Oprah weighs 200 pounds, again We all go through the denial stage where we say we will never be fat again and then our famine fighting bodies betray us. Our addiction to food becomes overwhelming and we fall off the wagon. Like Oprah, I once weighed a whopping 257 lbs. and lost 60 pounds plus, down to 186 at one point during the recent bout of not eating enough to keep me full. I still remember with fondness coming home from college back in my youth, weighing a mean 127 lbs. My sister raved about how good I looked and my mom began to stuff me with food. “Oh you look so sickly”. To this day, my sister remembers that episode and so do I. It was a conflict of wanting to be thin versus wanting to eat. Let me tell you that 127 wasn’t thin it was just about right for my sturdy 5’2” muscular frame.
Currently, I weigh 223.5 lbs and I am on my way back down the scale, again. Working out a minimum of 5 days a week, lifting weights, doing mat Pilates, treadmill, WII Fit, and any fitness DVD that strikes my fancy. It is the food that is always my issue, I love it, I crave it, I want it... ALL THE TIME.

I hope the above link works to the msn article. I have also switched my goal from being thin to being strong, healthy and fit. My target weight is near the 150 range. All I want is to weigh less than my lean and fit boyfriend so 166 would do. I wish us all luck in the coming holiday season and remember just a teaspoon of peanut butter before a party helps keep your addiction in check (just a little bit anyway).
