As one third of the 90's group Wilson Phillips, Carnie Wilson speaks with Dr. Oz who gets real with her about her weight.
Carnie had undergone some gastric bypass surgery in the past as well as trying numerous diets. As a result, she went from a size 28 to a size 6 and lost 150 pounds. In 2003 she posed nude for Playboy to display her new body. Carnie later toured TV talk shows and hosted her own infomercial to publicize her satisfaction with the procedure. However, she eventually gained back some weight and ended up as a contestant on the fourth season of VH1's Celebrity Fit Club in 2006. Over the course of the show she lost 22 pounds, which she has eventually gained back.
We wish her luck in managing her eating disorder and encourage her to take on a more change of life approach in loosing weight by eating healthy and exercising.

Cowell's Haiti single - Everybody Hurts
Just two weeks after announcing he was to record a charity single to raise funds for earthquake-hit Haiti, pop and television mogul Simon Cowell has delivered.
"Everybody Hurts," received its first airplay in the United Kingdom on Tuesday, blending the voices of veteran popstars Kylie Minogue and Robbie Williams, along with Cowell's more recent signings, Susan Boyle and Leona Lewis.
The single is a cover of the REM classic, originally released on the American band's 1992 album "Automatic for the People."
Friend of slain lottery winner arrested on accessory charges
A Florida woman has been arrested in connection with the death of a lottery millionaire, whose body was found buried under recently added concrete at a home, authorities said.
Dorice Donegan Moore, 37, was arrested Tuesday evening on charges of accessory after the fact regarding a first-degree murder in the death of Abraham Shakespeare, 43, said Hillsborough County Sheriff David Gee.
Moore befriended Shakespeare after he won a $31 million Florida lottery prize in 2006 and was named a person of interest in the case after Shakespeare went missing, authorities said.
Before her arrest, Moore proclaimed her innocence during a tearful, impromptu news conference outside her home. She said was planning to help Shakespeare write a book about the challenges of winning millions and that she was helping him manage the money.
Shakespeare was killed on April 6 or April 7, and Moore has admitted trying to convince Shakespeare's family members that he was still alive, Gee said.
"In December 2009, Dorice Moore wrote a letter to the victim's mother, claiming to be the victim and to be all right," Gee said. "Dorice Moore also used the victim's cell phone and sent text messages to the victim's family."
Deputies found Shakespeare's body outside a home in Plant City late January after receiving a tip from an associate of Moore

Fashion comes to the 'Jersey Shore'?
Can you imagine Anna Wintour sitting front-row next to "Jersey Shore" bimbo Jenni "JWoww" Farley at Fashion Week?
It could happen -- fashion insiders are buzzing that "Jersey Shore" cast members are demanding tickets to shows during Fashion Week, which starts Feb. 11. And one of their managers claims the designers are actually reaching out to them.
That means the MTV reality stars, including JWoww, Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi, Sammi "Sweetheart" Giancola, Paul "DJ Pauly D" Delvecchio, Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino, Ronnie Ortis-Magro and Vinnie Guadagnino could be plopping down beside fashion's elite and A-list stars.

Jersey Shores Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino and Jenni "Jwoww" Farley
Michael Schweiger, who manages all the cast members except Polizzi, says at least three designers have actually approached them -- particularly Farley and Giancola -- to attend or even model in some of the Bryant Park runway shows.
Some fear that buzz over the "Jersey Shore" stars could take the focus away from the collections. Last February, Ashley Dupre became the event's biggest story when she turned up in the front row at Yigal Azrouel's show. "Every level of pop culture has come to Fashion Week," said celebrity stylist Mary Alice Stephenson.
If the "Jersey" stars do make the Fashion Week rounds, some insiders are urging them to bring their signature style to the tents. "They should dress exactly the way they always do and not change a hair or hair gel or tone down the tan," said Allure's editor-in-chief, Linda Wells.
"They're perfect as is."
Others disagreed, saying they should smarten up their act. "If they're going to a designer's show, the nicest thing they can do is wear the designer's clothes," said Paul Wilmot, who reps Tommy Hilfiger and Oscar de la Renta. "No wife-beaters, no baggy jeans. Dress up and act like ladies and gentlemen. And invest in a good haircut."
