Check out June Oprah Magazine

[Guest guest]

I hope many of you are not turned off by Oprah. Sometimes her stuff

bugs me, but sometimes it meets me right where I am. No matter where

you sit with Oprah, her June Magazine has some great articles of women

that have learned to overcome negative body messages from family and

society and learned to love and accept themselves just the way they

are.

In Oprah's article " What I Know For Sure " she talks about how for

years she has wasted so much time worrying about her weight and hating

herself being fat, wanting to be thin, feeling guilty for eating a

bunch of croissants, then giving them up, then fasting, dieting and

eating everything she wanted over the weekend or holiday just to start

the starving all over again (sound familiar?) In the very end of the

article she says " You're not your body, and for you're not your body

image " . Anyway, it's a good edition of her magazine. check it out!

Side note: I have to question though, why then does she promote

dieting and her trainer Bob Greene's new book and diet plan? Go

figure! Condratictory I must say!
