Oprah Winfrey says taking a GLP-1 drug such as Ozempic and Wegovy has changed her entire perspective on “thin people.” The media icon, 70, took to her podcast last week to share her experience with an undisclosed type of GLP-1 drug that she began taking in 2023.

GLP-1 medications such as Ozempic and Wegovy have had a transformative effect for those struggling with weight loss. Many celebrities have joined the ranks of those who swear by the medication, including Josh Gad, who opened up about his experience for the first time this week.

If you’re in a calorie deficit – either from dieting or while taking a weight loss drug – these exercises help direct your body to burn more fat instead and hang on to muscle. There’s also a beneficial metabolic effect: muscle tissue burns more calories at rest than fat, which can support long-term weight management.

During his appearance on the " Armchair Expert " podcast on Monday, the "Frozen" actor opened up about taking weight loss medication. "I’m on a GLP-1," Gad revealed during the conversation with Dax Shepard and Monica Padma, noting that this is his first time speaking out publicly about the topic.
