What You MIssed Last Night: Valerie Bertinelli and Marie Osmond battle over diets

by Bob Sassone, posted May 15th 2009 11:25AM
I don't usually post gossip show clips, but I'm doing this for two reasons. One, I find it funny that two 70s icons are going after each other over their weight loss programs. And two, I can't imagine Ted Koppel doing this story when he was on Nightline. (Full Nightline segment here.) Bertinelli calls Osmond's Nutrisystem food "crappy," while Osmond wonders why a 49 year-old would want to be in a bikini. (For the record, I think Bertinelli looks great in a bikini.)

Valerie is right...Nutrisystem food IS crappy! I really tried to use it for a month but I couldn't; most of the stuff is HORRID!!! . The people who say Nutrisystem food is good are either liars or they never learned how to cook tasty food. Blech!

Am I the only person that thinks Valerie looks a little "different" around the eyes? I don't know if changing your eye makeup would make a difference, but she looks like she may have had some work done.

I am in the same situation as you. Everyday seems to be a struggle but somehow I get through it. I feel so bad that you have to go a month without meds. Isn't there a program for you through DHS? I wish you the best and hopefully GOd will get you through this. GOD bless you Susie, I know how you feel.

Now girls pull in your claws. Both look great. If one of them wants to wear a bikini good for her. If the other one doesn't want to see some 49 year old in a bikini, then don't look

I really dont care which program is better. Both of these women look absolutely fantastic to these 59 year old eyes. Congrats to both for setting the tone for all women.

Osmond makes my skin crawl - and I agree Valerie looks pretty good at 49 in a bikini - I'm sure there was some photoshop but that's to be expected.

As to diets - cut out the soda, hfcs, french fries and potato chips completely, cut down on the red meat and eat a few more fruits and vegetables and you'll be SHOCKED what happens. I lost 15 pounds, have better LDL and got off Prilosec just by changing just those things. Thanks Doc....
