I have been on diets that were supervised by doctors, that were carefully supervised where I lost weight.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The doctor asked what my diet was like and I had to sit down and realize it's not normal, and hadn't been normal for about 20 years.
I have found the right way to deal with my diet, largely through trial and error, but also by having good people around me all the time, and they have given me the right advice for my body.
They sent me to these places to get the weight off. The diets never worked; the diets actually made it worse.
Most diets would have you cutting things out from your diet; they are about denial and discipline.
I'm a much healthier eater and I've lost quite a bit of weight over the years.
I've never had body issues, I've never had an eating disorder. I've never had to go on a diet and that's because of Weight Watchers.
When you're the spokeswoman for a weight-loss program, everything is witnessed. I weigh in once a week with a witness. I have to sign an affidavit saying I cannot have any surgeries.
When I gained weight in 2005, my nutritionist was very worried. I was close to having diabetes.
I have tried every diet to lose weight. When you restrict yourself, you're setting yourself up for failure.
I followed the same diet for 20 years, eliminating starches, living on salads, lean meat, and small portions.
