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.

[Ahithophel]

Uh, well, part of her is 200 lbs.

[AppyPappy]

Oh yeah. I weigh 200 lbs as well. We have something in common

[Polynikes]

She's so fat she when she goes to the beach Greenpeace keeps trying to push her back into the water

[Grampa Dave]

She needs a fat bailout fund her master, the Zer0 0re0.

[KosmicKitty]

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.

Because BO's friends are in trouble. Must detract the unwashed masses with more "important" news!

[exit82]

How would she know? She can’t even see the scale.

[spectre]

Oprah is a gazillionaire and yet the three things in life she can't really accomplish are:

1. She isn't skinny.

2. She doesn't have a husband

3. She doesn't have her own children to leave all that money to.

200 pounds!? Oprah’s ego weighs more that that!

[gathersnomoss]

“3. She doesn't have her own children to leave all that money to.”

Okra can leave her bucks with the Keebler Elves.

[gathersnomoss]

“3. She doesn't have her own children to leave all that money to.”

I understand Oprah gets along quite will with the Frank Purdue family. She could leave her money to the Purdue Grandchildren Fund! /sarc... See gorilla...

“3. She doesn't have her own children to leave all that money to.”

I understand Oprah gets along quite will with the Frank Perdue family. She could leave her money to the Purdue Grandchildren Fund! /sarc See gorilla...

[Clintons Are White Trash]

You could not be more wrong.
The DS saved my life and I love it. Lazy and undisciplined? You have no clue whatsoever. Being morbidly obese is not a choice anyone makes and to try to throw the bandaid of “less food and more exercise” is like telling an alcoholic “well just stop drinking”.

I was very educated before I made my choice knowing the ramifications if I did not follow through with the supplements. After 3 years, my blood work is great - I take 2 Centrums a day and calcium and some extra D. Not exactly a big list and certainly worth the effort.

Given the choice, I would do it again every single year if necessary. From a size 24 to a size 8 - no high blood pressure, no high cholesterol, no joint issues - I have my life back!!

[peace with honor]

LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Sarah Barracuda]

See, this is EXACTLY why Sarah did not want to do that interview with Oprah. Can you all imagine how many mooses would have to die in order to feed Oprah. they would have had to declare a Moose Emergency in Alaska. Also imagine how much moose chili it would take to feed that beast. Good God Sarah would have had to cook for days.
This is TOO great, all these libs are going down in flames. One by one, Karma is freakin GREAT isn’t it

[RightWhale]

I also weigh 200 pounds. This is equally worthy of an AP newsflash.

[Melas]

I was insulin resistant as well. I lost 40 pounds, upped my exercise to 5 days a week, changed my diet, and my sugars have been normal ever since.

If you’re still gaining weight at 1800 calories a day, eat 1400. At one time I was consuming only 900 calories a day until I reached a pancreas friendly weight.

[beaversmom]

now that’s what I call a “carbon footprint.”

That's a good point. I thought "That One" said we couldn't just eat what we want any more!

[voteNRA]

She’s so fat when she goes camping the bears hide THEIR food!

[Charles Henrickson]

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

Reminds me of a little something I wrote during the primaries:

HELLO DADDY, HELLO MAMA (A Letter from Camp Obama)
Tune: "Hello Muddah, Hello Fadduh (A Letter from Camp)" Original

Hello Daddy
Hello Mama
Here I am at
Camp Obama
Camp's as pretty
As a painting
And they say we'll have some fun if we stop fainting

Our Barack has
Gifts of healing
Stevie Wonder's
Out four-wheeling
I met Oprah
Over dinner
Since she's been here she's got thirteen inches thinner

All the campers
Drink the Kool-Aid
That the counselors
At the school made
This is change we
Can believe in
'Cause the campers who come in here won't be leavin'

Now I just thought
I should buy ya
A small bust of
Our Messiah
You can put it
On your dashboard
It will guide and guard your car so it won't crash more

Yes we can!
Oh Daddy, Mama!
Yes we can!
I love Obama!
Don't tell me
I ought to find out facts
Of how
He plans to spend and tax

Yes we can!
I promise he will
Heal the holes
That cause the problems
In our souls
Oh please don't make me say
Just how--
He'll find a way

Got to stop now
Looks like we're through
Camp Obama
Has a curfew
Every day it's
Early rising
After "Washing of the Brains" it's "Plagiarizing"

Wait a minute
What's this gabbin'
Two new campers
In our cabin
See their nametags
Read the printin'
Seems the campers' names are Bill and Chelsea Clinton!

“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.”

God Almighty, are you me??? I also find just getting out of the house, working outside, getting my nails or hair done, etc., will take my mind off food when I’m hungry but know it’s not time for a meal.
