I have a confession to make to all of you...

I am a single hetero male, but I have to admit that I have a serious man-crush on Dr. Oz. :blushing:

I wish it were only because of the incredible amount of useful information he offers. In fact, it's much more than that. He's geeky, funny, intelligent, encouraging, and some women think sexy (I have no opinion about that...).

Leaving my bromance behind, the purpose of my post was to share an episode I DVR'd:

---> Dr. Oz’s Best Time of Day to Lose Weight Timetable

I couldn't find the video of the episode. But the reasoning behind his assertions seem scientifically valid. Here is the timeline for a given day.

6:30 AM: Weigh Yourself (this means you have to get up! Ughh!)

6:35 AM: Exercise

7:30 AM: Eat Breakfast

8:00 AM: Metabolism Boost (occurs because of previous)

10:00 AM: Grocery Shop (a safe time to shop so you don't buy crap)

12:00 PM: Lunch

6:15 PM: Fiber Supplement

6:30 PM: Dinner

He doesn't mention snacks in there but obviously we need them for the in between times.

I wish there was a clip out there on some of this... it really seemed to make sense.

    I think he's sexy (and I am a woman, so I do have an opinion on that). He also shares a lot of really good information.

    I like this timetable. I think I remember that episode. I would love to see more information on it and the science behind it. :smile:

    That's all good and well, but who, with a 9-5 job, can go grocery shopping at 10am???

    Yeah, seriously. And who only needs 55 minutes to work out, shower, and have breakfast ready?

    Good to know! This is very similar to my day to day schedule, minus the 10 am shopping trip (I work during the day).

    Oz is a quack. His advice ranges from obvious to total BS.

    I work rotating 12hr shifts , so I have great trouble sticking to a set schedule like that one.

    But I do get the principle of it

    Does reality actually exist before 8:00am? I've never tested this out, but it seems scary :)

    I believe that requires a cup of coffee.. I know my brain cells lack sufficient function....and its always needed when I get up at 5am...

    Thanks for sharing! :flowerforyou:

    He has some very informative pieces on women sneaking more iron rich foods into your daily lives. Some very good stuff . However, 6:35 in the morning is bed time for me :) silly night shift!

    I can do all but the early morning exercise-I just cannot wake up enough to do it. I do exercise at lunch or after work.*sigh*

    I shop every day. How else will I get the freshest fish, meats, bread and produce?

    Yeah I definitely need to shop more than once a week.

    While in theory, this is a brilliant schedule, not everyone works during the day and therefore being up at 6am just isn't in the cards. I used to work nights and I would go to bed at 9am, get up and shower/breakfast/workout all by 2pm, go to my 1st job by 3:30pm, get off that at 10pm, and go work the graveyard at my 2nd job by 11pm and get off at 7am the next day. I really don't miss those days, but there are plenty of people out there that have a schedule this busy or worse! My heart goes out to them!

    I live the car-free, urban life and I just can't buy in bulk period. I mean, I suppose I could take a cab, and shop for the whole week..but that seems stupid. It's more convenient for me to hit the market on my way to the subway stop after work. Besides, it's just me and the hubbin, so I can't buy big quantities of anything, really.
