Dr. Oz and the Neurotic Hungry Girl: When Obsessive Behavior Meets Compulsive Calorie Counters
It’s no secret that I have no respect for Lisa who calls herself the ‘Hungry Girl’. I change the channel when her show comes on the Food Network.
She’s neurotic and she is obsessed with counting calories while butchering foods to – stay hungry.
She says it’s about ‘no deprivation’ and feeling satisfied; but why call yourself ‘hungry if that is the real truth. I’m not buying it!
She would call herself the ‘satiated girl’. She only identifies with being hungry…
Dr. Oz and the Hungry Girl: Counting Calories and the All-Consuming Neurosis
She endlessly and needlessly swaps, cuts, and twists food recipes until they no longer resemble what the dishes were once upon a time. I couldn’t and would not eat that way…hello, I don’t even want to think that way!
She uses a lot of packaged items, she thinks that calories are more important than other aspects of food, and she is lost in the morass of marketing to people looking for improvements in food preparation.
She has a following, but how healthy are those people?
She uses a lot of frozen foods and we’ve discussed the lack of Chi in frozen or canned foods when compared to fresh. That a ‘bad habit girl’!
We eat to be satisfied. We eat to nourish our bodies. She is doing neither…
I hope that Dr. Oz doesn’t fall victim to her calorie-counting madness – it’s neurotic behavior and no one should model that behavioral cue.
Just like Paula Dean and her fatty southern fare, this is Lisa’s niche and she won’t abandon it. Fortunately, people don’t need to fall for the trickery and misleading gigs when there are healthy and satisfying ways to eat great food!
