If Oprah gets through her three week intensive introduction to the Vegan way of life, my guess is that she will lose weight, feel like a million bucks, and have her energy go through the roof! America is watching!.
America is overweight and in at least a third of those instances clinically obese!. Oprah is and has been!.
Yes, I think that people will take note and some of them will cheerfully follow in her footsteps!. She is the most influential woman in the world!. Why not!? As for success rates -- that is not at issue!. Those who "get it" will and will continue!. I pray that Oprah herself "gets it", has an awesome experience, and continues for her own health and well being -- as well as the influence she is likely to have on the rest of the population!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

If she can frame it as more than a health issue, possibly!. She might want to talk about the environmental effects of meat production as well--that would certainly get to her listeners!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Without a doubt!. She is a role model for many and is seriously worshipped by many as well!.

Obama will be her first convert if she switches for good!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
I dont think she will become a permanent veganWww@FoodAQ@Com
She did it to lose weight, we all know it!. And I'm vegan because I want to be, thank you!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Whatever her reasons are for trying it, I applaud her for her efforts!. I hope she sticks with it!. Either way, she'll be bringing attention to the topic and influencing many adoring fans!.
As long as everything goes alright (she doesn't get sick for some reason, gain more weight, or anything else) during her vegan time period- I think it can bring only good publicity- well let's hope LOL!. And hopefully, she'll point out the health benefits, the moral benefits, and environmental impacts a vegan diet can have!.
Quite a number of celebrities are vegan or vegetarian but I think Oprah will have more sway than a lot of others so I'm all for it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Fantastic choice Oprah ! Since my wife and I went vegetarian 15 years ago, and then vegan 6 years ago, we have felt excellent and enjoy better meals than ever!. My wife is 43 years old, just gave birth to our first child, a beautiful baby boy, and the doctor was amazed how fantastic her abdominal area looked during the c-section!. He exclaimed that there was no excess fat whatsoever lining the entire area (which is the precursor to heart disease and such), and that the insides of her tummy resembled that of a 20 year old!. He is certain that it is due to her healthy vegan lifestyle!. We were so happy to hear that great news!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
i CANNOT STAND oprah!. i don't hold hatred for people, but i seriously, seriously, dislike that woman!.
if she can convince people to go vegan though!.!.!.!.well, she might just make me only dislike her slightly!. even if her viewers only go vegan for a month or two, imagine the message that would send to the meat industry! she has an enourmous following, and if a handful of those people are affected by her enough to go vegan it's still more people than we had before!!
hopefully she draws awareness to the various reasons for choosing a veg lifestyle instead of just the ones that are motivating her personally!. oprah is very self involved, so i doubt she will!.!.!.but i'll hold out hope!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

"You've all won a German Cucko Clock!." says Oprah, diverting a question!. Remember that Simpson's episode!? It was the best!.
To your question: yes, half the women on the planet will do almost anything she does!. One problem, most women don't have Oprah's ambition and enough reasons to stay healthy and trim!. After all, Oprah knows that she can't have the "best of both worlds", so she knows that she must enjoy this world to the max! (Can you read between the lines!? She is going to HEL*)Www@FoodAQ@Com
