I just saw her show with the woman who had a stroke and how she changed her life and priorities after.  So inspiring.<br><br>I recently watched another  Oprah where she said 80% of women wear the wrong bra size and I was one of them. I had lost a lot of weight and did not know what size I was.  I went to Nordstrom's and got professionally measured and was suprised that my back was smaller than I thought.  By wearing the right bra my figure now looks better.  I love Wacoal bras.. a little pricey but worth it.<br> <br>I am vain so I love to stay fit and look young. I drink tons of water wear sunblock (the cvs brand is great) and wear smartsole anti-cellulite insoles that cause you to burn more calories with every step. I bought them at <a href="http://www.smartsole.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.smartsole.com</a> and used the coupon code that I read about on the Oprah site (great for tips!) SMART15 and got 15% off.<br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Rachel]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 24th 2008 2:25PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/10/24/is-oprahs-new-favorite-gadget-the-amazon-kindle/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/10/24/is-oprahs-new-favorite-gadget-the-amazon-kindle/</guid><description><![CDATA[Where did you buy the Wacoal Bras? ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 24th 2008 4:13PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/10/24/is-oprahs-new-favorite-gadget-the-amazon-kindle/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/10/24/is-oprahs-new-favorite-gadget-the-amazon-kindle/</guid><description><![CDATA[You know, I like Oprah.  I've known her (via tv) since she began as a newscaster in Baltimore way back when.  However, although I respect that she has opinions about politics and books, etc. I don't understand why so many people act like lemmings and follow her lead.  I think for myself on the issues of politics and books and they don't always dovetail with Oprah.  Jeez when did the American public stop thinking for themselves???? ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Karon]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 24th 2008 2:57PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/10/24/is-oprahs-new-favorite-gadget-the-amazon-kindle/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/10/24/is-oprahs-new-favorite-gadget-the-amazon-kindle/</guid><description><![CDATA[People stopped thinking for themselves when liberalism took over.....................I also remember Oprah from Baltimore in the 70's and 80's.

The bra segment was greatest thing I've ever heard.  I had spent years in the wrong size and type!  No wonder everything looked like that ( you can use your imagination)!

Everyone takes this woman's opinion as "gospel truth." Please.. Let's learn to read things ACTUALLY worth reading. As for voting, vote educated, don't vote for someone just because some woman on tv with more money than you'll ever have, tells you to vote for this guy. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ohne Dich]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 24th 2008 3:34PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/10/24/is-oprahs-new-favorite-gadget-the-amazon-kindle/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/10/24/is-oprahs-new-favorite-gadget-the-amazon-kindle/</guid><description><![CDATA[Ohne Dich.. Although I am not a huge Oprah fan one has to admit she has helped thousands with some of the info that is on her show.   I think Oprah would be the first to tell people to use their own opinion's and judgement to make decissions on not only voteing but books and countless other area's.   She does have a relativly high IQ as does the person she endorsed for predident and again I think she would agree with you "don't just follow her as gospel truth but read and educate yourself".   Again I am not a "follower" of her but when she has a program that has info that interests me I tune in and have usually been pleased with what I learned.   She is a self made woman / billionare.  Free Enterprise, I thought thats what people like you liked.  And how many countless others have used money, fame, power to influence the masse's.  LOT'S of them thru out hiistory.   Lighten up.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jgask]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 24th 2008 4:53PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/10/24/is-oprahs-new-favorite-gadget-the-amazon-kindle/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/10/24/is-oprahs-new-favorite-gadget-the-amazon-kindle/</guid><description><![CDATA[I too have been watching Oprah from the beginning. Over the years she has become someone that I can relate to that has the same feelings as many other female out there.  She shares her toughts and ideas with her audience and she is a very deep spiritual person. I believe she is real and not fake like so many other celebrities out there.  I don't believe there are people out there voting for Obama just because Oprah is.  I would hope people would vote for whom they believe will be a better President. I also know that Oprah is voting for Obama  not because he is a black man, but because she knows he will be the better Pesident then McCain. For thoses of you who believe other wise you really don't know the true "Oprah".   There were alot of women I heard who stopped  watching Oprah and cancelled their subscription to her magazine all because she told everyone she was backing Barack.  Its your loss that you don't watch her anymore and no one elses.  How inmature people can be is beyond me but thats a typical women for you.<br>I'm a white female who happens to agree with Oprah concerning Barack Obama however if she was backing McCain, I couldn't see myself not watching her show or cancelling my subscription to the "O" Magazine. That is just ridulous to me.  I think if more people were like her the world would be a better place to live. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Janet]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 24th 2008 4:47PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/10/24/is-oprahs-new-favorite-gadget-the-amazon-kindle/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/10/24/is-oprahs-new-favorite-gadget-the-amazon-kindle/</guid><description><![CDATA[Oprah has lost the respect she once had.  Now that she is sporting past lives and all that out there spiritual stuff her influence has lost its punch.  If the inexperienced Obama makes any huge mistakes her career with plummet with his approval ratings.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Cheryl]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 25th 2008 12:40PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/10/24/is-oprahs-new-favorite-gadget-the-amazon-kindle/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/10/24/is-oprahs-new-favorite-gadget-the-amazon-kindle/</guid><description><![CDATA[Whoopie Goldberg pitched the Kindle on the View MONTHS ago.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Judy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 24th 2008 5:10PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/10/24/is-oprahs-new-favorite-gadget-the-amazon-kindle/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/10/24/is-oprahs-new-favorite-gadget-the-amazon-kindle/</guid><description><![CDATA[I love The Oprah show and watch it when something special may be on, like the "bra" segment. Her promotion of certain books has also inspired me to read some that I may never have picked up otherwise. Basically, Oprah is a very influential women. The bad part about her declaring her support of a specific presidential candidate is that there are too many "followers" that  would vote for Sylvester Stallone or John Travolta if she suggested it-LOL. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[psdietcoke]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 24th 2008 5:51PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/10/24/is-oprahs-new-favorite-gadget-the-amazon-kindle/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/10/24/is-oprahs-new-favorite-gadget-the-amazon-kindle/</guid><description><![CDATA[I can't stand Oprah. She is so self absorbed and self important...do we really need to hear about all her best friends...Maya Angelou, Tom Cruise, Maria Shriver...her Legends Ball?!?! She has gotten terrible in the past few years, she won't even let guests finish their sentences...she asks experts a question then finishes their sentences like she knows the answer...I am SO sick of her!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Carol]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 24th 2008 6:15PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/10/24/is-oprahs-new-favorite-gadget-the-amazon-kindle/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/10/24/is-oprahs-new-favorite-gadget-the-amazon-kindle/</guid><description><![CDATA[Jealous,ha?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[mstina62]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 24th 2008 8:50PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/10/24/is-oprahs-new-favorite-gadget-the-amazon-kindle/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/10/24/is-oprahs-new-favorite-gadget-the-amazon-kindle/</guid><description><![CDATA[Carol, I feel the same way that you do.

She has done nothing for us, but made ridiculous amounts of money off of you, selling her useless self help products and ideas.  She is a shark.  You Oprahlites are minnows.  Keep on letting her suck you in.  She's just like a televangelist.  Give me your money for my healing water and you will be saved.  Vote for Obama and all your problems will go away.  She only endorses those that will increase her ludicrous wealth.  You will never see her come to your house and renovate it.  He charity is small in comparison to her wealth.  You live in poverty while she sells you on her dripping wet sales pitch.  She is just a $#!+ salesman with samples in her mouth.  Thank God for real books, real people that are trying to help this country, and anyone that boycotts this evil devil in disguise woman.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[anti oprah]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 24th 2008 6:29PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/10/24/is-oprahs-new-favorite-gadget-the-amazon-kindle/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/10/24/is-oprahs-new-favorite-gadget-the-amazon-kindle/</guid><description><![CDATA[EXCELLENT POST !]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[MICHAEL]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 25th 2008 1:47PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/10/24/is-oprahs-new-favorite-gadget-the-amazon-kindle/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/10/24/is-oprahs-new-favorite-gadget-the-amazon-kindle/</guid><description><![CDATA[Karon: I don't understand why so many people act like lemmings and follow her lead.
