She also went on about what her weight is now & what her lowest was when she shot the Jenny Craig add. She is clearly & unhealthily obsessed with her the number on the scale. drummergrrrl I know, it did make me feel more aggro.

Great, just another new and creative way to promote eating disorders. Doesn't this just make you feel more militantly aggro about the way even other women marginalize each other? Because you're a success when you're skinny, not when you actually contribute to society *smacks self on forehead* “She said on The View that she carries a scale with her all the time so she’ll always know her weight & she uses it as a barometer for how she’s doing. 8-O

I'm not entirely sure how prepackaged meals teaches anyone portion control and nutrition. Maybe she will out the Jennie Craig system.

Let's not forget that she has gotten many kinds of "support" from Jenny Craig for her weight loss.

I can't say it was the best book I ever read, but it wasn't just about counting calories.
