Oprah Winfrey

World-renowned television personality Oprah Winfrey is considered by many to be an American icon. Called the Queen of All Media, she is best known for her eponymously titled talk show, which ran from 1986 to 2011 and made her the first female black billionaire in the world. Her signature style of motivational talk has inspired millions, and the Oprah Effect has helped countless people. Her company, the Oprah Winfrey Network, became her flagship company. Aside from all this, she has made numerous investments in various industries such as food, entertainment, and mass media.

Oprah is no stranger to losing weight. Even during her meteoric rise in the 1980s, she has been open about her struggles with weight loss. In 1988, she famously dragged a cart of fat weighing 67 pounds to showcase how much weight she had lost. Recently, she lost around 19kg in 2019 and it was done through a change in diet.
