Oh honey, you could wear war paint and a flower sack and you'd still be beautiful ❤️
Cute earrings
I love Tuesdays on PTL because it’s Dr. Lori day!
You are a beautiful person inside and out.......love
See you a 9am on PTL
You look good Lori.
You always look beautiful!
Love the color of your sweater!
Do you do your own makeup? Here's the solution...hire a makeup artist! C'mon - why not! You deserve it and work hard enough to hire one. 🙂 I would! 😉
Do use a primer? I’m trying to watch what chemicals are getting in my body, so I switched to clean beauty. I use RMS Beauty Cosmetics and Skincare. RMS has a great primer. I wait to buy my cosmetics when they have 30% off.
Get a make-up application brush for a smoother look. Use a good moisturizer and skin prep cream under the make-up for even coverage. A lite dusting of blush. Glam up a little, eyeliner on bottom lid along lash line, a soft brown and some tubing mascara. A little shape and color on your brows
Using a beauty blender sponge would give you a much smoother look and more coverage, my friend!
Burgundy good for you
Under eyebrows between eyes is very white compared to the rest. Love you
Gorgeous! And I love the hair!!
Purple is definitely your color & the gold perfectly warms it. ❤️
That colored sweater looks wonderful on you.
Looks great Dr Lori
That plum color is fantastic on you.
Gorgeous-Armani is the best 👌
I watched you before I seen this video you are always beautiful and smart and I love learning from you
Try Luxe, my new fav.
I like it but you always look great!
Saw you on PTL...you always make my day!!
Love you the way you are.

It’s not sexy but it’s working. #weight ... See MoreSee Less
It’s working!
I would make that too.
You’re an inspiration, Lori.
Very proud of you !! You are doing all the work !! 👏👏🎊🥰
I HATE most vegetables, unless they are cooked and on top of a pizza. 😁
I don't like all of it but it does look good.
That looks yummy! I am having a HARD time with not using salt or butter.
Your eating all the colors! So great for you!
Cooking can be incredibly sexy! It’s creating, blending colors, flavors and textures. It’s can be a sensorial experience. So is prioritizing yourself! Give yourself credit where credit is due. Patterned behavior change is challenging, and you’re mastering it!
Excellent to ea a lot of various colored vehetables as they supply vitamins and fiber but you need protein and a bit of carbs to balnce it out. If you have leftover cooked veg you could make a crustless Quich by adding some eggs, cheeseand a bit of milk and baking in a casserole or pie dish.
Great. Use pepper and herbs no salt❤️
I got to start somewhere. That look delicious!
Your looking Fantastic 🌟
Your doing a great job. Keep up all of your great work.
That looks delicious and you look great. Please don't skimp on the Protein. Your muscles need it. Lose fat, not muscle. Keep up the great work.

#shopping again. I look better in true white—bright white—than off white. And there’s a twist at the end. Wait for it. ... See MoreSee Less
Dr. Lori, 'Wearing white' after Labor Day?! 😂
Looking good! No but tell them to give you more money off. Lol
You look stunning! The security thing stayed on a dress I bought. Traveled with it to Tennessee for a wedding. Never noticed it until the wedding! Had to leave it on the entire day! It was a good conversation piece!!!
Try darker colored tops with maybe jewelry in brighter colors. The white and black chop us up…so we look shorter. You’re amazing.
I am sure you are a winter. I look better in the off white and creams. I'm a fall.
Been there , done that. I only think it was once. It’s a major inconvenience.Did you ever contemplate getting a tall in your clothes. My clothes always hit me too short around my waist in hips. I bought a tall in women’s more than once, they fit perfectly:)
Love the first cardigan . Very modern and fresh. White is good too .
Looks great on you, bummer about the security tag. Ugh.
Pretty! I liked the cardigan as well!
Ask for a good discount!
I actually love the cardigan on you. Just sayin’. When you take your sweater to get the tag off, you could also pick up the cardi!
Dr Lori, you look great in white, a very nice new look for you since you have lost so much weight!!! I like the blouse you picked but also really liked ke the first one as well🤩🤩
Oh no. Another trip back. I hate when that happens. Hope other than that, you have a great weekend ❤️
The one you picked is very cute and I like the length longer then some of them. You look good in white. 😊❤️
I hate when they leave the security tag! That's a beautiful sweater! ❤️
That has happened to me. Frustrating!
You look amazing!
I like it. It looks really good on you.
Too cute!
Always you are looking quite lovely Dr Lori. Nice with your dk hair. Have a Blessed day!
Oh no, but you look so nice.
Yes happens so often.
Nailed it!
You look really good in white! I liked the cardigan one best. That collar looks good!!
I like the white button down sweater the best. It's the most flattering and attractive.

I’m so happy to see that Audrey’s blanket arrived. Her dads tell me she likes it. Maybe it will accessorize one of her six dog beds at her house. Hug a rescue pet today. Ross Mathews #petcrafts ... See MoreSee Less
That’s so lovely Dr. Lori!
We lost our Argentine Mastiff Dogo a year ago. She was the sweetest girl.
Sweetie pie
The blanket is so so cute! Audrey looks like she loves it.
Little Audrey has a wonderful Aunt!!!!!
Beautiful blanket and what a sweet puppy!
My rescue gets and gives hugs every day! Rescues are the best!
It's so nice that you do this for the pets, they love the cozy blankets.
So adorable!❤️Love the blanket
My famous Darbi McGowan !
❤️ so precious. Love Audrey and her new blanket ❤️
I hug a rescue pet every day!! My Trixie girl & parrot are both rescues. They rescued me more than I did them.
Our rescued “foster fail” (meaning I foster lots of high needs dogs, but we fell in love with her entirely specific quirkiness and wound up keeping her) Midge has a wealth of blankets that I crocheted for her too! If I lived nearby, I’dask your pal Ross if Midge and Audrey would like to meet up: both Chi’s, and both named after beautiful fashion mavens!
Omagosh!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
