I’ve always been even chubby. Athletic, I’ve always played sports, I just was never in shape,” she recalled.”My thing is more the food because I have the determination. So I had to retrain my mind as to what I could eat, what I couldn’t eat.”Khloe continued, “And I used to be on, not necessarily a diet, but I would make lifestyle changes. I would cut out, let’s say, all sodas, little by little, I would cut things out.”I would do that for a week and then cut out one other thing.

      From gastric band to jaw jabs that ‘changed the shape of everything’… Kelly Osbourne’s face transformation

      by

      KELLY Osbourne has sported many styles over the years and, this week, she stunned fans after revealing a new blonde, slimmed-down look.But the 39-year-old’s altered appearance led many to question whether she jumped on the Ozempic train, like many others in Hollywood.

After going to rehab seven times, she managed to kick her addiction but realised she had switched drugs for food.”I replaced the drugs with food and just got fatter and fatter… I’m an emotional eater,” she told Shape Magazine in 2010.Kelly’s binge-eating and weight gain altered her facial appearance.

It sets you up to hate yourself in a huge way. I was so angry about the things people said about me.”But she admitted she lacked motivation after the dance contest ended and began to put the weight back on. “I didn’t like it one bit,” she said. “I thought, ‘Kelly, you’ve come this far, let’s see what you can really do!’ I would look at myself and think, ‘Ugh!’ To get to the gym, when you already don’t like yourself, is really hard.”The reality TV star had punky blonde hair in 2012Credit: Rex FeaturesIn 2013, Kelly toned down her whacky hair colours from previous yearsCredit: Getty Images – Getty2018 – gastric sleeveKelly began to drop weight once again in 2018, going under the knife to have a gastric sleeve fitted.She lost around six stone and, in 2020, said she had no regrets about the procedure whatsoever.“I did it, I’m proud of it, they can suck s***. I did the gastric sleeve. All it does is change the shape of your stomach,” she told hosts Dax Holt and Adam Glyn on the Hollywood Raw podcast.“I got that almost two years ago.

Damn!!!” wrote one follower.Ricki replied denying the claims and said her weight loss was natural.Ricki Lake shares her hair care routine”NOPE,” Ricki replied.The daytime TV alum shared a new post on Instagram earlier in the year and revealed how she’d dropped the pounds so quickly. The social media post included photos of Ricki and her husband Ross Burningham, 57, being active and flaunting their much-slimmer frames.WEIGHT LOSS TIPSRicki gave insight into the methods behind their weight loss, sharing that the four-month transformation was all natural.”Hi friends. I’ve been wanting to share with you what I’ve been up to these last 4 months.”On October 26th, 2023 I made a commitment to myself to get healthier. My husband, Ross joined me in this effort,” she explained.”Together we have each lost 30+ lbs. I really want to share, because we did this without relying on a pharmaceutical. (Not that there is anything wrong with that).””But neither of us were pre diabetic and both of us felt like we wanted to at least try and do it on our own,” the television star added, potentially referring to the controversial weight loss drug, Ozempic.Everything you need to know about fat jabsWhat you should know about Ozempic, Wegovy, Saxenda and Mounjaro
      Weight loss jabs are a hot media topic at the moment, with hundreds of success stories sharing how they helped them shed the pounds.
      In March 2023, the NHS announced it would make Wegovy, a drug made by Danish firm Novo Nordisk, available on prescription to thousands of obese Brits.
      It contains the drug semaglutide, which is said to have helped reality star Kim Kardashian and Twitter boss Elon Musk lose weight.
      Wegovy, which helped a third of people reduce their weight by 20 per cent in trials, is now available from pharmacies like Boots.
      How do they work?
      The jabs work by suppressing your appetite, making you eat less calories and therefore lose weight.
      To do this, an ingredient found in the fat-busting drug, known as Semaglutide, mimics the role of a natural hormone, called GLP-1.
      GLP-1 is part of the signalling pathway that tells your body you have eaten, and prepares it to use the energy that comes from your food.
      London GP and founder of wellgoodwellbeing.com, Dr Zoe Watson, said: “Your body naturally produces an appetite regulating hormone called glucagon-like peptide-1.
      “These jabs work by regulating your appetite, which can lead to eating fewer calories and losing weight.”
      Aren’t they diabetes drugs?
      Semaglutide, the active drug in Wegovy, was originally sold under the name Ozempic specifically for diabetes patients.
      But they started noticing it helped suppress their appetites, stopping them eating as much and helping them shed the pounds.
      So Novo Nordisk developed Wegovy, which contains the same chemical but at higher doses specifically to aid weight loss.
      Wegovy is not prescribed for diabetes patients.
      Can I get them?
      Wegovy is offered on prescription to obese adults given specialist weight loss treatment.
      The NHS currently also offers a similar drug called Saxenda, or liraglutide.
      Both are only available on Tier 3 and Tier 4 weight management services, which means you have to be referred to weight management clinics led by experts.
      GPs can’t prescribe them on their own either, Dr Watson said. 
      The jabs have to be taken as part of an overall programme to help with lifestyle changes and psychological support to get the best effect from the medication prescribed. 
      But despite being approved for use, supply of Wegovy on the NHS has been postponed indefinitely because of a surge in worldwide demand.
      Supply was also halved in the US because of the skyrocketing demand.
      Are there any risks?
      Like all medicines, the jabs do not come without side effects.
      Around half of people taking the drug experience gut issues, including sickness, bloating, acid reflux, constipation and diarrhoea.
      Dr Sarah Jarvis, GP and clinical consultant at patient.info, said: “One of the more uncommon side effects is severe acute pancreatitis, which is extremely painful and happens to one in 500 people.”
      Other uncommon side effects include altered taste, kidney problems, allergic reactions, thyroid tumours, gallbladder problems and hypoglycemia.
      What other options are there?
      Mounjaro (brand name for tirzepatide) also came onto the market in early 2024.
      Like Wegovy, tirzepatide stems from a drug originally designed to treat diabetes.
      The weekly injection helped overweight people drop more than two stone in 18 months.
      It is available with to order with a prescription online from pharmacies including Superdrug and LloydsPharmacy Online Doctor.
      It works in a similar way to Wegovy and Saxenda, but is more effective.
      Dr Mitra Dutt from LloydsPharmacy says: “Based on clinical trials, 96 per cent of people were able to lose more than five per cent of their body fat using Mounjaro. In similar trials, 84 per cent of people lost more than five per cent of their body weight on Wegovy, and 60 per cent on Saxenda.
      “Mounjaro works by activating two hormonal receptors (GIP and GLP-1), which enhance insulin production, improve insulin sensitivity, and work to decrease food intake.”

      “Being 55 and in perimenopause, I was a bit worried that my body would not drop the lbs like it had in the past,” she said.READ MORE SUN STORIES”I am so so proud of us. I feel amazing.
