We know Oprah, we know

Oprah Winfrey continues to fight the battle of the bulge but finds herself in full retreat right now. For a while there back in 2006, Oprah was at her “ideal weight” thanks to her team of personal trainers, chefs, … and actually pretty much starving herself.  Oprah famously wheeled a wagon loaded with fat onto the set of her talk show once to represent a 67-pound weight loss, sadly there’s sill a caboose following ‘behind her’ now. Oprah says she’s fallen off that wagon again and weighs in now at 200lbs. Her BMI is 31.8 which is considered obese by Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

In the January issue of O Magazine she writes, “I’m mad at myself. I’m embarrassed. I can’t believe that after all these years, all the things I know how to do, I’m still talking about my weight. I look at my thinner self and think, ‘How did I let this happen again?’”

Oprah went on to say that she gained 60 pounds in 2 years because an out-of-balance thyroid condition made her ‘scared of working out’. She said she knew things had to change when she almost missed a taping with Cher and Tina Turner, because she felt like a “fat cow.”

Oprah is now ready to take action again so during the week of January 5th, she will dedicate her show to talk about healthy living. Perhaps doing the show while walking on a treadmill might be even a better idea?
