AceShowbiz - Melissa Gorga, a cast member of "The Real Housewives of New Jersey", makes a shocking revelation during her appearance on "Sherri". She claims that she is the only one who does not use Ozempic for weight loss.
She emphasized her commitment to fitness and expressed support for her co-stars' use of the medication if it helps them feel and look better. Dolores Catania and Margaret Josephs, Gorga's "RHONJ" castmates, previously acknowledged using Ozempic and praised its benefits.
Catania stated she has lost significant weight and feels healthier while taking the diabetes drug, explaining that it suppresses her appetite and improves her blood work. Josephs echoed Catania's sentiments, sharing that it aided her weight loss efforts, particularly after menopause.
Despite the popularity of Ozempic among celebrities and reality show cast members, including Emily Simpson, Heather Gay and Jennifer Fessler, some have expressed concerns. Jackie Goldschneider criticized Ozempic as an "eating disorder in a needle," reflecting on her own battle with anorexia. Danielle Cabral criticized those who use Ozempic when it is intended for diabetics.
The use of Ozempic and other weight loss medications has sparked controversy, with some celebrities confessing to using them while others deny their usage. The medication is primarily prescribed for diabetic patients, but its effectiveness for weight loss has led to widespread use among those seeking to lose weight.
Despite the different approaches to weight loss within the "Real Housewives" franchise, all the cast members seem to prioritize their health and well-being. Gorga's fitness routine, while not involving Ozempic, demonstrates her commitment to maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
