Oprah's Fat Again!

So Oprah Winfrey is now saying she's embarrassed because she's ballooned back up to 200lbs. Well, she should be embarrassed. I would have given her credit for admitting that she was wolfing down food like Chris Farley at Hometown Buffet. But then she countered this by saying her thyroid condition was a major factor in her weight gain. How come every time a woman gets fat, she all of a sudden has a thyroid condition?

Look, Oprah simply has the body of a big girl. She's fat. It's her body's more comfortable state. When she is skinnier, you can always tell she's just going to pile it all back on again. Notwithstanding TV Guide's wonderful job of pasting Oprah's head on Ann Margaret's body, Oprah always looks weird when she tries to get skinny. Unfortunately for her, she's just fat.

Also unfortunate is that she cannot accept that she fat so she's taken her viewers and readers on her journeys with yo-yo diets, fad exercise routines, and a parade of pictures that look like they were taken with funhouse mirrors. While Oprah can do whatever she wants to herself, I think her out of control lifestyle is incredibly harmful to her so-called fans. She is not a role model for healthy living. She gets a bug up her butt, loses some weight, and then eventually loses control and gains it all back. If you ask me, it's a symptom of a much deeper problem that fame and wealth have apparently not been able to compensate for.

Personally, I think it's just a little bit of karma for putting her big, fat head on the cover of every issue of that appallingly bad magazine she publishes.
