tl;dr bits
- Oprah isn’t ashamed of using weight-loss meds like Wegovy or Ozempic. She sees them as part of a holistic approach, not a quick fix.
- She’s also focusing on exercise, diet, and staying vigilant about her health. She works hard to maintain her progress.
- Goal Weight? Her target is 160 lbs., but she says it’s not just about the number—it’s about feeling better and being able to do things she couldn’t before.
- Last year, she gained 8 pounds during the holidays. This year, with the help of meds, she only gained half a pound. She calls it a “quieting” of food cravings.
- After years of self-blame and societal judgment, Oprah is clear: Obesity isn’t about willpower—it’s a disease. And she’s not going to let anyone shame her for that anymore.
