The journey to Oprah’s current state of health and fitness has been a public one, with her sharing the ups and downs over the years. She opened up about her weight struggles in a panel discussion called “The Life You Want Class: The State of Weight,” sharing the emotional and physical challenges she faced at her heaviest weight of 237 pounds. Oprah has also partnered with Weight Watchers since 2015, which she credits for helping her in her weight loss journey.
However, she has steered clear of weight-loss medications, opting for a more natural approach to her health. She believes in the value of achieving wellness through personal effort and has expressed skepticism about the “easy way out” offered by drugs. “When I first started hearing about the weight-loss drugs, I thought, ‘I need to do this on my own,'” Oprah explained.
Her determination to manage her weight independently is part of what many admire about Oprah. She continues to influence others by sharing her health journey, demonstrating the importance of self-care and personal agency in achieving wellness goals.
