Chrissy Metz reveals taking weight loss drug to control her cravings
In a recent interview with PEOPLE, Chrissy Metz shared that she tried diets, but it didn’t help her lose weight. The This Is Us actress mentioned that she is in her perimenopause and there were obesity issues within her family. Chrissy admitted that she was very much skeptical about taking the weight loss drug, GLP-1, for years and assumed that they would not work or would give her horrible effects. But so far, the drug has given her a positive experience. In her words:
“I just wanted to take care of myself. I’m not getting any younger. I’m in perimenopause, and there were obesity issues within my family and with my father, and I felt like I’ve tried so many modalities, whether it was diets or therapy, and none of it really worked for me. It’s been great! I’ve enjoyed the benefits that I didn’t think that would come, because I was very skeptical. I was like, ‘I’m not taking this medication. I don’t wanna do this. It’s not gonna work for me.'”
