Oprah Winfrey opens up about using weight-loss medication: "Feels like relief"
CBSN
Oprah Winfrey has revealed that she has recently turned to a weight-loss medication after years of struggling with her weight.
In an interview with People magazine, the former talk show host recalled the public ridicule she endured for decades about her size and how she internalized the criticism.
"It was public sport to make fun of me for 25 years," Winfrey told People."I have been blamed and shamed, and I blamed and shamed myself."
