Oprah Winfrey looks unrecognizable as she flaunts toned body after years of struggling with her weight

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Oprah Winfrey appears to be in good health.

In a recent Instagram photo, the TV host and philanthropist showcased her toned physique in support of a book she had just finished reading.

Winfrey accentuated her figure with a high-waisted pair of pants and a clean white top. She was also seen holding a book called 'Black Cake', which she has executive produced into a television series, as reported by Amomama.

Winfrey has often talked about her weight loss journey

Winfrey talked about her journey to lose more than forty pounds in 2016. She then maintained that she could eat anything she wanted even though she was actively trying to lose weight.

Seven years later in 2023, Winfrey had an open discussion with a few other women about her battles with obesity and weight. She disclosed that she had been shamed for her weight for twenty-five years.

Although Winfrey believed that she should change her weight, she lacked the willpower to take action. She did, however, receive assurances during her panel speech that "willpower" was unrelated to her body's ability to control her weight.

Even if a person is Oprah Winfrey, the TV personality claimed that people tend to treat those who weigh more than 200 pounds with a certain amount of contempt.

She recalled an incident in which she entered a store, and upon discovering that nothing fit her, she was directed to the handbag and glove sections.

Oprah was even verbal about the exploitation she faced due to her weight, "You all know I've been on this journey for most of my life. 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," as reported by Today.

In the end, Winfrey surrounded herself with family and friends who encouraged her while she tried to get into the best shape possible. She worked hard and is now leading the greatest life possible.
