I knew you were a white clothes girl!! We can do one or the other but no one looks good in both.
You look great in white for sure! Oprah Winfrey said you can wear white on TV.. lol 🙂
You look great in that Ralph Lauren sweater....with your dark hair and a makeup you can wear white or off white....wear black or deep purple bottom....as you have your nails in lilac.....and throw on a neck scarf with cream...white ...lilac...and color of your bottom slacks or skirt....you'll look gorgeous!!

Thinking about summer trips? I need to visit Hawaii, Montana, North Dakota, Utah, Wyoming to make all 50 states. ... See MoreSee Less
Utah got the best thrifting, di is unbeatable Lemme know when and I’ll give you a tour of em all 😏😏 Nothing in Wyoming except the trunk and the Tetons
Lucky you!
I got to go on a roadtrip with my son to complete his 50. Montana. Same trip we traveled up to British Colombia. He had never been to Canada. It was so much fun for me to experience the excitement with him.
I'll have to go to Ohio to find it I guess 😀😃
Idaho isn't on your list...🥲
Amherstburg Ontario wants you!! Historic (Underground railroad, War of 1812) and quaint, but growing!😄😄😄🧐🧐🧐
Hawaii gets very hot and humid in the late summer, so if going, I would go sooner rather than later.
Hello Texas?? 🤗🥰
Go to Hawaii! They have swimming pools! 🙂
you gotta go to Hawaii, it's 80 degrees year around. Go to a luau. Watch the sunrises and sunsets. It's just beautiful
Just came back from Michigan Then went to Kentucky for a funeral...Lots of people on the road be careful Dr. LORI 🙃
And West Tennessee!
Hello from Georgia! I'm so glad I found you on YouTube. We have a lot of sales in our area and I've learned a lot from you. Thank you so much for what you do.
I live in Northwest WY near Yellowstone. Lots of amazing places to see here! 🦬

Grocery shopping: the first two pics are what I crave. The second two pics are what I bought. #diet #shopping ... See MoreSee Less
Great choices and love your purple nails!
I love Cape Cod chips!!!
Great choices Dr Lori !! You’ve got this ! i love all the junk too but it’s faux fuel. You chose hi grade octane for your body !! You deserve the best fuel !
Yeah, it's sad when I crave a snack and go to the kitchen and all I have is healthy stuff. But I get over it...until the next day when it happens again...
Stay true!
Good girl!
Potato chips contain a lot of potassium! And good fats are brain food! ❤️❤️❤️
I don't like the chips. Must have oreos. Love grapes.
There it is, the phase where you can pick the better for you & feel proud!, Love the nail color also! xo
Dr Dr. Lori, have you ever tried those grapes that taste like cotton candy? Best of both worlds lol!
You're a better woman than I! I got my milk chocolate Lindor Truffles today!
Good job, you’re doing better than me! I got cupcakes and sun chips yesterday!
If you don’t bring it home, it can’t tempt you.
Potato chips are the best I need a whole bag by the time I leave the grocery store till I get home it also takes me like 30 minutes to get home 😃
I feel ya!!
I need your willpower!!!
Have you tried the zero sugar Oreos? They’re delicious!
I am on freeze dried banana's dried apricots, cherries and cranberries. One prune per night.
Working on getting A1C down sooo Grapes for me
I'm right there with you, Dr. Lori. 😂
Good girl! Always eat before you grocery shop, it makes a world of difference in how much you spend and what you buy! 😎
If you get the chips one day, just get the regular, have a little bowlful and throw the rest away. Forget the low fat. That’s just me.
Oreo cookie ice cream sandwich yum dip in dark chocolate that is definitely a Saturday treat.
You’re looking good!
Good choice, each time it gets easier

Dr. Lori you look beautiful! That scarf and navy blue are so flattering with your skin tone 🤩🤩🤩
This may not be the right place for this. First you look fantastic. That style and those colors show how lovely you truly are. Second, The swelling in your lower legs, and I assume feet caught my attention. NOTE: I AM NOT A MEDICAL PERSON, but it might be a good idea to consult a cardiologist.
😍 looking good ...
