I couldn’t help but do a double-take when I recently saw a photo and an article about Oprah’s recent weight loss – she looks incredible! According to CNN, she has a new secret weapon and it’s one we can all relate to, “Winfrey has lost 30 pounds and reportedly recently told a few fellow Weight Watchers members that having a weight loss buddy has made all the difference.”
It’s so true! Having someone to get in shape with really does make all the difference – you can rely on and motivate one another to hit the gym, eat right and really get down to business. On those cloudy days when you just don’t feel like heading out on a run or when you’re thinking of breaking your diet – having that buddy you can reach out to is often a lifesaver – even for Oprah!

With the help of being both a business investment and a client, Oprah has turned to Weight Watchers to help her get eating right on track. And, according to ABC, Winfrey hopped on a call with six fellow members (with “Good Morning America” listening in) to swap tips and inspiration. She told the group that life partner Stedman Graham has also become her Weight Watchers partner.
“He kept asking me what every point was, and I said, ‘Why don’t you just join?'” she reportedly said during the call. “For me, it’s so much better when other people are also counting points.” (via CNN)

I am thrilled for Oprah – she looks amazing, happy and like she’s really figured out a way to maintain a healthy lifestyle that works for her. That’s tough work – and many of us struggle with finding our groove when it comes to weight loss and exercise. High-fives to Oprah for looking and feeling great!
