What’s your favorite celebrity? “reason.” The Ozemic (semaglutide) hold outs.

If I had a nutritionist and chef to cook for me (and separate meals for my children who basically only eat carbs and cheese), had an enormous house where I wasn’t working in my kitchen all day, and had three hours a day to work out, I’m sure I’d be a size 4 again. That’s why I think people like Jen Anniston don’t need to have an eating disorder to be thin — they just need to time and resources to devote to it.

Of course that doesn’t work for everyone because some people (Oprah) just have bodies with different programming. But most stars are not built like that because there’s such a selective bias in Hollywood to start with.

Sure, but the celebrities listed in that Instagram post had all been struggling with their weight for years, so it's not like they just discovered they could have a private chef.

Ok, so then it really was walking that made Kelly Clarkson finally lose weight? Got it.

There are people on DCUM (I suspect, the same few people) who seem weirdly invested in thinking they're boldly "calling out" celebrities who are denying using Ozempic etc. I'd bet that the person who started this thread is the same one who started the "Kelly Clarkson should confess" or whatever thread, or is someone who posted on it insisting that a singer and talk show host owes the world details of her weight loss. Just bizarre that a few posters here feel such a need to think they're exposing celebrities' lies. Maybe they're wannabe TMZ reporters....Who cares? Why does it make these posters feel they're special, or righteous, to carp about what celebrities have done -- and denied -- since long before Ozempic existed?

I have never posted on any of those threads until today, so I'm not a poster that you're upset with, but I think it's disingenuous for celebrities, who have a public platform, to claim that they just started walking more and that's how they magically lost the weight after years of yoyo dieting. It's the same thing as airbrushing pictures of yourself and making people think that it's normal and/or possible to have a 12-inch waist. I wish these drugs would stop being so stigmatized so that people who need them (which is a huge percentage of Americans) could take them without shame. So for celebrities to lie about taking them, to me, is gross. It's not a matter of trying to out someone like some sleazy tabloid reporter.

Kelly was clearing speaking in present tense not past.

Hasn't she always been thin?

I don't care how anyone loses weight, just don't try to sell me crap you didn't use to successfully lose it.
Although I did chuckle at the menopause weight loss excuse. I'm going to assume she was being sarcastic and I love it.

Your expectations for celebrities are high and very idealistic. Just because they have a public platform, that does not mean they're going to use for any particular good other than furthering their careers, which involves looking a certain way, for many of them. Please don't misinterpret me; I'm not saying it's good or right; I'm saying it's reality. Why care so much if Kelly Clarkson lied about using Ozempic or whatever? What does her shame or hiding mean to your life?

And the "stigma" around these drugs, well, what stigma? There might be a stigma among celebrities about using these drugs, but apparently the drugs are easy to obtain for most people because the drug makers and doctors are happy to sell you weight loss meds. Plenty of article in the Post and elsewhere about doctors prescribing this stuff readily. If you want to use these drugs, you can, without shame. Though you might want to look up "phen-fen" and its banning in the 1990s, for a cautionary tale about weight loss through medication. I mean that seriously; I see all the Ozempic love and can only remember the equally intense popularity of super legit, supposedly safe, doctor-recommended phen-fen, and how that turned out.

If I were a celebrity I would get a kick out of lying to the public. You have no right to their private life.

And you should assume they are all on compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide. The stuff is magic. It melts away pounds. And you can get it yourself. Just find an online service that prescribes compounded meds.

Ozempic is very expensive.

Is compounded Semaglutide more effective than Ozempic or Wegovy?

You continually create new threads to complain that celebrities lie about their medication use.

Move on already.

Faced with such nosy parkers as you, I would lie too! You're way worse than they are. They have the right to live their lives without your prying and prodding.

This is true anytime you diet and lose weight. It’s not unique to Oz

No.

See how easy that is? Being bossy on the internet is a waste of time.

This use of "What" for which, who, etc is beyond dumb.

OMG I feel sorry for you. You have a problem using colloquial English and must have difficulty making and maintaining friendships. There is no therapy that can help you.

NP. Are you OP? Because your subject line is objectively wrong, and stupid.

NP. I don’t typically ride with the grammar police, but I have to agree on this one. The punctuation in the subject line is shockingly atrocious. This is an example of illiteracy, not colloquial english.
