I lost. [applause] i have lost, as of this morning as of this morning, 67 pounds since july 7 67 pounds and 30 inches from my bust, my waist, and my hips. Oprah wheeled out 67 pounds of fat in a little red flyer wagon. That is an image that sticks with you. This is what 67 pounds of fat looks like. [groans] i can't lift it. Before. Bottom line this was something that resonated with millions of american women this show was the highest rated oprah winfrey show of all time all these years later, we're still talking about it. That famous wagon of fat moment on the oprah show is one of my biggest regrets, no matter what oprah had done, we were and then make her body part of her story. And that is an indictment on us. What's going on because this is weightwatchers, please sign me up tonight oprah is the most dramatic evidence that diet culture comes from everybody the bride traditionally where to protect her from e spirits? deanne, i can just any fell in the 1980s, daytime landscape was populated with game shows and soap operas north always talk about 80 thank you. Don't really want to be a career woman after all the target demographic of daytime was women between the ages of 18 and 49. Women who stay at home, they're taking care of the home. It's a fulltime job, may need something to entertain them they're watching these shows religiously. You're just doing this jim crow scary. How, what i've got calorie, qatar's, and shortcuts for each one of the recipes. There's 21 calories a cup. The talk shows up until that time, we're talking about baking a pie or cookies or that kind of thing. All right. We're going but then phil donahue changes the landscape of datetime talk. I feel very pressure make the male. Yes. Well, i said it. I make the bat yes. I hear the kid will do the law. Yes. Sometimes yes. Covered social, political, and religious county universities. He has managed to become a figure of controversy himself. I think televisions problem is not controversy. Its blandness, phil donahue brought topics that had never been discussed, or even thought about daytime television before. You think that mama's boys grow up to be crossdressers oh, no fairly. I just wanted to see with these guys had to say about it keep high in, you're going into the audience. Let's give the people and opportunity to use the airways which belonged to them. The first place friday's great respect for their intelligence. That's why he was number one for many, many years, running his on larry king weekend sally jessy, raphael, who is totcho is now one of the highest rated on daytime television he's. A sally just raphael show premieres in 1983. They should correct to call a fourth grader who is a child of four, correct she breaks ground being this woman who is brassy, she's in your face and she's exciting today. We are going to find out how to turn our bedrooms in the sensuous playgrounds. I didn't know. I would be a the first or being renown or c get into everybody's home we're i'm sorry i tell you who the first female talk show to do controversy she she was lightning in a bottle she was magic to television talk show host and a producer. We first guest, we've ever had on this program named oprah, please welcome. Oprah winfrey like the force of nature. What rocket that was taking off, which was the success of oprah and the oprah winfrey show no body does much like being at a startup. June 20 we have been together, most of us and this show started there. My girls, i say that not as a derogatory term, but there might girls quiet back there girls quiet but you cannot overstate how likely it was for open to get this job in the 90s teen 80s, this was fraught with peril, particularly in a city as racially divided, the chicago. It's not a question of race on that i just it wasn't even a question. How many black women do you know whether they're on talk shows? she was a woman. She was africanamerican. She was overweight and she was 29yearsold probably was the greatest single hired ever appointment tv, and people were hooked you didn't sit back like this and watch oprah you sound like that people get so been out of shape when you mentioned the word, it's like, you know, nobody's ever heard of it of something. And then they stay tuned, right? the pulpit share she's going the dark about it. We never saw numbers ratingwise like oprah had she wiped all the competition out. And i enjoy that want to talk about create a visualization because a lot of people don't know what the hell it is one of the great joys of doing a show like this, is that people walk in realize they're not alone. We we're educating people. We were empowering people. She was more than a talk show host. She was your mother, she was your sister. She was your best friend. I have a gift. I understand that it's the gift to be myself in front of the camera and sort she is oprah, you get what you see and no other adjectives need apply. I was the only college interviewed oprah winfrey ever gave she gave a 20yearold student i'm going to interview timber and i became known as the inter who never left. And this has definitely been the year for oprah winfrey. What's the secret? the secret to being successful on television is learning how to find that part of yourself that can be real and using that in front of millions of people, you don't have to go on and tell your entire life story except i have yes. She added this confessional intimate aspect, making television feel like a friend, a member of the family has a peanuts lunchbox, wanted a one from tiffany's, but they don't make lunchbox she opened herself up to the audience nobody had really done that before. No one. What does oprah winfrey see, what she looks in the mirror side? my thighs. I see. I do serious guys when you look in the mirror oh, as the first thing to say, i didn't even want to talk about the way i know. I know. I don't even want bring it up. I wear i should get okay. Now, we find out early on that she identifies herself as someone who is overweight and that she's been trying to to work on this, but i have been dining now for ten years and gain 70 pounds in the process. That's to treat. But can i tell you i think you look great. I really do. I really do okay. Changing the subject known not to pat each other bad thing to ten years. You've had when i saw oprah winfrey and her larger body, i thought a powerful oprah unfortunately. It felt like to her she was only her weight i've gone up and down and up and i've been on every diet. If you tried the banana weenie, an egg diet but the expectation is if you're a woman, of course you're going to be thin, especially if you're on television. I saw now carter on here last night who lost? yes. But you couldn't tell if she's still very chubb is just loses more don't you think don't you think she's you lose more? that is israel, a friend, that truth even say you are still a pig, lose more because that's what people really think of me. It's very hard to just exist in a world where people constantly think of you as disgusting. That's the external message all the time. Is that the solution is in the shrinking right? as a fat woman especially, you are not allowed to have privacy. You are a public commodity to the point where there's this implication that like people deserve some sort of access to what's going on inside me. Why it's happening? it's the fight you have with yourself, but then also against everyone else to just leave you alone. It had you gain the way i ate a lot no, no, no, no, no, no, no, he shouldn't let that happen. Do you you know what? no, i don't want to hear. Let me tell you this. Thank you. Must lose the wake. It's a do it's a deal he knows what it means to be fat and a woman in the public like i and if you have the ability to discuss it and set the terms of debate why wouldn't you overcome? and she did people in america were watching and then the next day, our world change.

You know what on tuesday, november 15th, i'm going to tell everybody the night before i was asked to find 67 pounds of fat give me a wave if you like. There was a butcher shop in chicago called movement oic i call them they said, do you want liquid fat or solid fat i went to the production offices and said, what's going to make the biggest impact by called them back and said we want the solid fat and i remember i was walking down the hall from our offices and i saw that little red radio flyer wagon i bet 67 pounds of fat fits in here. Had i been a little more savvy at the time? i probably would have bought that way again because that wagon today would probably then be in the smithsonian whatever the case, we knew this show is coming and boy, did it come looks like that little red wagon with all let meat on it my very first stop was that moment is burned into my brain. I remember how i felt when i saw it, even though as fiveyearsold, 67 pounds of fat and then it's been a little kitty bagging some about the juxtaposition of those two things she's shocking the audience. If i mean, my pool hot had to send blood to all of this, i said i'm going to live on broccoli now. Spectacle isn't jr. 's the actual wagon of fat? the spectacle is oprah herself. Now, this is me, 1981. The last time i was in the calvin klein size ten genes until two like james brown, she's done her own transformation episode of herself, of her body went law. Would have you been doing you look good, but no one else. She must be hungry, and lower. Everything is big except oprah's body. She's got on the calvin jeans to let a boots and then turtleneck earrings. That is what upperclass rich, sexy women wear this shirt talk is everything. I mean, that was doubles goals for me to be able to tuck your shirt inside your pants and i can remember being at school the next day and other girls asking me, you to just see oprah. Did you see oprah? i was excited about oprah's achievements as if i had achieved something, but also feeling like i need to get on it idea per winfrey show. Can you hold please, the oprah winfrey show, can you please hold high their pressure? can you hold for a second? i the oprah winfrey show, tv, a talker, oprah winfrey has sparked a new dieting rage all across the nation. Talk show host oprah winfrey got everyone's attention by losing lots of weight on a liquid diets, people want to get guinea just the way she did. The medical community has been ringing a tan and it's just a national obsession now, shock it's spectacle, its ratings gold. It was the highest ratings that we had ever had and eventually of all time. And i say that inside every overweight person, there's a thin person crying. I get out, you know, one of the things that stands out the most for me from the little red wagon episodes is her talking about how much it hurts? the emotional parts of what it's like to live in a fat body. I wrote in my journal and this is about as honest as i can be. I dream of walking into a room one day when this fact it's not the issue. She read what she had written when she first decided to go on this starvation diet at what she shared some dark thoughts. I don't think we'd ever heard a public figure ever share in that much detail and intimacy before. For me, it is getting control of my life. I realized that this fat is a blocker. It is like having mud and my wings it is a barrier to better things. It has been away or may staying comfortable with other people. I want to cry because that's me. Like i feel like the language who's that she uses and literally makes me want to cry mud in your wanes hearing somebody talk about it is this serious? it hurts this much the way other people treat me, the way other people see me. That was really important to me when i was a young person it's painful for us to watch, but imagine how painful it was for her to live. And to live it in front of all of us over deserves compassion for that moment, even if it's imperfect, because that was the way we talked about weight at the time. She's actually an opening, a conversation that maybe it wasn't being heard before because we're all changing and figuring this stuff out. All the time. We all bought it. We all went here oprah is going to be seen forever. This is the new and permanent oprah that was the happiest day of her life. She had done what she wanted to do.

Coaches, workout equipment in gym memberships that we forget to use. It comes to us through the medical establishment the media, through our televisions, through our own communities we romanticize thinness and pop culture he says here, if you stop drinking liquids, you can lose up to five pounds. And there's a constant proliferation of ways in which people are supposed to ideally lose weight i have diverted just about every day of my life for the past ten years. And here's just a few of the diets of first of all, it's banned banana weenie nic, that was really good start starting on monday died. You can either have all carbs are no carbs are all before know before it's endless. Oprah lost 67 pounds eating only a powdered protein food supplement the dianne was, the opta fast program. I drank this medically supervised fast five times a day. Every day for 3. 5 months anything that she endorses is going to go through the roof. People rushed to also want to do after fast liquid diets rocket atlanta superstar popularity stores across the country sold out in a few days. The optic fast center in glendale, california had to turn down hundreds of people who want wanted to join. I mean, when you see something that dramatic that would do that could be me. Now the caveat with all these dyes is what happens when you start what happens when you stop and you start eating again? and oprah headlines are entertainment news tonight, the talk show host us saying she can't seem to keep off those pounds. Good to a chronic problem, kicking out or loses all this weight and brings us this red wagon of fat. And then almost immediately afterwards starts to gain weight again. That is not an oprah failure. That's what a body coming out of starvation is going to do it is a battle that i'm still fighting every waking moment of my life but she internalized it as a failure and the entire world pointed it out to her as a failure. Helpful to matter if you really look great. 67 pounds and i wouldn't judging her bad good, indifferent, but everybody has an opinion oprah winfrey has got a new perfume oh, to opta fast this is the tail on the oprah. Can you going hazy, but as oprah lose weight yes thank you. Were able to find fault in oprah's body no matter what she did to it of my earliest memories of oprah. A black female icon as the butt of a joke. And it's so easy for people to say like, yeah, but that's just jokes with the ripple effect is on everybody so you're directing the joke at oprah, you know, but tomorrow i have to go to work with somebody who thinks i'm going to explode in turn into potato chips it's easy to forget just how much these kinds of magazines were just like all over oprah, all the time, literally saying things like oprah was bumpy, lumpy, and downright dumpy i think i just noticed this is not an article about john goodman needing to go on a diet and this is an article about john goodman being a great actor. To have this right after the oprah article you can do hours a day, die wars. You think you've got to wait battle. Oprah winfrey, dolly parton, and jack nicholson happen the problems that are off the scale really, but also, how do i get invited to a junk food orgy apparently she had junk food or she but like how many times can you you know, here that without an effective, you can page through the tabloid, all for aid, a whole pizza pie by herself. There's not one single thing in there that's true. Know i heard a rumor about this restaurant what was it that you have to actually drink? while the food through a straw when you look the way you want to look, and you've read it, people all of a sudden think of you differently. You'll yeah, warm and loving. And this, and that not the same in oprah, you can't come my house anymore. Well, i'm over that because i hadn't asked you couldn't come to your house. No one what's interesting to me is that with the exception of the wagon of fat episodes, when oprah winfrey is skinny for ratings decline when oprah winfrey is heavy, her ratings go through the roof. Her body puts people at ease. The american public deeply relates to her as this nurturing, deeply human, deeply authentic, and empathetic figure the other thing that she's embodying as a larger black woman is a trope that is very familiar in american culture, especially with white americans. Oh, no, ms gala, you come on and be good knee, chest, umami figure is an histologic character dropped into a white household as the housekeeper stand in, mother figure, there is nothing oprah is doing that is creating this mami figure it's what her white audience brings to her she she lets the iranian snow that she cares about people he's kind of person you turn to on a troubled time. She's interesting. She is fun. And i just love her the idea that someone black female and that would grow up to embody the side guise of american popular culture is as fantastical as going to disney land and thinking all of the characters are real decorated have ran, have blue it's a really tough call for you.

Yeah, i'm a great body and you have great curve just need the straight streamline. Yeah. Well, i appreciate i appreciate your support. Even when you hear steadman call into the oprah show, i don't believe that steadman likes oprah better, thinner overlooked like that for one day you know, what have we had gotten to see oprah and steadman be romantic with each other, like fat oprah mean romantic what if we had those visuals? i remember watching a tv movie with ricki lake. She's dating this guy and you're sitting in the bathtub together? and i thought it was a sexiest thing i had ever seen before in my leg just trump's lot and opened fire. And so why should i have been so taken by seeing this? because it's representation and it really does matter i'm trying to remember what there was on television for me at this time, the only other place i'm seeing fact people is on her talk show was where every once in awhile there's the fat and happy episode of the talk show and i feel like those episodes were trotted out as like oddities, like it's like, oh, here's a guy that got married to a balloon stripper who loves her body this is tabitha. He says her boyfriend stuff is so embarrassed by her way. He refuses to go out in public for ten pounds on her shirt. You wouldn't find her attractive know, diets and food.

They can't be juliette as long as they watch washington post columnist tom shells calls top shows the pornography of the 90s there's no idea that's two outlandish and certainly there's no idea that's two salacious, are over the top because it's deeply cutthroat andrew, you are not okay had really gone out of control everybody said out any homophobia, it was all grist for entertainment. It was just trash and everybody knew it everybody wanted to watch. Oprah was really affected by what had happened to the industry. It didn't help people, didn't enrich them. And that was what she decided her mission was. Your intentionally changing the direction of shelter, focusing in a new words up and listing topics i dream about finding a new way of doing television that elevates us all i really am tired of the crud, the oprah winfrey show decides that they don't want to do this kind of sleazy daytime talk, controversial thing. And they really moved into this living your best life kind of mantra is what i want to say at some point during the show will power use from the willingness to work one of the things that you notice is that oprah stops going into the audience. The audience is there to learn. Oprah is their teacher. Ober's guests are the experts who are deeply entrenched in this world of lifestyle of health, of beauty. Bob is your guy. He's changed the way i feel about exercise and change my life marathon me like this pivotal moment, this stopped being about getting skinny and instead was about getting strong and fit yourself diets don't work, so you don't starve yourself. You make a lifestyle change. And that's how you beat it this time okay strong at she's feeling better than she's ever felt before. She's working out and that was the permanent solution, of course. And then that's the end of the story because opening never gains weight again no oprah's body up and down student magazine susan oh magazine from 2009 it's oprah from 2005 next to oprah from 2009 oprah on her battle with weight its a battle with so much more than weight, like it's a battle with, i a whole culture are telling you that you are wrong.
