In November 2011, I was a guest on the 400th episode of The Dr. Oz Show. I had been a huge fan of his ever since he used to make occasional appearances on The Oprah Winfrey Show, and I was thrilled to be invited to share my weight loss story on his show!
#1: My First Time Meeting Dr. Oz
I met Dr. Oz in 2009, just as I began my weight loss journey. I always thought it would be cool to get an "after" photo with him... and had no idea it would actually happen!
#2: My Phone Interview
The producers called me and we chatted all about my story. This was the first step in being a guest on the show.
#3: Feeling Like Cinderella
After spending a whirlwind 24 hours in NYC, having my hair done (by Ted Gibson!) and gorgeous make-up, it felt like midnight was approaching at it would all be over soon.
#4: The Preview!
The preview of Dr. Oz's 400th episode is available--and you can catch a quick glimpse of me in it!
#5: The Show is Finally Online for Viewing!
In case you missed the episode, you can watch it on Dr. Oz's website. There are a few parts, and you can see me starting at 2:53 in "Part 2"
#6: My Experience on The Dr. Oz Show (Part 1)
Arriving in NYC and a super quick preparation for the show!
#7: My Experience on The Dr. Oz Show (Part 2)
The filming of the 400th episode of The Dr. Oz Show!
#8: My Thoughts After Watching the Show
It was surprising to see just how much was edited out of the show! But the experience itself was fun, and I'm glad I did it...
#9: An Update of My Thoughts on The Dr. Oz Show
I can't help but feel like Dr. Oz "sold out" to the masses of people who want to lose weight without diet or exercise. I was asked to be on the show a second time, but I declined because I just don't agree with the direction his show has taken.
