Talking about weight issues, have you guys notice Oprah Winfrey has piled back the pounds she lost over the years?
 Don't worry Oprah... big is beautiful No, the talk show queen is not stuffing herself silly. Oprah revealed the reason she recently gained 20 pounds is due to her thyroid (a gland that regulates metabolism). "I literally blew out my thyroid," she said. That led to lethargy and weight gain. Oprah blames stress and overwork for her condition.
Oprah is under even more stress with the allegations of sexual and physical abuse at her school in South Africa. According to a South African news site, Oprah is visibly distraught at reports that some of the students had been abused by a school matron.
"I've disappointed you. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry," Oprah was quoted as telling the families of the students. She also distributed her personal phone number and email address to students and promised parents to do all in her power to punish the abusers. |
