I found the flyer for a Dr Phil show and offered it to my host who loves Dr. Phil. Anyone done one of these? Any ideas for food? The host is not really a chocolate person (not sure whats wrong with her! :) )
 
I have the food guide book. I could send you some of the daily food that you are allowed to have, but you would have to look up recipes somewhere. The book tells you what you are allowed to eat, but no recipes.
 
? I sure didnt follow that answer. :confused:
 
She wanted food ideas. If she is going with the Dr. Phil diet plan, they are restricted as to what they can eat. I have the book that gives meal plans, but they do not give recipes. For example you may be allowed baked fish, since that is all they say you would have to research a recipe for baked fish to make it work with the demo.

The theme show (as posted in a flyer somewhere on this site) is that we will be "fixing" guests difficulties with their kitchen utensils. Guests are asked to bring in a kitchen tool that is giving them difficulty, and then we will show them how they can replace it with a PC item. Anyone who brings an old tool will be placed in a drawing to recieve a replacement tool for 20 % off.
I don't think the host is following Dr PHils diet, she just likes his advice and TV show
 
That is what I was thinking PCAbby, then when that answer with the diet and following it came in I was confused.
