OPRAH Winfrey has shown off her slimmed-down figure after attending a huge conference recently.
Earlier this week, the TV icon was spotted looking happier than ever on a sunny day in Idaho.

"I have been blamed and shamed, and I blamed and shamed myself."
Oprah recalled a magazine that struck a nerve, "I was on the cover of some magazine and it said, 'Dumpy, Frumpy and Downright Lumpy.'
"I didn’t feel angry. I felt sad. I felt hurt. I swallowed the shame. I accepted that it was my fault."
In 2021, Oprah changed her ways after she underwent knee surgery.
"After [the surgery], I started hiking and setting new distance goals each week. I could eventually hike three to five miles every day and a 10-mile straight-up hike on weekends.
"I felt stronger, more fit and more alive than I’d felt in years."

TAKING CONTROL
The billionaire businesswoman revealed that she would stop eating after 4 pm and would drink a gallon of water each day all while using WeightWatchers principles.
She then discussed weight-loss medications, " I had an awareness of [weight-loss] medications, but felt I had to prove I had the willpower to do it. I now no longer feel that way."
