    24lbs in a week seems super dangerous and impossible.

    Yes. A strict crack-cocaine only diet.

    If someone tries this diet and fails to lose "up to 24 pounds in a week" the magazine and Dr. Oz have opened themselves up to a lawsuit.

    I am sure that somewhere in fine print, it states "your results may vary. And before begininng any weight loss program, please consult your physician..."

    I spotted this little gem in line at the grocery store today.

    The fact that they put "crash diet" right on the cover is ridiculous.

    It looks like that's Woman's World. They always put some ridiculous diet on the cover.

    I just don't understand how people can fall for this cr*p.

    The crazy thing is, my mom does--some days I cannot believe I share half of her DNA!

    I don't doubt Dr. Oz can lose 24lbs a week...when you're that full sh** a single bathroom trip can really make a difference.

    LMAO, good one!

    Plus, it says "up to." That means anywhere from "you'll gain weight" to "you'll lose 24 pounds."

    Wow! I can't believe a Dr would put his "seal" of approval on any kind of crash diet! It screams out "let me lead you to an eating disorder"!!! smh

    I am no Dr. Oz fan, but he didn't. This is a tabloid magazine with questionable ethics. They regularly post pictures of celebrities with claims they never made. I am always stunned by the huge sales of publications like this one.


    I thoroughly agree don't always believe what is published in these tabloid magazines nor do I waste my money buying them.....

    I have a way that you would loose 12 pounds in a single day.... remove the skin off your body. Too painful?

    Think about the simple math involved in this: 24 pounds is 84,000 calories. That would require a deficit of 12,000 calories EACH DAY that week through diet and exercise combined.
