THESE CELEBRITY HEAVYWEIGHTS DROPPED THE POUNDS AND NOW FEEL FABULOUS
Despite the proliferation of body positive and self-love posts on social media, it is still a grim reality that much of society gauges a person’s worth on his or her weight. This is especially true for celebrities who are constantly in the limelight as they often come under fire when they so much as gain a pound. We can’t blame them, therefore, why they go through extremes in the name of weight loss; from fad diets to even drastic cosmetic surgery, these stars have done it all in the name of public and media acceptance. Indeed, until the majority of the public starts embracing a more open-minded, encompassing, and accepting view of weight, the whole movement behind body positivity remains no more than lip service.
Oprah Winfrey – ~80 pounds lost
Oprah Winfrey is the queen of talk, but also the queen of weight fluctuations. In fact, being so visible to the public eye, we have all been witness to her yo-yoing weight over the years. Most recently, however, Oprah has been consistent in keeping her weight at a healthy 160 pounds—80 pounds less than her heaviest. This is all thanks to a killer and effective diet and a real desire to stay healthy. Definitely, Oprah is the inspiration most of us didn’t know we needed.
