Such scrutiny is the product of diet culture, the influences and messages that affect how we eat, based on cultural pressure to attain an ideal body type, experts say. And with increasing changes in access to food, exercise and health care, people’s weight is becoming more out of their individual control, she added. A 2019 meta-analysis showed that more than 80% of weight loss is regained after five years. One idea is that diet culture keeps a check on power.

In a social media post late Saturday night, Trump wrote, “A long time ago, Oprah Winfrey asked me to do her last Network Television Show. He did not appear on the last episode of “The Oprah Winfrey Show” in 2011, nor even in the star-studded final week of the show. At a campaign rally in North Carolina earlier on Saturday, Trump said: “And didn’t Oprah ask her about her time at McDonald’s?

Juliana Yamada/APGroups led by Black women also are launching new political ventures to aid Harris. And she was among the Black women who publicly urged Biden to remain in the race, following his poor June 27 debate performance. Black female organizers in the state also are extending their reach far beyond other Black women. “At the end of the day, what you’re not going to do is blame Black women for not doing their job,” she said.
