If this were so easy, Oprah would have done it.

It seems like it's all Oprah, all the time these days as her daily show winds down.  She is a one woman global enterprise, 'OWN'ing her own network, magazine, and millions of followers who look to her for advice, book choices and as a kind of life coach.   She has no equal in what she has built from the sheer force of her personality and will.  I caught a glimpse of her best friend Gayle King last night on Piers Morgan and they were sharing stories of her kindness and simple humanity.  And of course, she has a gazillion dollars that she puts in good use to benefit and encourage others.
So, with all of that, does it surprise you that she still apparently struggles with weight issues?  How many of us that do so too have thought that if we only had a private chef, a home gym, a life coach or a trainer like Jillian Michaels or Bob Greene, we could finally and completely shed our excess weight?  Just when I start to feel that it is easy or that I have this under control, I have a slip-up.  I am working at not having these be major.  But it's hard.  Those of us that are on this journey are in good company.
