Heather Gay Opens Up About Feeling Deceived by Body Positivity Movement After Using Ozempic
After wrapping filming season 17 of The Real Housewives of Orange County, Emily Simpson was recommended by her doctor to try a Type-2 diabetes medication.
In July, she shared, “The doctor suggested a new weight loss drug that was recently FDA approved. I think it would help you lose weight, feel better, and get back to working out again.” She added, “I tried it in December, and it was beneficial for my diet. It kickstarted me into eating better and healthier because it made everything taste bad.”
However, Emily only used the medication for a short period. She now attributes her slimmed-down appearance to working out at the gym seven days a week.
She expressed frustration, saying, “What bothers me is when people attribute my appearance solely to the medication. Yes, I used it nine months ago, but I’ve put in a lot of hard work since then. Give me credit for waking up at 6 a.m. every morning and exercising diligently seven days a week.”
