I'm calling a foul on Jillian Barberie from the Good Day LA and Nutrisystem.
She had a baby recently. To the right, you can see what she looked like pregnant. Now she's doing Nutrisystem commercials, saying that their diet food helped her lose 40 pounds.
Did they start with her weight when she was pregnant? Or was it her weight right after she had the baby. I'm sure Nutrisystem is great, and it probably did wonders for Dan Marino and Don Shula and Sean Salisbury, but c'mon. Jillian had a rockin' body before the baby and she's back at "fighting weight." Somehow, I don't think Nutrisystem had much to do with it.
In a related note, my dogs, Hollis and Sophie, are definitely eating Purina One. To the best of my knowledge, I've never endorsed a product that I didn't actually use. I have never said things that weren't true just to cash the endorsement check.
Jillian has always had a personal trainer, and never eats carbs - she says so constantly on "Good Day L.A."
It was only baby weight, and this ad is a lie and misleading. She was small before the baby, and has always been known to damn near starve herself.
The ad has a tiny disclaimer that says, "results not typical." It should say, "results never happened."
This ad is an out-and-out lie.

I consistently stated, "life is like a publication, how would you like to write, its what sort of guide. So our personal attitude determines existence. Not surprisingly, we might understand alot more meaningful book, it can give us inspiration.
