Brooks Nader is getting brutally honest about going under the knife.
The actress from Love Thy Neighbor, who has previously discussed getting cosmetic procedures, recently confessed she regretted one specific surgery she underwent.
She recently admitted in an interview with People magazine that she had liposuction several years ago, despite feeling hesitant to share the information.
Despite undergoing a fat removal procedure, 29-year-old Brooks wasn’t completely happy with the outcome, as she dealt with some unforeseen side effects.
She said she still feels terrible about it, explaining she simply didn’t require it. She described it as something that caused unwanted changes and lingering effects.
The reality star now seems to have changed her mind about plastic surgery, saying, “We should focus less on that and prioritize being healthy.”
Brooks hasn’t just relied on liposuction for weight loss. She’s also mentioned using a GLP-1 medication, which she believes led to more modeling work.
She explained to Bustle that if she wasn’t getting job offers, she’d ask her agency to get feedback from potential clients. The direct feedback she received was that she needed to lose 30 pounds. She wasn’t upset by this, saying she doesn’t dwell on negativity and simply focuses on how to meet the stated requirements. Her approach was to accept the feedback – that they wanted her to lose weight – and figure out how to make it happen.
She explained that her career really began to flourish when she started using GLP-1 medication. While she doesn’t endorse or justify it, she personally lost thirty pounds and subsequently landed all the roles she auditioned for. She emphasized that everyone’s experience is unique.
In a season one episode of Love Thy Nader, Brooks discussed her use of GLP-1 medications. Her sisters, Mary Holland, Grace Ann, and Sarah Jane, voiced their worries about it, especially before a big photoshoot for Maxim magazine.
She admitted that the pressure to meet unrealistic beauty expectations in the industry sometimes leads to quick fixes. With several important photoshoots on the horizon, she felt immense pressure to look her best and was willing to do anything to achieve that.
Many stars have also been candid about their own weight loss journeys. For more, 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 enjoyable songs. However, he also admitted his biggest fear was being overlooked simply because of his appearance – that he wouldn’t get a chance to prove himself.
Luke says his efforts to get in shape feel like a frustrating puzzle, but he doesn’t want to use weight-loss drugs like GLP-1 medications to help him.
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 clarified that there was nothing wrong with others approaching things differently, acknowledging it was a matter of personal preference. However, for him personally, his priority was to win and to push himself to be his best.
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 this 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 to address both his weight concerns and underlying health issues like plaque buildup in his arteries and high blood pressure, noting its broader health benefits. He ultimately agreed to start the treatment.
He explained that it really helped him manage his strong cravings and stay disciplined with both his diet and exercise routine.
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 struggles.
He explained that his success wasn’t because of his weight, but rather despite it. He wanted everyone to understand that he overcame that challenge to achieve his goals.
The talk show host has been feeling healthier lately. After learning she was pre-diabetic, she started focusing on her health and lost weight. 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 noted that she sticks to a high-protein diet most of the time, which benefits her overall well-being.
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 focusing on wellness, recently getting into infrared saunas and even a cold plunge – after a lot of encouragement from others!
She decided against taking the popular weight loss drugs, even though her doctor recommended them for two years. 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 she was offered a different medication – one that helps process sugar, as her body doesn’t do so effectively on its own.
I was so excited to hear all about how she’s feeling amazing lately! She shared her wellness secrets with Entertainment Tonight, and honestly, it’s so inspiring. It’s not about one quick fix, she explained – it’s about making a lot of healthy choices all around, from her workouts (she loves her treadmill and hiking!) to drinking plenty of water and eating really well. It’s truly a whole lifestyle approach, and I’m definitely taking notes!
As a longtime admirer of Oprah, I was so moved by what she shared recently. She talked about finally finding a weight loss medication, and it wasn’t about a quick fix – it was about feeling relief and reclaiming her health. She said it felt like a gift to have a medically approved option, and honestly, it resonated deeply with me. More than anything, she’s made it clear she’s done with the shame – both from others and from herself – and I find that incredibly empowering. It’s a really brave and honest step, and I’m so happy for her.
The HGTV personality demonstrated a remarkable life change, 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 consistently working out, 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 – for overall well-being. He believes that staying motivated and persistent are key to achieving your goals.
Honestly, it all clicked for me when I really understood how much I craved feeling amazing and staying healthy – not just for myself, but for my family, and for a long, full life! That was the exact moment I got totally focused and just went for it! It was like a switch flipped, and I knew I had to make it happen.
The cohost of The View shared that she used Mounjaro, a medication 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 she’s now lost weight with the help of a medication called Mounjaro, which she currently uses.
Okay, let’s talk real talk. As someone who follows wellness trends, I’ve noticed everyone’s buzzing about this Grammy-winning artist’s incredible transformation! She’s been open about how she achieved it, and it’s a combination of things – really focusing on her diet, committing to exercise, and, yes, she’s also been using one of those newer GLP-1 medications to help with weight loss. It’s all about finding what works for you, and she’s just sharing her journey.
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 training with a fitness professional. She also mentioned using medication (Mounjaro) along with professional support, and is happy with the positive results, saying she feels great.
The reality TV star is confident in herself, with or without praise. She recently addressed rumors about weight loss, posting on Instagram in February, “I really don’t like talking about this, but I haven’t had any surgery or medical procedures to lose weight.”
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 almost a year now.
Simply put, she said she appreciated the compliments, but she doesn’t like focusing on appearances—either her own or anyone else’s.
I’ve always known she’s stunning, no matter where she goes – Cleveland, LA, you name it! I was so glad to see her share her honest thoughts on body image in that Instagram post she put up in February. It was really refreshing to hear.
The Food Network host shared a 2014 bikini photo and reflected on her past struggles with weight. She explained that at 5’4″ and 150lbs, she’s considered overweight by some standards, but she’s stopped weighing herself because she doesn’t care about those labels and regrets letting them bother her for so 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 just 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 performing and feels healthier than ever.
He explained that becoming a father in 2022 was his biggest motivation for getting healthy. He quit drinking soda and started eating better, wanting to be there for his daughter for a long time. He plans to tackle quitting smoking and drinking alcohol next, but says he’s taking things one step at a time.
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.
Okay, so she doesn’t exactly want everyone to follow her crazy intense plan, and honestly, she admitted it was brutal! She said it was SO much work, and totally miserable, and she was constantly starving. But, and this is the important part, she’s genuinely thrilled with how it turned out. I mean, she suffered, but she loved the results, and that’s all that matters, right?
I’ve been following John Goodman’s health journey for a while now, and it’s been inspiring to see his dedication. He used to crash diet – lose a ton of weight quickly, then fall back into old habits, rewarding himself with unhealthy food. But he told me a while back that this time was different. He wanted a slow, steady approach – just moving more and exercising regularly. He’s getting to the point where he knows he has to stay active, and I really admire that!
He’s kept off 200 pounds by making healthy choices: he walks a lot and follows a Mediterranean diet rich in fish, vegetables, and nuts. He told Men’s Health that staying healthy is an ongoing effort, but one he enjoys.
Following a type 2 diabetes diagnosis and the loss of his father and brother to heart attacks, the host of The Price Is Right decided to improve his diet and focus on healthy eating.
He told Entertainment Tonight his secret to staying in shape was cutting out all carbohydrates. That means no bread, pizza, corn, beans, or anything starchy. He sticks to egg whites or Greek yogurt with a little fruit for breakfast, and only occasionally indulges in a cheat meal.
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 many exciting firsts, all shown on her TLC show. She’s now able to fly on airplanes, buckle her seatbelt, 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 extender. She explained that it’s a small 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.
The reality star explained that she’s proud of what she’s accomplished, especially losing weight and truly enjoying life. She feels like she’s finally living to the fullest.
The former Vanderpump Rules star is focusing on health and wellness. She’s back on the Jenny Craig plan and hoping to see progress, but she told TopMob News in February that her priority is being a good role model for her son. While she’d like to lose weight, she wants to show healthy habits to her and Jax Taylor’s son, Cruz.
The future star of The Valley explained, “I really want to model a healthy lifestyle for him. Exercise is a big part of my life and helps me feel good mentally. It’s important to me that he sees and participates in taking care of his well-being.”
All her hard work and dedication to strength training has clearly paid off for the musician, resulting in a noticeable physical transformation.
In 2023, the star shared with People magazine how far they’ve come. They explained that staying fit isn’t just a goal, but a way of life, and they’ve consistently made time for exercise and prioritized their well-being.
Okay, seriously, she’s been killing it with her workouts, and she just casually dropped this bomb – a ‘Hottie Bootcamp’ is coming! She described it, and it sounds insane – deadlifts, jump rope, lunges, mountain climbers… the works! I saw one clip where she was doing it and she actually said, ‘This burns SO bad,’ but then immediately added, ‘But you guys ARE seeing these thighs, right?!’ I’m already signing up, honestly. It’s going to be brutal, but worth it if it gets me results like hers!
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 suddenly stopping, she decided to just let go and not worry about it.
I’ve been following her journey, and it was tough to see her old routines fall apart after having a baby. She used to be all about balance, but things got chaotic in 2020, and she admitted to really letting go with her diet. Honestly, she just wasn’t feeling her best, and she really missed feeling good about how she looked and felt in her body. It’s so relatable!
She was excited but also a little unsure when she first heard about trying Openfit’s 4 Weeks of Focus program with 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 realized it had made a real difference. She described herself as completely changed, saying she’d never felt stronger. Despite always being active, she was surprised to find she could now lift heavier weights – up to 40 or 50 pounds – which she hadn’t been able to do before. She also embraced a balanced approach to eating, allowing herself treats like pizza while still incorporating healthy foods.
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 knew she’d put in a lot of effort this week, and that was enough. She figured it would take time to see results, since the weight didn’t come on overnight, and she needed to stay focused and keep moving forward regardless of the challenges.
I’m so inspired by her! She just knows she can achieve everything she’s working towards. She always says, ‘I’m getting to my wonderland,’ and it’s not about rushing, but about knowing it will happen, maybe soon, maybe later, but definitely eventually. Her motto is amazing – just keep moving forward, believe in yourself, and focus on making progress, not on being perfect. It really resonates with me.
The Queer Eye star was determined to improve their fitness to tackle more challenging gymnastics, and they’ve really succeeded in transforming their health.
In an August 2022 TikTok video showcasing their weight loss, they revealed they started working with a nutritionist in April and had lost 35 pounds. They explained their motivation was to improve their physique for gymnastics and their career.
I’ve been following their advice closely, and they’re so right – don’t expect instant results! The author of Love That Story shared their own experience, saying it took a full three weeks before they started to see any difference. They really emphasized that it was three weeks of consistent workouts and a change in diet before they noticed anything at all. It’s good to know it takes time and effort, and to be patient with the process.
Before turning thirty in 2022, the former Disney Channel star decided to start a new fitness plan.
The actor, who is married to Barbara Palvin, shared an Instagram post in April explaining that he used to be self-conscious about his body as a child and wore a shirt while swimming. He decided in his late twenties to transform his physique and embrace a more muscular build, calling the post his ‘meat head post’.
It was a tough workout, switching between weights and kettlebells, but he’s happy with how far he’s come and plans to keep going.
Everyone has ups and downs, and things don’t always go as planned. 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 back in 2020.
Wilson admitted she’s been struggling to maintain her healthy habits due to a busy filming schedule. She’d previously shared how much effort she put into overcoming emotional eating and switching to a diet focused on protein instead of carbs.
Wilson confessed that added stress caused them to gain weight, which negatively impacted their self-esteem. They acknowledged it wasn’t rational, but admitted it was how they felt.
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? Absolutely.
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.
Oh my gosh, I remember when they announced Paul Rudd was going to be in a superhero movie! Everyone was SO shocked, I swear! He even told Variety back in 2015 that most people were just like, ‘Wait… Paul Rudd? A superhero? Seriously?’ It was the best, because nobody expected it, and now look at him! He’s Ant-Man, and he’s perfect!
He realized what needed to be done. He described his training as following the method Chris Pratt used for action films: remove all enjoyable activities for a year, and then you can convincingly 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 mother of four – Vivianne, Eric Jr., Forrest, and Denver (born February 2024) – emphasizes, “New moms should focus on everything except losing weight. After having a baby, prioritize feeding and bonding with your little one. Your body needs time to recover, and you’ll naturally know when you’re ready to focus on fitness. Ignore any pressure to lose weight quickly – listen to your body and wait until you feel physically up to being active again.”
Getting in shape for his role has been a great perk! The actor from Modern Family has been working out for 90 minutes at a time and eating a much healthier diet. He says it’s all about lean protein, lots of vegetables, and cutting out sugary drinks like soda.
What really motivates him is achieving a long list of personal goals. He’s particularly focused on outdoor adventures. “I have a lot of life goals beyond acting, and many of them involve being outdoors,” he said. “I want to get in shape to climb some of the large rock formations in Yosemite, and I’m also determined to hike the Pacific Crest Trail, which runs the length of the West Coast from Mexico to Canada.”
After giving birth to her daughter Kingsley in September 2022, the former Twilight star realized something important: she admitted 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 strategy – just as important 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 focus on gratitude instead of being overly critical of herself. She considers this a helpful trick, because it’s easy to be self-critical no matter what you do.
