Oprah's weight loss secret
Can you look like her if you lose weight?
Oprah looks great. She looks great; period. But for 51, she looks even better. In fact, if you see the pictures Oprah has posted on her website, you will see that Oprah looks better now than when she was younger. And
it is important to remember that Oprah achieved
this without any plastic surgery at (e.g. neither
gastric bypass surgery nor liposuction
nor tummy
tuck - all of which are perfectly acceptable plastic
surgery solutions for weight loss but only
suggested when you have maxed out dieting and
exercising options).

 Oprah has told a story on her show about how, when she was very large, she did not let the seamstress
take her
measurements. She will tell her aides that she should simply see her and estimate her measurements. Oprah did not want anyone to know how large she really was. That was a long time ago and Oprah has come a long way since then.

Yes, Oprah is a
fit woman now. She
lost weight the right
way, the old fashioned way - eating right and
working
out. That healthy prescription shows on her glowing skin and a highly
toned
body. Even her abs look great. However, Oprah often talks on her show about other changes in her life, how she loves and respects herself now, and how she pampers herself. Is it only the weight loss that has changed Oprah? Will you look that good only by
losing
weight? Oprah has accomplished more than mere
weight
loss. Let’s see some of the attributes of her new persona now:
|
A great posture.
On television, the newscaster and talk show hosts do not slouch. All of them have
good posture and Oprah is no exception. She carries herself very well. Good posture is vital to
looking
good. If you lose weight and have bad posture, you will not look your best. Improve your posture now. Do not wait till you lose weight.

style has gone from poor taste in some cases to exquisite. She dresses well and she knows what to wear. But let me guess what you are thinking. When someone has that type of money, it is easy to dress well. With an entourage that includes stylists, hairdresser, makeup artist, designer friends, wonderful
photographers (for the magazine covers), a fitness trainer, cooks etc., anyone can look good.

Okay. You and I do not have that type of money, but what can we do? Develop your own style; try on clothes, and watch “What not to wear” and similar TV programs. You can learn it. It will take time and practice, but better later than never. Here are two ideas to get started:
|
|
- Hire a stylish or an image
consultant. They are not very expensive. Or ask friends with good taste to help you. Once you know someone whom you like and ask her for help, she will be delighted to share her tips – after all, who does not want to be considered as an expert?
- Take a modeling class. Why not? You are not a teenager anymore? Who cares! You want to be adventurous, so just have fun at the modeling school.
- Poise, grace, and the most important of all,
self-confidence.
Oprah really has it. Trust
yourself, be kind to yourself, talk positive, think
positive, be graceful, and be thankful. I do not know Oprah personally, but I think she is a great listener, a fun friend who is not cynical, and a woman with a mission beyond herself. If you lose weight and do not
respect and love yourself even before you start losing weight, do not expect that your life will change just by losing weight. You are worthy of your
self-love and
self-respect.

It helps to have Oprah’s money but you can do it. Lose the weight and look great, but you can also start to look great right now as you are.
