    My first thought was, "Wow, Dr. Lori is looking GREAT!"

    Nice job Dr. Lori! Now some yellow would compliment them. 👏👏🌹🐴r.t.

    Are kidding, no way! You look comfortable! Enjoy life

    I love this look for u. My kind of look. Down to earth. Your being close to the earth

    Hello from Alberta, Canada. May your mums bloom up a storm! My mom was born in October....so a different mum....teehee, but a special thing for October none the less. I love how confident you are, so free to be yourself! I wear old ratty stuff when I do work outside too.

    Omg, those mums are so beautiful!

    Looks so comfy !

    Hey there skinny Minnie. I’m so proud of you. Keep up the good work. I can’t wait to see u here in Houston.

    Looks comfortable

    love the color !! I planted yellow ones.

    That sweatshirt is just now broken in! I wish we could still buy hardy mum's that come back every year. My Mom had such beautiful ones.

    I love those beautiful mums!!!! Old comfy clothes are so soothing!!🤩🎉💕

    Beautiful you go girl Dr. Lori

    Old sweatshirts are THE BEST!!!!!!

    Looks great to me!

    Today I made Beef, Broccoli, Mushrooms and Almond Slices.😋I love making my own meals.

    Awesome! Know you shared recipes that were so yummy! You are inspiring me !

    Dr Lori pullin’ holos!!! ♥️

    You Go Girl!

    You're looking great! I'll bet you're feeling better, too.

    You are doing so well, it takes time. Good luck to you.

    I can see the difference. Keep up the good work.

    How many dark chocolate chips do u allow yourself?

    Chocolate chips! Yum.

    I like the chocolate chips the best in your cart !

    You go girl Dr. Lori

    💪🇺🇸🌎

    You are looking good Dr. Lori. Love seeing you with David and Heather

    More power to you, Dr Lori 👍🏻

    You can watch all you want but you need a little cheat once in awhile or one will go off the rails. Been there, done that!

    Give the hemp seed a try! I love it in apple sauce or yogurt! It’s rich in vitamins minerals omega 3’s and protein. Tastes yummy too

    Make it organic….

    You are doing so great. It is difficult at times. I know, I have lost 30, very slow, that is how I wanted it to go, mine is mainly giving up sugar and trying to cut back on other items.

    You look fabulous!! Love watching you on PTL.

    I am right with you, you are doing awesome!!! I am on a similar journey that I just started earlier this year, it is slow but I just take it one day at a time, and you are an inspiration

    Which diet are you using? All are difficult... 🙄

    Did you share this episode? It’s hilarious!! Pittsburgh Today Live

    It was a great episode! You guys have such chemistry! I take my work break so I can watch PTL on Tuesdays to see you and this segment!

    Yes they are funny but so are you Dr Lori. I really enjoy this segment. Tuesdays are a blast!

    Heather wanted the telephone lamp.

    The pay phone lamp. So unique & brings back memories, love it! Kudo's to the crafter!

    The Telephone Lamp

    She loved the lamp!!

    Just wanted to say thanks for appraising my "marriage" lamp. We are thinking of maybe selling it sometime. We enjoyed the show and that Heather liked it.

    Wow. I think I have to dig out the buried unused 10 minute video call certificate with Dr. Lori and inquire about the Lladro someone gave me! Wow. I figured $25. 🤣

    Do you do this with new clothes? #shopping #buttons #upcycling ... See MoreSee Less

    It's sweater weather. 🍂🍁

    OMG I've noticed on so many things even Ralph Lauren. Used to have mother of pearl buttons. Other sweaters the details were in the buttons. You would go to a store and there would be racks and racks of buttons. That is a super smart idea

    You look amazing in the red sweater and the buttons looks great

    Love it

    Great idea! You look wonderful in red!♥️

    Looks like so much fun!. We love you dr. Lori

    You look so beautiful in red!

    Love the red on you, and those new buttons really amp up the attractiveness! Good job, Dr. Lori!

    Do you have a button box? I have lots of buttons from Grandma's and Aunt Emma's button box. They are old cookie tins. Some of the buttons are too interesting to use but others are used regularly. I still have the note my Mother wrote to "Save the buttons."

    Love it. You look marvelous

    Yes, if I do not like the buttons on a new garment, I change them.

    Good on you, girl 👌 red is definitely your color.

    I still have my mom's " button box". Some of the old buttons are very elegant. Some of them got a lot of wear! Love the sweater, btw.❤️

    I love to do that, Dr. Lori! We took my in-laws to England for a vacation some years ago and I went to thrift stores and got London Fog raincoats for ALL of us ... then I bought really gorgeous, cool buttons and replaced the boring, generic buttons ... it was really fun and the coats looked so good.

    Great touch!

    I wore deep red today as well. Cashmere always feels lovely in the cold season.

    They look so much better than the original buttons! 👏 🤩

    Love your choice in buttons.

    lol My husband teases me all the time because I’m always changing up buttons! But it can make all the difference! Love your hair 💖

    I bought a few beautiful sweaters but I hate to wear them. To bulky. To hot. They just don’t feel comfortable. I regret buying everyone of them. And they weren’t cheap or even reasonable.

    Great idea. You made a good sweater better.

    Good thinking! It looks great 😃

    Buttons make that so much better!

    Nice seater looks nice on you

    I never buy sweaters...to hot they add 20 pounds...look beautiful lol on hanger...

    Believe in signs? I went thrifting this weekend and my late Dad who collected owls joined me.Image attachmentImage attachment

    Comment on Facebook

    Signs? I always want to believe my son is trying to send one 💔

    Love owls! Because I live on a street, named after owls, I’ve been collecting them since moving here, 34 years ago!

    My mom loved the card you sent!

    How sweet. I was on vacation and found a little pillow that said "I love you a bushel and a peck ", like my Mom used to sing me.

    Dr Lori do you see Roseville Pottery going back up in value? I have approximately 60 pieces that i’m ready to part with.

    Now my son loves owls.

    My mother collected them as well. She had over a hundred in her house. Obsession runs in my family. Lol

    “ I truly believe in Signs”….Yes, Dr. Lori with You😘✝️😘

    My mother loved owls.

    Love this Lori Verderame

    I believe in signs Dr. Lori

    Absolutely believe in signs, I've had several from dear family members in Heaven! 🙏🙏🙏

    My Mom loves owels too...

    I also love owls! And often see little God-wink reminders of both my parents 😉

    My mom collected owls when I was growing up , she’s now 97 , I have one window in my bedroom that has 3 owls, not real, but 3 in my window .

    Yaaaazzzz

    Good morning I totally believe in the signs

    I love owls, Dr Lori!

    I saw a bunch of owls at the Goodwill on Rt8 in Gibsonia this weekend. I love owls and elephants.

    TOTALLY! -In a DR Lori tone. : )

    I do

    Once I was at an antique store and I had been grieving the loss of my Dad. I asked him to send me a sign and I found an identical metal (tin) “dipper” like the one we had growing up that he always drank water from in our kitchen. I definitely believe in signs ✨
