Hello everyone
Alot of you were asking about the foods and what the Oprah's boot camp actually consisted of. So I hope that this may be of some assistance. And I hope after reading this that you can join us.
Here are the rules as far as eating goes: 
1. Overall, eat lean protein, two fruits a day, and all the green vegetables you want.
2. Keep the fat low (for salad dressing, you can use a little olive oil with lemon and garlic).
3. No alcohol.
4. The main rule: eliminate the white stuff—bread, pasta, potatoes, rice—as well as candy, pastry, cookies, cake. "A few people might get evil on me," Oprah says, knowingly—sugar deprivation can turn even a saint nasty!
5. For the first month, stay away from whole grains (brown rice, oatmeal, whole wheat cereals and breads). After that, you can slowly add them back.
6. The other big rule: You must stop eating three hours before bedtime. Do just this, Oprah says, and you'll lose weight.
7. During the 12 weeks, you get to choose three days when you can allow yourself either alcohol (a glass of wine, maybe two; a cocktail) or some refined carbs (one piece of cake, one slice of bread, one bowl of pasta. The key word is one).
Rules for Exercising 
1. You have eight workouts a week with one day of rest. ix days a week, you do 20 minutes of resistance training using dumbbells. Choose a weight that's heavy enough to tire the muscle by the 12th rep—most women begin with five to ten pounds (Oprah's using 15 pounds for the biceps and 12 for all the other moves; the rest of the team is starting with eight). If you already weight train, go through your upper-body exercises. Try some of Oprah's favorites!
2. Each session includes a cardio workout. Start with 30 minutes, five days a week, and on the sixth day, double the time to an hour. But here's the trick: The more comfortable a workout is, the less effective, so the aerobics are designed to constantly up the metabolic ante. Oprah and her team are using treadmills and increasing the challenge every two minutes by raising the speed, incline, or both. The idea is to continually push yourself a little further than you thought you could go, until you get to the point where you can talk but don't want to.
3. Every day, take it up a notch; staying at the same level is the biggest mistake people make. Don't be afraid to jack up that incline!
4. Every week, extend the aerobics sessions by two minutes (week two would be 32 minutes and 64 on the long workout). So by the end of the three months, you'll be doing almost an hour a day, and double that on the sixth session.
5. On top of all of this, you do a second half-hour workout two days a week. This session is a combination of cardio and strength training. Every five minutes, you alternate between the treadmill and a series of floor moves: situps, squats, and biceps curls and lateral raises with the hand weights. "You sweat a lot," she says. "I wouldn't do this if I wasn't in boot camp."
Rules for Doubling up 
(2 days a week)
1. Do 5 minutes on the treadmill at 3 mph on a 12 incline, or as close to that incline as you can. Every time you get back on the machine, you'll increase the speed and lower the incline.
2. Next 5 minutes: Get off and a floor series of biceps curls, lateral raises, squats, and situps.
3. Next 5 minutes: Back to the treadmill 3.5 mph and a 10 incline.
4. Next 5 minutes: Then do your floor routine: biceps curls, lateral raises, squats, and situps.
5. Next 5 minutes: Back on the treadmill at 4 mph and an 8 incline.
6. Next 5 minutes: Do your floor work series.
7. Last 5 minutes: Back on the treadmill at a light jog, 4.5 mph, and a 4 incline.
