Why do you think Oprah continues to be heavy even with her trainer Bob Greene?!
Question: Why do you think Oprah continues to be heavy even with her trainer Bob Greene!?
She has all the money ever needed to have the best chef to prepare foods that are great tasting, yet fat free, and has her very own personal trainer!. So why do you think she continues to go up and down with her weight and do you think she should be advertising weight loss wih her and her trainers picture on the Internet!? Just curious how other feel about this!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
I watch her show on occasion, but I think it's mostly fluff!. I think I saw her say once that she is happy with her body the way it is and that she is at the weight she is supposed to be at, even if it's not skinny!. Eh!. Whatever!.
As somebody else eluded to, she might stay heavy simply because of the demographic she might be reaching that way!. Actually, I think her target audience is the surburban wife and mother!. I'm a suburban wife and mother and her show doesn't impress me!.
I've seen the shows with Bob Greene and just laugh!. He promotes his Best Life Diet and it's mostly just an ad for Gemeral Mills foods, some of which I wouldn't touch due to the ingredients (partially hydrogenated oils, butter, etc!.) or lack of!. (8th Continent Soy Milk is not organic so it might be made with genetically modified products!. No thank you!. It aslo isn't as good as Silk or the Wal-Mart and Kroger store brands)
Also, as has been said-- I agree that we don't know what Oprah does off stage!. She might work out and eat well and just be at that size!. Just because somebody looks bigdoesn't mean they are unhealthy!. My husband is overweight and it would be beneficial to him if he dropped at least 50 pounds!. He could move better, and his ankles and knees wouldn't have problems from carrying the extra weight!. (His parents have the same problem!.) However, because he does eat fairly well, his cholesterol and blood pressure are low!. (On the flip side, his parents are also overweight and eat poorly with high cholesterol, problems walking and with knee, joint and ankle problems!.)
On the flip side, I'm skinny and could stand to gain weight, but my cholesterol and blood pressure are good and I have no problem getting around!. I do enjoy food and eat what I want when I want (whole, real foods), but I just seem to not gain weight easily!.
I do not know Oprah personally, so I cannot make any judgments!.
To me, the show is all about marketing, making money, etc!. She seems to jump on whatever is trendy for the moment, toss in some feel good words and make a few bucks!. Ironically, though, sometimes the commercials for the show (even if it is a locally paid one) seem to contradict what the show is about!. (Fast food commercials during a "health" show!.) I found a free subscription to the Oprah magazine on-line and I just got my first issue yesterday!. I think it's going to be a read once when I am bored and send to the recycler's thing!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

alot of people are heavy, even though they have a personal trainer!. yes she has all the money for a chef and trainer, but as you said she has a lot of money, so therefore she can go to different places and have different food, and food we can't get!. also she said the reason she gets heavy is because she has an theorid problem, and tghat makes people have troble keeping weight off!. and yes she should be advertising weight lose with her trainers picture on the internetWww@Answer-Health@Com
There may be more and more evidence now-days for the set-point theory of weight!. Oprah may just "attract" toward a certain weight!.
Too many variables to consider!.
We don't as the general public know that Oprah works out daily, consistently , or hard enough to make any real body compositional changes!. Not to mention what she eats!.
I think it is okay, for Oprah to advertise a healthy lifestyle!. She seems to identify so much with the general public, plus she is very influential!. But she should not, nor should anyone, be an iconic figure of fitness!. It't too personal!.

First let me say I can't stand her !.!.!.so this is no defense of her AT ALL!.!.!. but some of us just have genes or what ever that result in carrying wieght no mater what!. I recall in the big industrial upheaval and off-shoring in the early 90's I was unemployed for some time!. Things got bad enough that there were days that I didn't get to eat!.!.!. on days when I did it was once a day!.!.!. and!.!.!. I lost no weight at all and that's over about a 6 month span!. I was physically active in that period as well!. So this is not all just because of eating choices in spite of all the popular prejudice in that direction!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
She enjoys food and the ability to eat whatever she wants!. What's wrong with that!? It's her life, if someone really wants to lose weight they will!. I would say she is just enjoying her success!. I'm sure she would love to have a faster metabolism but some people just are not blesed with the ability to eat whatever they want and never have to worry about it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
She has a big weight problem!. It is a constant issue with her!. Just because you exercise doesn't mean you will be thin!. It means your body is in shape!. You have to burn off more than you eat to stay thin!. She is just like everyone else!. She wants to eat foods she shouldn't!. She might have one piece of cake & gain weight!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
