Oprah Winfrey Films A New Podcast Episode In A Silky Coral Pantsuit
It's no secret that the 71-year-old celebrity wears many hats when it comes to being in the media, and now that she no longer hosts the Oprah Winfrey Show, in addition to making content for her infamous book club, she is a podcast host. Many fans have come to love The Oprah Podcast, where she'll interview fellow celebrities as well as experts in various fields, making it super educational.
This week, she interviewed Adam Alter, a marketing expert, author, and college professor who is still making waves with one of his latest book releases, Irresistible: The Rise of Addictive Technology and the Business of Keeping Us Hooked, which explores the relationships between humans and technology and how easy it is for us to become addicted to our devices. As she asked Adam questions about technology addiction and how it's impacting younger generations, Oprah wore an eye-catching, bright, coral-colored pantsuit that was perfect for the transition from the summer into autumn.
The suit consisted of a coordinating blazer and pants, and she wore a matching, silky, long-sleeved blouse underneath. She wore her long, dark hair down in waves and paired her outfit with some black boots. More notably, the pantsuit, which was slightly cinched at the waist, allowed her to flaunt her most recent impressive weight loss.
Oprah Has Reportedly Lost 40 Pounds After Admitting To Using Weight Loss Medication
The television producer has always been known as a larger woman, and for decades, she opened up about her struggles with trying to stay lean and lose excess pounds that she truly struggled to shed. For a while, she was even an ambassador for Weight Watchers, an infamous nutrition program that she claimed helped her lose a solid amount of weight.
But afterward, there were still more pounds she wanted to lose, but couldn't, which led to her being prescribed a GLP-1 medication, although she has not clarified which one she's tried.
"One of the things that I realized the very first time I took a GLP-1 was that all these years I thought that thin people just had more willpower, they ate better foods, they were able to stick to it longer, they never had a potato chip, and then I realized the very first time I took the GLP-1 that, 'Oh, they're not even thinking about it,'" she admitted on an episode of her podcast. "They're only eating when they're hungry, and they're stopping when they're full."
Now that she's recently lost around 42 pounds, she's clarified that she no longer takes a GLP-1 every day, but is able to do some spot treatment with it, and only uses it when she feels herself falling off her healthy eating and exercise bandwagon.
"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 told People in 2023. "I'm absolutely done with the shaming from other people and particularly myself."
