If she gains weight, ppl bully her. If she loses weight, ppl bully her. Let her be.

Why can't people just leave other people alone?

My Medicaid covers Wegovy. I have a BMI of 43 and have been seeing a Bariatric Center for almost a year. They were just able to get the medication in stock and have me approved to be on it because I am considered obese, have high blood pressure and am at risk for other heart problems. So far, I have only had 2 injections and have lost 10 lbs. However, I radically changed my lifestyle the same week. I committed to it. I joined a mental health program, quit smoking marijuana, started eating clean, smaller portions and started going to the gym at least 3 days a week. I am SO grateful for this medication. I know I've only been on it less than 2 weeks but I feel so much more hope. I'm only 31 and felt so lost in life with no job, no friends and no family. I want my life back. This is the start of that.

Kelly stating that she has thyroid issues.It affects your metabolism greatly.And that explains why her weight is always gone up-and-down as long as she's happy.Like who cares what these people think?Having an issue with your thyroid is actually kind of serious

people are mad about celebs and ozempic, cuz there's a wealth disparity of people who can afford ozempic.

How can anyone ever hate Kelly Clarkson?

[kzhemh]

She originally did say she lost weight by only eating better and exercising. We felt betrayed because she was saying this is possible if you have the willpower. Instead of lying don't say anything at all.

[batgurrl]

The hypocrisy about this topic is ridiculous. Whoopi laid it out very well

[catherinegrant]

Nobody is entitled to your medical information. However, let's all have an open conversation about weight and how it isn't just about calories in calories out.

I completely understand why people would be upset. When Kelly lost all this weight, she gave credit to watching what she was eating and working out. There was no mention about a weight loss drug and this was over 2 months ago. Why lie about it/ hide it? You're going to get criticized anyways because you're in the public, so just be honest from the beginning!

[carriej]

The issue is not that she used a medication that assisted in her weightloss, and known to help with weight loss. The issue is she flat out DENIED using any medication that assisted in her weight loss. She said "I've just changed my eating habits". Bull S. She thinks we're stupid.

[SB-njbk]

The reason she gets backlash over her weight loss is because she lied initially about how she did it. She said she took acv gummies and people spend $300 plus on these shark tank gummies each month, that she promotes. Is THAT fair???? NO

[jeanieferretti]

There is always people who want to judge others. Those people need to fix their own problems!

“Who they ate for dinner” Oda Mae Brown jumped out 😭😭😭

[aneeqrehman]

Whoopi said it, let people share things when they feel like it and stop bullying or pressuring people to share when they don’t won’t to

[IMHTP]

Kelly got skinny practically overnight. She'd have to walk from NY to LA and back to lose weight that fast. 💉

[skprincess]

People are upset because she was LYING about it pretending like walking in New York City was doing all this which is a joke....

The lack of transparency and the absolute lying is why she's facing the backlash....

[brepastor]

I am super happy for everyone that gets access to the medications. It really sucks fot the ones that desperately need it but can't afford it and don't get access to it.
:(

[joiisler]

She really didn’t owe anyone an explanation at all. Let alone “full disclosure.”🙄

[jillharling]

I’m getting semiglutide from a compound pharmacy….. 295 month….. I love it! I feel like a normal person now! Not hungry all the time, craves rarely. Let people do their own thing.
