Oprah Winfrey Flaunts Her Weight Loss After Using A GLP-1
The talk show host has been through decades of struggling with her weight, health, and body image, being the target of a lot of fat-shaming media outlets. After years of trying various lifestyle changes and drastic, fad diets, she's finally proudly in a place where she's not only slimmed down, but is maintaining her weight loss.
More recently, she's been opening up a lot more about her usage of GLP-1 for losing her last bit of excess weight and maintaining her weight loss. Though she hasn't revealed exactly which one she's been taking, she's gone on record calling weight loss medications "a gift" for those who have struggled to lose weight despite years of diet and exercise.
"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. "I'm absolutely done with the shaming from other people and particularly myself."
Internet Users Say Oprah Has 'Ozempic Neck'
The one thing that many internet users debate when it comes to Ozempic and other weight loss medications is not just whether or not it's actually healthy for people, but it ends up changing them 'too much' due to the frequent facial transformations.
As people lose drastic amounts of weight at a faster pace, which can happen with GLP-1 medications, their skin can become loose, not just in their abdomens or legs, but also in their faces and necks. After media outlets like The List shared before and after photos of Oprah, emphasizing her weight loss transformation, fans and other users pointed out the loose skin near her neck, writing that she has "Ozempic neck."
These comments became even more apparent as users saw photos and videos of her at events like Paris Fashion Week, where she flaunted her slimmed-down figure.
"She thinks she looks gorgeous, but unfortunately not," commented an Instagram user.
"Something is not right here," added another.
"Wow!" wrote a user. "Unbelievable."
Though these comments tend to get drowned out by loyal fans who support her weight loss and how she got healthier, despite her appearance, it's no secret that some just can't get over how much she's changed.
