And all her public diet rebounding shows she’s human, too.  For millions of Americans, we seesaw back in forth between being ‘good’ and giving in to cravings, so it feels good to welcome Oprah to our club. But when Oprah teamed up with Weight Watchers, that relationship was different.  Now she was a member, too.  She was having to walk the walk to talk the talk…right there in high definition of our 55 inch TV. She said what many of…
