@siva111111

why do they all say diet and exercise first ?

@jujubees711

I'm glad she finally admitted it. She was saying earlier that she changed her diet and was walking a lot more since she moved to New York City.

@autumncheung145

DUH!!!!! I mean...she was overweight for 10 years then comes back after 1 summer and is super thin....Like who didn't already know? I think there should be no shame related to how you lose weight. I think she looks amazing so good for her!!

@vicg7367

Duh of course!! Nobody drops 60# in 2 months!!

@ShadowHeart28

I remember her saying in an interview that she was pre-diabetic and something about a thyroid problem. I'm not surprised to hear this. I have a hormone imbalance and if I had her money I would do it to. 🤷🏻‍♀️

@rizzwifey05

So Wegovy or Monjauro or Zepbound. Why hide it?

@OLIIE-gs5rj

They’re just voicing what everyone with common sense already knew. For decades some of these celebs have been overweight, and then sudden weight loss by everyone at the same time .

@jillrobinson6767

There shouldn’t be a shame but she should not lie about it. Why not fully disclose to help others

Why won’t she say what she’s on?

@karenmonson9893

In this instance she's done everything right and I respect her for that. Having pre- existing conditions of thyroid and diabetes she was in the care of a doctor when this came to light. He advised her wisely with the medication. She also made changes to her diet and livestyle changes talking about it in a positive mannor! I think she looks great! " You go girl"!

@stephenmartinez6726

People need to understand something Kelly was pre- diabetic … which these meds are made for people who are pre- diabetic and diabetic…. So literally no one should be attacking her for using the medication for it’s true purpose, she just lost weight due to using it as well

@user-bi1vs8uj1q

She's using these injections like others over weight.. She's just now being somewhat HONEST

@chichinghui

@TODAY, you may need to blur the numbers that a guy is walking and showing behind Chloe Melas in this video. Not so sure why he is doing that....something is not right about that.

Back in 2021, I was misdiagnosed with Type 2 diabetes, not only once but twice. In my case, I was losing weight quite quickly, even before my diagnosis. I was and still am a relatively healthy person. I was overweight many years ago, but this was around about the time I was healthy, so when I was losing weight, I wasn't aware of it. I was given a medication called 'Gliclazide' I was told by my doctor that it stops the body from taking the sugar. I live in the Uk, so I was 12 stone 5 lbs and I went down to 9 and a half stone, through not only personal stress that I was experiencing at the time, but diabetes was not helping either, so there was no sole contributor it was pretty much, 'all the things'. I was told about my new diagnosis last year, I now have "LADA" which is a latent type 1 diabetes, I take long and short-acting insulin, and certain medications and have a sensor as well, which helps a ton! Well, that's it!

@Battlekitten-sl2vn

I’m so happy for her. Weight loss medication helps facilitate better eating and gives increased energy to exercise more. It’s a miracle drug and I hope it becomes more affordable as a maintenance drug.

@Mary10538

Very expensive and some insurances do not cover it

@brodyhill5350

It’s not ozempic, it’s something else… yeah sure, why are these people so afraid of telling the truth? People out there could benefit from knowing what she took! But she can’t share the secret. All the good meds are saved for the rich and celebrities. Unfair.
