Have YOU got a story? Email Oprah Winfrey said taking weight-loss drugs, like Ozempic and Wegovy, helped her realize the truth about 'thin people.'
She did so while discussing the function and safety of these types of drugs with Dr. Ania Jastreboff on the latest episode of her podcast. Ozempic, Wegovy and other GLP-1 medications can help eradicate food noise — which often leads to overeating and weight gain — by reducing cravings and slowing down digestion.
But now, Winfrey said she realizes that her size did not make her 'less than' others and that she did not deserve that treatment. 'The fact that there's a medically approved prescription for managing weight and staying healthier, in my lifetime, feels like relief, like redemption, like a gift, and not something to hide behind and once again be ridiculed for.
She said undergoing knee surgery in 2021 kickstarted a journey for her to improve her health and live a 'more vital and vibrant life.' She added that her fitness and health routine are integral to maintaining her weight loss saying: 'It's everything. I know everybody thought I was on it, but I worked so damn hard. I know that if I'm not also working out and vigilant about all the other things, it doesn't work for me.'
She said: 'I realized I'd been blaming myself all these years for being overweight, and I have a predisposition that no amount of willpower is going to control. Obesity is a disease. It's not about willpower — it's about the brain. She added: 'If I ate an apple pie at 11 o'clock at night, I would be two pounds heavier in the morning. I can't eat after a certain time.'
