Oprah Winfrey has confirmed using weight-loss medication, specifically Eli Lilly's Zepbound, for a dramatic 40-pound transformation. This revelation comes after years of being shamed and blamed for her weight. She expressed relief and redemption, emphasizing the importance of a medically approved prescription for managing weight. The news has sparked controversy, with some criticizing her for being an ambassador for Weight Watchers while using the drug. Additionally, it has been reported that patients who stopped using Zepbound experienced substantial weight regain, raising concerns about the drug's effectiveness.
