    Apparently it is VERY effective, and made especially for women.
    Who made this claim? The folks selling it? Any independent verification of this?

    Anything with PINK in it makes me think of tacky, trite clothes where people pay to advertise across their *kitten*. I will pass.

    30+ pounds in four or five months is do-able with good diet and exercise.. i Made up a 3 40 min workouts (circuit training with weights, mat work and plyometric moves) and i lost 6 pounds in a week! All i did was read up on nutrition, my body type and "youtubed" interval training lol

    Ive lost 150 lbs thru exercise and proper diet and it only costs me 25 a month for the gym ,of which I use 6 times a week, so I do get my moneys worth for the 25 bucks. Took me about 17 months and really didnt stress me too much. I just stayed focused and made the correct choices

    Dr Phil $how is the new Jerry $pringer with a PH. At one time it was an Ok show, now just another driveil show promoting the latest fad to make the $how more money..............he$ in it for the money............

    Ha, I was just watching this and googled it to see what it is. The red flag for me is they're not explaining anything. Their plan is different because they offer a weight reset? Well, how? They refuse to give specifics.

    I'm annoyed that this infomercial is being played on a regular talk show as if it is unbiased health information from a "doctor". Dr. Phil should have to disclose how much he's being paid to shill this crap.

    I guess botox is getting more costly and his wife Robyn, (who he SWEARS has never had a thing done to her face) is having her usual yearly maintenance package. I thought I was going to drop when he told his supportiveaudience that his sweet wife Robyn MaGraw has never had one thing done to make her look younger...............yeah, right guy.........

    Only in Hollywood...........LLoyd

    I dont take health advice from doctors who have a PhD in philosophy and have never been to medical school...

    There didn't seem to be all that much info on the site, but some of the before and after pics they have scrolling past on the video are not that impressive to me. Good luck to everyone tho. :)

    I'm 100% sure that "dr phil" is just coming up with a product to take advantage of this typical audience. ie.. a bunch of women ages 16-56 or whatever. He might have about 0.0001% more creditiblity if he showed off HIS abs.

    All he did was have someone re-package a bunch of well known ideas and hire a bunch of pretty woman that are ALREADY fit to push his product. "oh look at those pretty and fit ladies, I want to look like that, where to I send my money?"

    Watching Dr Phil show as well and she, Cynthia Pasquella, stated that she had a lot of cellulite and belly fat she got rid of just by doing her diet and so can we. Dr Phil questioned that claim but I was disappointed he didn't pursue it or ask for before/after pics of somebody or anybody! So she guarantees we can get rid of cellulite as well just she did.... hmmmm. That's a pretty big statement to make.

    Really? That sounds really tough to me. Maybe I'll manage a higher weight loss at first, but even working out every day for close to 90 minutes, I don't expect to lose that much that fast, not without passing out from hunger. I'm going to be very happy if I do lose that much for any extended period of time, though! I'm still not going to spend money on a packaged diet program, though, I like your way better!

    After watching the show and reading all of the posts, I'm not buying into the P.I.N.K. method. If anything, I'm going to up my exercise and get back to logging my food regularly. I'm sure by the time Jan 1 gets here, there will be 100 other NEW DIETS out there claiming easy ways to lose weight and keep it off... for the low price of ?????
