Oprah Winfrey is showing off her slimdown.
The media mogul put her weight loss on display in workout gear while hitting the gym in Santa Barbara on Wednesday.
The former talk show host paired a long-sleeve black top with striped sweats and white sneakers, in photographs obtained by Page Six.
The 71-year-old’s hair was down, pulled back from her face with a black headband.
The outing comes one month after the actress made headlines for making a bold claim about “thin people” on “The Oprah Podcast.”

In May of the following year, Winfrey apologized to her fans for contributing to “diet culture” over the years during a WeightWatchers special.

She has since apologized for contributing to “diet culture” for many year.
“I cannot tell you how many weight-loss shows and makeovers I have done, and they have been a staple since I’ve been working in television,” she said.
Prior to her reveal, Winfrey referred to weight-loss drugs as the “easy way out.”
The Golden Globe winner is far from the only A-lister to admit to turning to type 2 diabetes drugs for help, with Kelly Clarkson, Sharon Osbourne and more using it to slim down.
