Oprah Winfrey<\/a> is opening up about her weight-loss journey.<\/p>\n

During a recent interview with People magazine<\/a>, the 71-year-old television personality discussed her new book, “Enough,” which she co-wrote with obesity expert Dr. Ania M. Jastreboff, which details her journey with obesity, saying “I feel more alive and more vibrant than I\u2019ve ever been.”<\/p>\n

“I feel like I have more to give to everybody. I\u2019m just more open to all,” she said. “I was a big fan of tequila. I literally had 17 shots one night…I haven\u2019t had a drink in years. The fact that I no longer even have a desire for it is pretty amazing.”<\/p>\n

The former talk show host began taking GLP-1 weight loss medication over two years ago, when she realized her lifelong struggle with her weight was due to obesity, a word she “avoided” before.<\/p>\n

OBESITY EXPERT REVEALS THE BEST WAY TO DECIDE IF GLP-1S ARE RIGHT FOR YOU<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Her epiphany came in 2023 when she hosted a special featuring experts on obesity, saying filming the special helped her realize that “overeating doesn\u2019t cause obesity. Obesity causes overeating,” calling that moment “the most mind-blowing, freeing thing I\u2019ve experienced as an adult.”<\/p>\n

“If you have obesity in your gene pool, I want people to know it\u2019s not your fault,” Winfrey said. “I want people to stop blaming yourself for genes and an environment you can\u2019t control. I want people to have the information, whatever you choose to do with it, whether you get the medications, or whether you want to keep dieting.”<\/p>\n

After starting the GLP-1 medication, Winfrey feels like “everything is just calmer and stronger” by helping her “manage the messages that are being sent to your brain about overeating.”<\/p>\n

Without the constant messaging about food, the “A Wrinkle in Time<\/a>” star said she has been given “a quiet strength that comes with everything I do.”<\/p>\n

Winfrey discussed her struggles with losing weight, and the media’s obsession with her size during a March 2024 ABC special, called “An Oprah Special: Shame, Blame and the Weight Loss Revolution.”<\/p>\n

During the special, she admitted she once starved herself on a liquid diet “in an effort to combat the shame” for nearly five months in 1988 “and then wheeled out that wagon of fat [on her show] that the internet will never let me forget and after losing 67 pounds on a liquid diet, next day, y\u2019all, the very next day, I started to gain it back.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

She later added that it’s “wrong to be shaming people<\/a>” with obesity if you don’t struggle with it, because it’s hard to truly understand what the person is dealing with.<\/p>\n

“All these years, I thought all of the people who never had to diet were just using their willpower and they were for some reason stronger than me, and now I realize y’all weren’t even thinking about the food. It’s not that you had the willpower. You weren’t thinking about it. You weren’t obsessing about it. That is the big thing I learned.”<\/p>\n
