GLP-1 is not the only game in town.

The only reason she doesn’t have the GLP-1 face is because she’s brown, not white.

Why would she say anthing with people like you out there? Women can't win.

I think a lot of these stars also have access to meds that aren't available to the general public. So she might have had help, just from another drug.

Which would also line up with “I just eat smaller portions.”

Face and feet look gangly now. She needs to gain it back. Sorry for her weight loss.

Yes, technically true, but she has said things like this as if to imply that is the only factor, which seems highly unlikely.

Whatever she did, her head looks enormous in comparison to her body. Lollipop, I think it's called.

To be fair, she might not be taking a GLP-1. She might just be anorexic or battling some health condition.

But yes the most likely explanation is she’s on a GLP-1. Why not say it? Is it “shameful”?
I know two people IRL who are on it and my response to both was “good for you!” Why not just admit it?

This must related to being a celebrity, like when they rave about how strong their marriage is and then file for divorce a month later. Like they don’t want us to see them as real, normal people. She probably thinks she’s better than us.

Either make no comment about your dramatic weight loss, or mention it's GLP-1.

This new explanation for being overweight for 20 years in the public eye then suddenly dropping 100 lbs of "I just started eating smaller portions" or "I started walking more often" is insulting to the public and fans.

I used to enjoy her work and her off-screen personality. Now, I have no interest in checking out her latest projects because I don't want to support her attitude of putting one over on her fans and treating us like we are stupid.

I would totally be fine if she just refused to discuss her body changes or her health/medical details. But to make others who are still struggling to lose weight by "eating smaller portions" feel like failures is disgusting to me. Of all people, she is one who should understand how defeating this makes her overweight followers or readers feel. And her thin followers don't appreciate her thinking she can treat us like we're fools who can't trust our own eyes.

I love her shows, her book, all of that. This bums me out too, OP! I also felt like her style was so much more colorful and unique before this.

I've come to dislike her for many reasons, this being only one. And I do enjoy some of her work.

lots of threads on this. Please pull up one of the other Mindy/GLP bashing threads to spread your shame and gossip

Why won't she admit that she is taking GLP-1 drugs? It's so strange how she keeps doubling down on that she is just "eating smaller portions." https://pagesix.com/2026/05/20/celebrity-news/mindy-kaling-shares-the-reason-behind-her-scrutinized-weight-loss-journey/

I used to like her, but she is now verging on anorexic levels of skinniness and it bums me out so much. As a fellow 40-something woman who has put on a few pounds, it's just so annoying to me that she was overweight her whole life, but now suddenly acts like through an act of sheer willpower she has gotten insanely skinny. Does anyone truly believe she magically lost all this weight without weight-loss drugs?
