~~~ THANKS OPRAH ~~~ for another blow !!!

[stella5349]

I am ticked!!! Did anyone watch the Oprah show????? Her "Living Well" series started and

guess what???????

HER THYROID ISSUES ARE "CURED"  Oh BY JESUS - SHE IS HEALED AGAIN!!!!!!!!  ( cough cough)

What a bunch of bull!!! I truly have had it with HER.  I work my tail end off here and all over Racine on our metobolism resistance - insulin resistance - and all the other REAL DAM things going on with us and she waltz's in on her multi million dollar show and says

We'll we need balance!! -

I DO belive that TO SOME DEGREE - but it is not the CURE ALL here you stupid ignorant rich woman!!

OMG - I swear I am blowing a gasket !!! I am totally unglued with this prema donna thinking it's a "frame of mind" we need to be in to make us thin and "happy".

I'd like her to answer one dam thing  " WHAT THE HE// CAUSED ME TO ALL OF A SUDDEN GAIN 40 POUNDS

( AS YOU (OPRAH))

IN LESS THAN 4 YEARS ( AGAIN.... LIKE YOU ( OPRAH)  )

WHEN I NEVER HAD A F*****ING WEIGHT PROBLEM TO BEGIN WITH???? But I have a thyroid that beat to he// though??????

I want to totally cry - I wish I never had my hopes up to ask her to help us. The hours I spent communicating to all her staff about here at MH and all the people here crying for help..

Of course she added her plug in of

"This is the year for change!"  (Bite me!)


I am so sorry I disappointed all of you. I really thought the word could be out there asking her to help and all she did was destroy the little hope I had.

It is Thyroid Awareness month right now. Please be out there in herds if we have to telling all that will listen - This is NOT an easy fix to CURE. Some never  ( as me) will ever be CURED.

All it was - was false hope to some who watched her show. I now seriously ban her show to be turned on MY TV ever again.

and her January O magizine is now great a great SUPPORT to start a roaring fire in my fireplace.

JUST FOR THE RECORD OPRAH - YOU'RE FAT BECAUSE YOUR THYROID CR@PPED OUT ON YOU - NOT BECAUSE YOU NEED ANOTHER SPOILING IN HAWAII.

Me too zilch.  I opted to read about her on the e news this morning vs. live.  I didn't want her burned in my mind .. the image of denial.  Stella we tried [again] to no avail but that won't ever stop any of us .. not a one .. I'm certain .. the anger will keep us going to help as many as we can.  As far as being cured; well, whatever works for her I guess is good for her .. and that probably equates into ratings not words.

What about that new show The Doctors?  Any one watch that, maybe we could get them to but something on there show?

[doneitall]

Well, I've heard AND seen it all now!!!  Oprah looks like ****, but she is cured, and now she is going to help the rest of us and our loved ones make better lives!  I've wasted the last minute I am ever going to waste on Oprah and her self-indulgent bull...

now, if anybody out there could please help me get my daughter's health back I'd really appreciate it!!! We are drowning in her hypothyroid...she's only 21 and has been struggling for the last 3 years...gone from a size 4 to a 14 ...she's in college...these should be her most wonderful times of her life...on 100m of synthroid for the past year...please help!

i don't watch oprah, i haven't watched that show in years. so i really don't care what she said, says, or may say. and now i will not watch good morning america because they have okra and her fitness guru bob, blah bllah blah, questions i ask myself, why ? because my thyroid has gone totally bezerk, it's not because i can't step away from the plate, and junk food, i eat extremely healthy. and in small amouonts...blah blah blah, i am like others, tired of those in the public eye abuse their fame. shame shame shame.

I gave up on celebrities many years ago. They are all too out of reality to know how the rest of the world really thinks.
I haven't watched Oprah for years, when all her shows were about things like, Get a makeover and catch a husband..or How to be healed of abuse by eating peanut butter sandwiches...or This child is dying..let's all hold hands and do a great big fundraiser and take him to Disneyland. She has missed the point for years.
Now Phil Donohue.. MAN he kicked bot bot on his show when stupid people claimed things like she does. He would have torn her to shreds! Bring him out of retirement and you would see a HUGE change in the thinking for us thyroidians!
  And Stella...big breaths, big breaths..all is calm, all is good, we love you still!

I think Oprah has graves. She talked about the heart palpatations and high blood pressure and taking medicine for those conditions. Being hyper with graves will do that to ya.....and let you be skinny. I am guessing she had RAI to fix the problem because I dont see a scar from a thyroidectomy. Now she is hypo and has gained a lot of weight. I remember her saying last year her thyroid levels are now 'normal' and she cant blame her thryroid problems for her weight anymore. Normal because her readings are in 'normal' ranges.
I saw her show today and thats what I think happened to her. She sounds just like me. I am 25 pounds heavier since my tt last June and it just keeps getting worse. They cant seem to get my levels right on synthroid. I feel like ****. If she looses weight this year by diet and exercise, then there might be hope for me.  I am guessing she is fighting an uphill battle and wont win. Won't she look stupid if she isnt successfull in front of the whole world? She needs to be honest, and all of her gurus around her need to be educated about how thyroid problems affects your metabilism. That Bob Greene trainer guy hasnt got a clue. He hasnt dealt with anyone with thryroid disease. Oprah will have to starve herself to loose the weight. I eat very little and it doesnt matter one bit. I still gain. I have to admit to eating more since I feel better and dont have the 'runs' constantly and puke everyother day like I did when my graves was really bad. But I did love being thin and am depressed now. I think Oprah is depressed about her weight, too. She just wont admit it.
Sorry for venting......I wasnt happy with her show today either.
