Get Started:
Three dieters who failed to lose weight when they underwent TV personality Dr. Phil’s diet “Shape Up!” are now suing the popular star. Dr. Phil’s diet plan has been discontinued.
The three dieters are hoping to expand their lawsuit from a fraud claim and into a national class-action lawsuit. A class-action lawsuit would open up the claims to include all people who have tried Shape Up! and not lost weight. The three dieters are seeking a monetary refund as well as damages stemming from undergoing the diet plane.
The diet plan consisted of over 20 different herbal supplements and vitamins that the dieter had to take daily. In addition the Shape Up! diet also advised stringent dietary restrictions and exercise routines and cost around $120 a month to maintain.
Dieters reported that they thought they would be able to lose weight by just taking the pills. They maintain that the advice of Dr. Phil suggested that they would be able to do just that.
