories overnight than those who don't.
