Chicago (AP) -- When it comes to her weight, Oprah Winfrey has always been straightforward. The talk show queen continues the honesty, saying in the January issue of "O" magazine out Tuesday that she now weighs 200 pounds and has "fallen off the wagon" when it comes to healthy living.

I'm sure that this is a very important story, because it's at the top of the AP Newsfeed. I'm just not sure why.

Who cares!!!!

[SmithL]

And since we’re all being open and honest about our weight, I’ll go on the record as weighing more than Oprah.

A laxative will cure her problem ...

[Dr. Ursus]

Oh,Gail,come to bed and bring another gallon of Hagen Daz!

I can hear Michelle Obama laughing out loud.

[SoftwareEngineer]

And I want to go on record saying that Oprah ate my food..

Why hasn’t the “laying of hands” by The One worked?

[ClearCase_guy]

I guess not much is going on in Chicago today. Heck, not much going on in Illinois. I mean, nothing happening at all on the Rezko or Blagojevich stories, so I guess the most interesting thing to talk about would be ... Oprah’s weight.

And that's just the part between her ears.

The world holds its breath as Oprah tells it what she weighs!

Hey, when she sits around the house, she sits around the house!

When she goes to the beach, people try to push her back into the water!

Ok, Ok, I’ll keep my day job.

My word, what a country. One can tell everyone what one weighs, and generate talk from coast to coast.

Oprah weighs two-hundred pounds? ...now that’s what I call a “carbon footprint.”

It's easy to do. I've gone up and down in weight multiple times. You have to weigh yourself regularly, eat right, exercise, and never return to your old eating habits. That's the only plan that works. For many of us, if you want to be thin, you're going to be hungry sometimes.

Hope that Oprah finds a method that works for her.

:::::::::
I hear they make a special laxative for liberals. It is supposed to be very effective. She would end up weighing 85 lbs. and looking anorexic....

[Military family member]

She fell off the wagon and crushed the poor guy leading the horse.

[MeanWestTexan]

Her bloated head weights 200 lbs.

Seriously, this woman is a beast, inside and out.

I hope no one was hurt.

Barack's Health Care Plan will take care of you Oprah!

[MeanWestTexan]

Because The One gets his power from the Dragon.

Read revelations.

Ocra’s doctor said she could use laxative -— she’d melt away into nothing.
