Oprah Winfrey admits she’s fallen off the dieting wagon, weighs 200lbs
Oprah Winfrey has admitted she’s “fallen off the wagon” when it comes to healthy eating and she now weighs 200 pounds (14stone 4lbs).
Writing in her new issue of O magazine, she said: “I’m mad at myself… I’m embarrassed… I can’t believe that after all these years, all the things I know how to do, I’m still talking about my weight. I look at my thinner self and think, ‘How did I let this happen again?’”
She explained that her problems began when she was diagnosed with a thyroid imbalance last year and it gave her a “a fear of working out”: “I was so frustrated I started eating whatever I wanted - and that’s never good.
“When it comes to maintaining my health I didn’t just fall off the wagon. I let the wagon fall on me. I didn’t follow my own fundamental rule of taking care of self first.”
She added the weight gain means she’s had to start looking for a new gown for President-elect Barack Obama’s inaugural ball next month: “I had a dress on the vision board, but I’m not sure that’s gonna fit. So I have to work on something else.”
