AceShowbiz - Comedian Tracy Morgan has shared his experience using Ozempic for weight loss, revealing a surprising twist.
While many celebrities have praised the effects of the diabetes drug, Morgan joked that he had the opposite result. On "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon", he quipped, "I've learned to out-eat Ozempic. I gained 40 pounds."
Morgan's comments come after Oprah Winfrey's special on weight loss medication, where she admitted to using Ozempic in combination with exercise. Winfrey praised the medication for helping her manage her weight without excessive dieting.
Despite Morgan's humorous quip, he previously revealed that Ozempic had cut his appetite in half, which he complemented with a workout routine. However, he emphasizes that Ozempic is not a magic bullet and still requires a commitment to exercise and a healthy lifestyle.
Other celebrities who have admitted to using Ozempic include Amy Schumer and Chelsea Handler. While Schumer later discontinued use after experiencing side effects, A-listers like Oprah Winfrey and Morgan continue to vouch for its effectiveness when used responsibly.
Morgan's weight loss journey is a reminder that while weight loss medication can be a helpful tool, it's important to consult with healthcare professionals and maintain healthy habits to achieve and sustain weight loss goals.
