It must be hard to be so scrutinized and judged, esp as she stands next to (or sits) and interviews some of the world's most beautiful people... or at least according to people magazine. Calling it a love issue, and not a weight issue I think will really come across to America. In these hard times... to invest in yourself. What do you think, are you watching? "I like smiling.

This woman I know is obsessed with being thin. Not because she's too thin, but because it is the hallmark to judge everyone. Forget that Oprah is one of the most influential philanthropists of the 20th century, she's fat. And I hate the way she says the word 'fat', too.

Is it a particular way SHE says it... or you just dont like that she uses the word, FAT? The thing I did like was that she is embracing her current, more fluffy self - and at least respecting her body for the fact that her heart still beats- and that she can wake up every morning and live. I don't always like the power of influence Oprah has on the general viewing public... that what she says... they purchase. However, I do hope that if she can go through and touch people to be true to themselves and tune in to their bodies with a little self love... well then- rock on! And as far as a celebrity gaining two pounds and being preggo... if they weren't sooo thin that you could see their heart beat in the tummy - I think the speculation wouldn't be soo intense. I guess I cannot complain too much- otherwise I wouldn't fuel the market by watching tabloid TMZ and purchasing Star magazine only when the cover is interesting enough. "I like smiling.

Every so often I'll hear my bf make a comment and I know its because he's heard her say things like that for so long. We were watching the E True Hollywood story on Heidi Klum. They showed how she was in the VS runway show only 6 or 8 weeks after giving birth. She dropped 40 pounds in 6 or 8 weeks, people!!! Anyway, the program is showing Heidi on the catwalk and bf says, Whoa, she's got some pretty big thighs, doesn't she? I looked at him with a look of disgust and said, You've got to be kidding me?!?!?
