On Tuesday, Oprah took to Instagram to share a self-portrait for her book club and, in doing so, showed off her slimmed down physique.

She posed in a colourful, V-neck blouse paired with leather trousers as she held a copy of Elizabeth Gilbert’s memoir All the Way to the River.

She also turned off her comments amid fan discourse about her usage of weight loss medication, the name of which she has not yet disclosed.

The talk show host’s admission was heavily criticised at the time as she had previously slammed using GLP-1 drugs, type-2 diabetes medication that also aids in weight loss. 

She dropped approximately 50 pounds with the help of the weight loss medication. 

Her admission received criticism as she once referred to the doctor-prescribed medication as an ‘easy way out’ and denied using the drug for weight loss following years of yo-yo dieting. 

In December 2023, the host, who had been dogged by rumours she was using medical weight loss aids for years, finally came clean as she was ‘done with the shaming.’

She told People: ‘I now use it as I feel I need it, as a tool to manage not yo-yoing.

The actress added: ‘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. 

‘I’m absolutely done with the shaming from other people and particularly myself,’ she continued before adding she had actively recommended the weight loss aid to other people before deciding to take it herself. 

The former TV host was previously an avid supporter of WeightWatchers, speaking out about the company in 2015 and announcing that she had acquired a 10% stake.

She also attributed 26 pounds of her weight loss to their points-based diet program, but she stepped down from the WeightWatchers board nearly a decade later when she revealed she had been using a doctor-prescribed GLP-1 medication.

She explained that her health journey first began in 2021 following a getting surgery on her knee. 

‘After knee surgery, I started hiking and setting new distance goals each week,’ she explained.

She had been yo-yo dieting and decided to change her approach in July 2023.

While hosting a recorded panel with medical experts on obesity and weight loss as part of Oprah Daily’s The Life You Want series, titled The State of Weight, she opened up about her weight loss journey.

‘You all know I’ve been on this journey for most of my life,’ she told the audience. ‘My highest weight was 237 pounds. 

‘I don’t know if there is another public person whose weight struggle has been exploited as much as mine over the years.’
