O's BFF on the Weight Battle

Oprah Winfrey's longtime best friend Gayle King went on "Good Morning America" today to set the record straight about Winfrey's struggle to shed pounds.

"When you are 40 pounds overweight, you are not a healthy person," Gayle revealed on the talk show. King maintained that Oprah is back on track to her goal weight -- and optimal health. "Oprah's going to do something about it," said King, "she is already in the process of doing something about it."
