    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!

    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..."

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

    My "tool detector" has an off-the-charts reading right now. Gack. the sad thing is, PEOPLE WILL BUY IT AND DO WHAT HE SAYS. People are amazingly stupid.

    So very true!

    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.

    NO, "UP to" means just that up to not exactly 24 so if you lose only one you have lost "up to" 24 pounds

    Went into a health food store yesterday and saw a 'Check out or Doctor Oz display' sign. Walked back out.

    Is that even a real magazine cover?
    If you Google it, absolutely nothing comes up about this diet. He has a ton of other ideas for 'crash' diets, but not one where 24lbs can be lost in one week.
    I think there may be some photoshop action going on here..... :)

    I'm 99.9% sure it's real. :) I work in a grocery store part time and it's my duty to put out magazines. I see titles like this one all the time. It's stupid and my coworkers and I have good laughs over it.

    In fact, I'm fairly sure I saw this cover myself... although I see so many ridiculous Oz covers that it's hard to remember for sure.

    It has the oz seal of approval. So Who do I throw my money at? Or can I just flush the money down the toilet?

    If I accidentally ran over Dr. Oz with my car, I'd back up and do it again. He should have his medical license revoked for all of the bad advice he dishes out and for just overall being a sellout to the medical profession.

    Only 24lbs a week? why not 25?


    No, not 25! That's just impossible! 24 is the key number here.... just like 7 minute abs...

    Not suggesting you did :). I didn't realize you had actually snapped the shot. I often see people posting pics they "find" in the net that aren't real.

    Never cared for Oz (or any other Oprah spin-off) but that assertion is irresponsible. What a tool.
