Amy Schumer is feeling parched.
I’m a big fan, and I just loved seeing Amy Schumer really embrace herself! She posted this amazing picture on Instagram Stories on March 31st – she was rocking a burgundy one-piece swimsuit and sunglasses, and the caption was just perfect: “Thirsty enough for ya?” It was so confident and fun!
Amy, who separated from her husband Chris Fischer in December after seven years together, has often been open about her personal life. This includes discussing her weight loss journey following a diagnosis of Cushing syndrome in 2024.
The 44-year-old shared in a now-deleted Instagram post that she lost 50 pounds, not the 30 pounds previously reported. She explained her weight loss wasn’t about appearances, though she admitted feeling good about looking better. Her primary motivation was health; she had a serious medical condition causing severe swelling and posing a life-threatening risk, which was noticed by online followers and has since been resolved.
Cushing syndrome is a serious hormonal disorder where the body makes too much cortisol. If not treated, it can be fatal, according to the National Library of Medicine. Amy shared that her weight loss was due to a few things, including cosmetic surgery she’d had and the medication Mounjaro.
Amy tried using Ozempic to help with weight loss, but she experienced some unpleasant side effects. The drug, originally intended for people with type 2 diabetes, has also been used by some celebrities hoping to lose weight.
She remembered being stuck in bed, feeling sick and weak. “I was vomiting and just had no energy,” she said on The Howard Stern Show in January 2025. “It’s strange because other people seem to handle it fine, which is great for them.”
As a lifestyle expert, I’ve seen how substance use can deeply impact family life. One woman I worked with described a heartbreaking situation with her six-year-old son, Gene. She shared that being under the influence made it incredibly difficult to be the mom he needed. She’d be completely exhausted, in bed, and he’d ask her to play – simple things like tag – and she just didn’t have the energy. She described feeling like she was fading away, unable to connect with him.
Ultimately, the results of Ozempic weren’t worth the toll it was taking on her.
She said she lost weight rapidly – thirty pounds, in fact. While she felt good about how she looked, she was too weak to even get out of bed, and wondered what the benefit of losing weight was if she felt so awful.
For more stars who have been candid about their own weight loss journeys, keep reading.
The country singer shared that his looks have caused him to question himself many times, even though he’s had a very successful career.
He shared on the February 2026 episode of The New York Times’ Popcast podcast that he was confident in his ability to perform well, put on a great show, and write songs people would love. However, he also admitted his biggest fear was being overlooked simply because of his appearance – that he might not get a chance to prove himself.
Luke says he’s struggling to get in shape, calling it a frustrating problem he can’t solve, but he doesn’t want to use weight-loss drugs like GLP-1 to help.
He said he was more afraid of the risks than he was excited about the potential rewards. He’s committed to losing weight, but he wants to do it in a healthy, sustainable way, not through a quick fix.
He admitted that everyone’s approach is valid, but explained he personally needs to focus on winning and pushing his own limits.
The Bravo host detailed his health and fitness journey using an Ozempic-like drug.
During a September 2025 episode of his SiriusXM radio show, Andy Cohen Live, the 57-year-old revealed he’d lost a significant amount of weight over the summer by using a GLP-1 medication. He explained he’d been unhappy with his weight and, after discussing it with his doctor last year, decided to try the medication. His doctor had previously suggested it not only to help with his weight, but also to address plaque buildup in his arteries and high blood pressure, noting its overall health benefits. He ultimately agreed to start the treatment.
He explained that it really helped him control his cravings, which had been a major struggle, and motivated him to be more disciplined with both his diet and exercise.
The singer shared in November 2024 that he had lost 120 pounds.
Jelly Roll explained he shared his personal challenges openly, specifically on his wife Bunnie XO’s podcast, Dumb Blonde, because he wants to be honest with people about his difficulties.
Okay, so he was saying – and I was hanging on every word, honestly – that everyone thinks his weight is what got him where he is, but he wants the world to understand it’s the opposite! He made it despite everything, you know? It wasn’t because of it. It’s just… incredible. He really wants people to get that.
The talk show host says she’s feeling better and has lost weight after learning she was pre-diabetic. She told People magazine that she’s been following her doctor’s advice, something she hadn’t done consistently for a couple of years. She also mentioned that she sticks to a high-protein diet most of the time, which she finds beneficial anyway.
She is a Texas girlie after all, “so I like meat—sorry, vegetarians in the world!”
The mother of River and Remington is settling into her new life in New York City and enjoying the change of pace. She joked that walking around the city is great exercise, and she’s been really into infrared saunas lately. She also recently got a cold plunge after friends convinced her to try it.
She decided against taking the popular weight loss drugs that many people are talking about, even though her doctor encouraged her for a long time. As she shared on The Kelly Clarkson Show in May 2024, she was hesitant due to existing thyroid issues. While many assume it was Ozempic, she clarified that she was offered a different medication – one that helps process sugar, as her body struggles to do so naturally.
Everyone’s getting health advice! The media personality is feeling great and sharing what helps her stay healthy. She told Entertainment Tonight it’s not just one thing – like her treadmill workouts, hikes, drinking plenty of water, and eating well – it’s a combination of everything.
Oprah Winfrey recently shared that she’s using a weight loss medication, though she hasn’t revealed which one. In an interview with People magazine, she expressed immense relief that a medically approved option exists, calling it a “gift” and a way to finally move past the shame and ridicule she’s experienced in the past. She stated she’s finished with being shamed by others, and more importantly, by herself.
The HGTV personality demonstrated a remarkable life change by sharing details of his two-year fitness journey in an Instagram post from July 2023.
He explained that sometimes what feels like the right path actually requires a change in direction to help you improve. While he used to do hot yoga with his wife, Heather Rae El Moussa, he realized he wasn’t following a consistent fitness plan, monitoring his diet, or getting professional advice.
Nutritionist Sean Torbati emphasizes the importance of both healthy eating and regular exercise, like hot yoga, which he does once or twice a week to improve his mental and physical well-being. He believes that staying motivated and persistent is key to success.
He had a turning point when he truly understood how much he wanted to prioritize his own health and well-being—for himself, his family, and a long life. That’s when he fully committed and started taking action!
The cohost of The View shared that she used Mounjaro, a drug for type 2 diabetes, to lose weight after gaining weight in 2021.
She revealed on a recent talk show that she once weighed close to 300 pounds. She explained that she had previously used steroids and other substances, but has since lost weight with the help of a medication called Mounjaro, which she currently uses.
The Grammy-winning artist is aware people noticed her impressive physical transformation, which she achieved through a combination of diet, exercise, and a weight loss medication containing GLP-1.
In a March 2025 Instagram post, she shared that she’s been prioritizing her health after her second pregnancy. She worked with a nutritionist, made significant changes to her daily routine, and began exercising with a trainer. She also mentioned using medication, specifically Mounjaro, with the support of healthcare professionals, and expressed feeling fantastic as a result.
The reality star is confident in herself, with or without anyone’s approval. She recently addressed rumors about weight loss, stating in an Instagram post that she hasn’t had any medical procedures to help her lose weight, and she’d rather not discuss it further.
Although she’s lost 100 pounds, bringing her weight down from 385 to 285, including 50 pounds after her mother, Barbara “Babs” Thore, passed away in December 2022, she’s been at 285 pounds for nearly a year.
Ultimately, she said, she appreciates the compliments, but she’s uncomfortable focusing on appearances – both her own and others’.
The actress, knowing she’s considered attractive no matter where she goes, recently shared her honest thoughts on body image in an Instagram post last February.
The Food Network host shared a bikini photo from 2014 and talked about body image, explaining that she weighs 150 pounds despite being 5’4″. She doesn’t weigh herself anymore, as she feels societal weight standards are pointless and that she bought into them for too long.
Free from the stress of dieting, she realized she was a kind, funny, and thoughtful person. She emphasized that your worth and personality shouldn’t be defined by your size or weight – you are valuable exactly as you are.
As for anyone that might not agree, she summed up, “F–k ‘em.”
The musician says he feels fantastic and like a rockstar after losing 55 pounds. In an Instagram post from April 2023, he admitted people have been asking about his weight loss and how it’s affecting his performances. He shared that he’s really enjoying being on stage and feels healthier than ever.
He explained that becoming a father in 2022 was a major source of motivation. “Becoming a dad made me want to get healthy,” he said, “so I quit drinking soda and started eating better, hoping to be around for my daughter for a long time.” He added that he plans to quit smoking and drinking alcohol eventually, but considers himself a patient person and will tackle those goals when the time is right.
She admitted feeling a lot of pressure to lose weight after giving birth to her son, Sidney, in November 2022. She told TopMob News that losing 85 pounds became her main focus. She explained she was so focused on it because she wanted to avoid people talking about her body and just be left alone.
She’s not suggesting everyone follow her intense method. “It took a lot of effort,” she explained. “It wasn’t enjoyable, and I was constantly hungry, but I’m very pleased with how it turned out.”
Oh my gosh, you won’t BELIEVE his journey! He’s been through so much with his health, but I’m so proud of him for how far he’s come. He used to crash diet – seriously, he’d lose like 60 or 70 pounds in just three months, then… well, he’d fall right back into his old ways. He even admitted he’d ‘reward’ himself with junk! But this time is different. He’s really focused on making lasting changes, taking it slow with exercise and just moving. He said he’s getting to the age where he knows he can’t just sit around anymore, and honestly, it’s so inspiring to see!
He’s kept off 200 pounds by making healthy choices: he walks a lot and eats a Mediterranean diet focused on fish, vegetables, and nuts. He told Men’s Health that staying healthy is an ongoing process, but one he enjoys.
After my dad and brother both passed away from heart attacks, and then learning I had type 2 diabetes myself, I was so inspired by Drew Carey’s decision to completely change his diet. It was amazing to see the host of The Price Is Right commit to eating healthier – a real turning point for him, and honestly, a huge motivation for me too!
As a lifestyle expert, I’m often asked about quick ways to feel your best. One client recently shared his secret to success with me, and it’s pretty straightforward: he cuts out almost all carbs! Seriously, he told Entertainment Tonight he avoids everything – no bread, pasta, pizza, corn, or even beans. He sticks to things like egg whites and Greek yogurt with a little fruit in the mornings. He admits to a very occasional treat, but generally, it’s a completely carb-free lifestyle paired with a lot of cardio.
And to wash it all down, “I don’t drink anything but water,” he said. “No coffee, no tea, no soda.”
After losing an incredible 440 pounds, the star of 1000-lb Sisters has experienced some amazing new opportunities, all shown on her TLC show. She’s now been able to fly on an airplane, buckle her seatbelt comfortably, ride in the front seat of a car, go up in a hot air balloon, and enjoy rides at Disney World.
In a recent TikTok video, Slaton shared how much it means to her to be able to buckle her seatbelt without needing an extension. She explained that it’s a simple thing many people don’t think about, but she hadn’t been able to do it for years, making it a significant achievement for her.
I’m really proud of what I’ve accomplished,” the reality star explained. “I’ve worked hard to lose weight and now I’m finally enjoying life to the fullest. It feels good to be able to say that I’m truly living it.
Cheers to this healthy approach from a former star of Vanderpump Rules! She’s back on the Jenny Craig plan and hoping to see progress, but she also wants to prioritize her well-being for her son. She shared with TopMob News in February that while losing weight would be great, it’s even more important to set a good example for her and Jax Taylor’s son, Cruz, by living a healthy lifestyle.
The future star of The Valley explained, “I really want to model a healthy lifestyle for him. Exercise is crucial for me, both physically and mentally. It’s important to me that he sees me prioritizing wellness.”
The musician’s dedication to intense strength training has clearly produced results, showing in her physical transformation.
In a 2023 interview with People, the star shared how proud they are of their progress. They explained that fitness is now a core part of their life, and they’ve consistently prioritized their health through regular exercise and dedication.
She’s been working incredibly hard, and mentioned she might start offering intense fitness classes, which she playfully calls ‘Hottie Bootcamp.’ These workouts are seriously challenging – think deadlifts, jump rope, lunges, and mountain climbers. In one video, she admitted the exercises are incredibly tough, saying, ‘It really burns!’ but added with a laugh, ‘You can definitely see the results in your thighs.’
When the pandemic began in March 2020, just a few months after the former Pretty Little Liars star had her first daughter, Atlas, she admitted to TopMob News that she felt incredibly unmotivated. With everything stopping around the world, she decided to just let go and not worry about it.
I’ve been following her journey, and it’s been so relatable. She completely abandoned her workout routine and her usual balanced diet, especially when 2020 hit. Honestly, after those first few months of being a new mom, things just spiraled into eating whatever felt good, and she really paid the price. She’s been missing the feeling of being strong and confident in her body, and it’s something I think a lot of us can understand.
She was excited but also a little unsure when she heard about Openfit’s 4 Weeks of Focus program led by trainer Kelsey Heenan.
After consistently starting her day for a month with warm water and lemon, plus a 30-minute workout that mixed cardio, HIIT, and strength training, she was completely sold on the routine. She explained her new approach to food, saying she allows herself treats but also adds healthy options – like putting spinach on pizza. She was surprised by how much stronger she felt, admitting she’d never lifted weights that heavy in her life.
The fitness influencer, known online as Fat Girl Fed Up, recently shared on Instagram that she didn’t reach her weight loss goal of dropping below 200 pounds. However, she decided to focus on her progress and still celebrate her achievements, proving she doesn’t let minor setbacks discourage her.
She reminded herself that any step forward counts, even if it’s a small one. She acknowledged she’d put in a lot of effort this week and found comfort in the fact that losing weight takes time – she didn’t gain it all at once, so she won’t lose it instantly. Her mantra was to just keep moving forward, regardless of the challenges.
She’s confident she can achieve her health goals. “I’m going to reach my ideal state,” she stated, “whether it takes a week or a year, we’ll get there eventually. Just keep moving forward, believe in yourself, and focus on making progress, not achieving perfection.”
The Queer Eye star made significant progress with their health and fitness goals, which allowed them to pursue more challenging gymnastics routines.
As a lifestyle expert, I’m always thrilled to share personal wins, and I’m so excited about my own! I started working with a nutritionist back in April, and I’ve lost 35 pounds since then. Honestly, my motivation wasn’t just about general health – I really wanted to reshape my body to support my gymnastics training and career goals. It’s amazing what a focused approach to nutrition can do!
Let me tell you, when you’re starting something new, like a big fitness or lifestyle shift, don’t expect overnight miracles! I’ve learned from experience that it takes consistent effort. I personally didn’t see any real changes for a full three weeks of working out and really focusing on my diet. So, if you’re hoping to see a difference, give it at least three weeks of dedicated work – that’s what it took for me, and it’s a realistic timeframe to keep in mind.
Before turning thirty in 2022, the former Disney Channel star decided to start a new workout plan.
The actor, who is married to model Barbara Palvin, shared a story about how he used to be self-conscious about his body as a child and wore a shirt while swimming. He explained that in his late twenties, he decided to make a change and focus on building muscle. He captioned an Instagram post from April, calling it his ‘meat head post’ as a way to show off his transformation.
He said it was a tough workout, moving between weights and kettlebells, but he’s proud of how far he’s come and plans to keep going.
Everyone has ups and downs, and life isn’t always flawless. This became clear when the actress openly shared on Instagram in January 2024 that she had regained 13.6 kilograms after successfully reaching her goal weight of 75 kilograms in 2020.
Wilson admitted she’s been struggling to maintain her healthy habits due to a busy filming schedule. She’s previously discussed overcoming emotional eating and switching to a diet focused on protein instead of carbohydrates, but now finds it difficult to fit in her boxing and hiking workouts.
Wilson confessed that stress caused them to gain weight, and while they knew it shouldn’t bother them, it did make them feel down.
Giving up his favorite beers? Okay. And dedicating himself to intense daily workouts – like the P90X program, kickboxing, and running – as he told Men’s Journal? No problem.
For Chris Pratt, the most challenging aspect of his 60-pound weight loss—going from his role as Andy Dwyer in Parks and Recreation to a superhero in Guardians of the Galaxy—was the massive amount of water he had to drink: one ounce for every pound he weighed each day.
“I was peeing all day long, every day,” he explained. “That part was a nightmare,”
Even though he was already somewhat known, like Cher Horowitz might say, the former star of Clueless realized fans were surprised to learn he’d be playing the new Marvel hero, Ant-Man.
Paul Rudd recalled that when he was cast in the movie, many people were surprised, reacting with something like, ‘Paul Rudd as a superhero? Is that really happening?’ He shared this with Variety magazine in 2015.
He understood his task perfectly. He described his training as following the “Chris Pratt method” for action films: cut out all enjoyable activities for a year, and then you’ll be ready to play the hero.
After having her older children, the author of the Just Eat book returned to the South Beach diet to help her feel like herself again. She told TopMob News that the high-protein plan worked quickly. “I started the program, exercised, and immediately felt better,” she said.
Before anything else, she’s enjoying every moment of the time after giving birth. Decker, a mom to Vivianne, Eric Jr., Forrest, and Denver (born in February 2024), emphasizes, “I always tell mothers not to worry about losing weight right away. Focus on feeding your baby, showering them with love, and letting your body heal. You’ll naturally know when you’re ready to focus on yourself. Don’t let your mind pressure you to lose weight—you’ll feel when you have the energy to be active again.”
Getting in shape for his role has been a great perk, and it’s led to a noticeable six-pack. He’s been working out for 90 minutes at a time and eating a much healthier diet – lots of lean protein and vegetables, and cutting out sugary drinks like soda, as he told People magazine.
What really motivates him is achieving his ambitious life goals, particularly those related to the outdoors. He’s determined to get in shape so he can climb challenging rock faces in Yosemite, and he dreams of hiking the entire Pacific Crest Trail – a route stretching from Mexico to Canada and back along the American coast.
After giving birth to her daughter Kingsley in September 2022, the former Twilight star realized something important: she acknowledged in an Instagram post in January 2023 that her body had changed, and she was coming to terms with that.
If she ever feels overwhelmed, she has a helpful coping mechanism, just as crucial as getting back into her exercise routine after having a baby.
She told TopMob News that looking into her daughter’s eyes – whom she calls her “sweet angel” – helps her feel grateful instead of focusing on her own flaws. It’s a trick she uses because she finds it’s easy to be too hard on herself, no matter what she does.
