Oprah Flaunts Her Weight Loss While Promoting Her Podcast In A Gray Sweater Set

If there's one thing to know about The Color Purple actress, it's that she's still busy and working away on all of her projects, like her podcast and book club. However, there's still a lot of attention being paid to her recent transformation.

 

At the end of March, Oprah began posting about one of her latest podcast guests, Belle Burden, who wrote the memoir, Strangers. The story, which the talk show host wrote, "captured the attention of women everywhere," follows Belle's socialite marriage that began as seemingly perfect, but abruptly ended after 20 years, after receiving "a phone call that shatters everything."

 

On Instagram, Oprah took to her accounts to post videos about why she loves the book and clips of her chatting with Belle. She was wearing a gray, chic yet cozy-looking sweater set with long sleeves and gold buttons. Her hair was straightened and tied into a side ponytail, and she had on a pair of oversized glasses with circular frames.

Fans React To Oprah's Weight Loss & Podcasting Outfit

After pictures and videos of the 72-year-old in her gray outfit were shared on Instagram, there was a lot of discourse surrounding the marriage-related memoir in the comments. However, there was also a lot of commentary on how great she looks these days.

 

Oprah has opened up about facing public scrutiny for her weight for much of her career, and has been gradually working on losing weight in a healthy, sustainable way. After being a spokesperson for programs like Weight Watchers, she finally found stability in healthy yet simple lifestyle habits like exercise and balanced eating. However, she also admitted to using a GLP-1 medication to not only shed some excess pounds, but also control her appetite and "food noise," calling it a "gift" in various interviews.

 

Whatever she's doing, it's clearly working, and fans are continuing to point out how much she's changed over the years.

 

"Oprah looks incredible!" commented a fan on Instagram, as another added that she "looks amazing."

 

"She looks younger," added another.
