Word! Plus it's not like she's 40 stone and an operation is her last chance of survival.

O.K, Oprah is 5'7" so am I. I weigh 227 and look bigger than Oprah. Her boobs and legs are big, her waist is not. She needs to stop going up and down the scale. I am usually 190-210. I have worn the same clothes for years. I stopped the diet merry-go-round when I was 45. I came to the realization I was going to be big. I swim 3 mornings a week at the Y, and use weights 2 days a week. Since I went on certain medications I gained 25 pounds in 3 months. I am off them now and my weight is going back down. I haven't weighed myself, just go by my clothes. My doctor would like to see me thinner of course but my blood pressure is good, my cholesterol is excellent and I exercise. That is what is important.

i personally dont think oprah will ever be a size 10 or necessarily should be, yes she's just a thicker type person like some of you said some ppl just are meant to be, but I have totally noticed her size being way too big lately.

I can deal with the food issue not the I am Jesus issue.

it's hard to get fat off of crackers and fish especially if your feeding someone other than yourself, Oprah likes the country cooking.

Jesus could have been richer than Oprah but he didn't sell out.

If that's her vice, she's not doing too bad.

Food is also my vice. Thank God for my genes. I should be a whale, but I weigh 115 lbs, 120 tops.

A friend of my Mom's got gastic bypass surgery done, and she is still overweight. It's not a cure all. You need diet and exercise to reduce your weight.

I'm sick of Oprah. She's fat, her cult followers need to accept that and move on. Fatty McFatass.

**KristiB** · December 9th, 2008, 08:34 PM

I was gonna say both those are photoshopped.

I bet if she let go of her obsession and just ate normal portions of non processed food and exercised she'd get down to a nice weight. Not a six or even a ten but she'd be healthy. Dieting is a recipe for sabotage. New year new diet new failure...count on it.

Oh I agree. I'm not saying she should do it; I'm just wondering why she hasn't as she seems to have tried everything else at one point or another.

**Folieadeux** · December 9th, 2008, 09:49 PM

How long is she going to go about her weight for?

Book yourself in and have banding or a gastric bypass done already

I don't know if Oprah is genetically destined to be a bigger person at all. I'd say for the absolute majority of the overweight and obese, the food they choose to eat is their number one issue and anything else is an excuse. If she ate healthy while exercising, she wouldn't be weighing over 200LBS - that goes for the majority of the overweight and obese. She just loves her food and if she's going to be fat, be fat. Don't keep the yo-yo ego/pity party going.

**potato_chips** · December 9th, 2008, 10:58 PM

With ALL that money, couldn't she hire someone to buy her the right food, cook for her, and motivate her to exercise!?!? Get Richard Simmons on the phone right now!!!!!!!!

**olivia720** · December 9th, 2008, 10:59 PM

This pic is a freaking joke! As if she ever looked like that!!
I would be DAMN embarrassed to allow a sham pic like get published.

Like you give a shit about her health

Richard Simmons would be a good idea, he'd put me off eating ever again
