Oprah Winfrey: Two hundred pounds, that is. In a story that I'm sure media mogul Oprah Winfrey hated to write for the January 2009 issue of O Magazine, she admitted to gaining 40 pounds, which puts her total weight at 200. 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?'" Oprah wrote that thyroid problems started the weight gain because her "out of balance" thyroid made her fearful of exercising. Then she started to eat whatever she wanted... and we all know how that ends. We can all relate to gaining unwanted pounds and to have it happen in the public eye makes me shudder. At least Oprah is brave enough to talk about it openly. Photos: Bauer Griffin
