Oprah Winfrey has revealed her thoughts on people using the type 2 diabetes drug Ozempic to lose weight.
The star spoke out about her weight loss journey as she recently hosted “The Life You Want Class: The State of Weight” panel alongside obesity specialists Dr. Fatima Cody Stanford and Dr. Melanie Jay, and psychologist Dr. Rachel Goldman in New York City.
Winfrey — who is a board member and shareholder for WeightWatchers — shared, “Shouldn’t we all just be more accepting of whatever body you choose to be in?
“That should be your choice… Even when I first started hearing about the weight loss drugs, at the same time I was going through knee surgery, and I felt, ‘I’ve got to do this on my own.’ Because if I take the drug, that’s the easy way out,'” she added, according to People.

Showtime's "Yellowjackets" is about a group of teen girls (and a few boys and men) whose plane crashes in the middle of nowhere while they're on their way to a national soccer tournament. Some members of the team perish in the crash, while others die in the 19 months between the crash and when they were rescued. The very first episode of the show teased that the survivors would eventually resort to cannibalism to survive - which also involves some scary-looking rituals.
Since the series occurs on two timelines - 1996 and the present day - we already know which of the Yellowjackets survived the woods and the few who didn't as season two continues. Some of the characters that people assumed died were revealed to be alive at the end of season one, while the fates of others remain a mystery.
