Oprah Winfrey’s diet lets you eat pasta and bread — but you still may find it surprisingly annoying

• I followed Oprah Winfrey’s daily meal plan, which adheres to Weight Watchers’ points program.
• Her typical intake includes low-point foods like eggs, shrimp, fish, and greens: This allows her the freedom to indulge in things like rosé and bread.
• The system frustrated me and left me hungrier than I would have liked.

Oprah Winfrey and I share a very singular passion: bread. When I was a child, my mom called me the “carb queen” and warned that if I kept eating so many bagels, I would turn into one. Similarly, despite many ups and downs with her weight over the years, Oprah refuses to abandon her commitment to starches.

In addition to being a media mogul, businesswoman, movie star, and dream presidential candidate, Oprah is a longtime advocate for healthy weight loss. This may be why she is also a shareholder in Weight Watchers.
