Jon Gosselin ‘Regrets’ Not Using Ozempic Earlier After Losing 32 Pounds

Jon Gosselin is finally discussing his massive weight loss, sharing that he used the popular drug known as Ozempic.

The reality star lost 32 pounds in just two months and said the medication improved his eating habits and helped him stop alcohol intake. He’s also having body contouring done to aid his weight loss.

Gosselin’s significant weight loss comes after he spoke about realizing he’d become “complacent” with his health. The reality star is just one of many celebrities who’ve spoken about Ozempic use.

Gosselin was in attendance at the grand opening of the Beverly Hills Rejuvenation Center in West Hollywood and finally opened up about his weight loss to PageSix.

The former “Jon & Kate Plus 8” star revealed that he lost about 32 pounds in two months from using semaglutide, popularly known as Ozempic and Wegovy.

During the interview, Gosselin seemed to have no regrets about starting the medication and was pleased with its effects.

He said, “You know what’s annoying? The regret of not starting it 10 years ago. I feel amazing! Like, why didn’t I do this sooner? Maybe it wasn’t the right time.”

Gosselin uses an FDA-approved prescription medication for treating type 2 diabetes. The drug impacts satiety in the human brain, which directly affects appetite and digestion.

In recent years, the drug has become very popular for fast weight loss, especially for Hollywood celebrities.

During his interview, Gosselin said that using the medication has significantly improved his eating habits and helped him stop taking alcohol.

He said, “It’s really nice because it helped me stop drinking and it helped me get my appetite under control with less eating.”

The reality star said he liked the fact that the drug helped him “refocus” his diet. He added, “I just focused on consuming what I need to consume in a healthy manner.”

The former reality TV star further revealed that after his massive weight loss, he booked appointments for body contouring at the Beverly Hills Rejuvenation Center.

He said, “I do CellSound, which they offer here. It’s ultrasonic visceral fat removal, and that can be the hardest kind of fat to get rid of.”

Gosselin continued, “You can do a million crunches, but sometimes you just can’t tighten up that skin. But with this, you … get closer to your goal.”

The weight loss and health changes in Gosselin’s life came not long after he opened up about how his job as a DJ has affected his health. During a February interview with Entertainment Tonight, he shared that he had become “complacent” with his body and health.

“I just got complacent with my health. I’m in a comfortable relationship. I love my girlfriend, Stephanie. We just eat whatever we want, do whatever,” Gosselin said. “I think it’s very hard in our area. I mean, we live in Pennsylvania in a very rural area. We eat at gas stations.”

He explained that it’s exhausting to start searching for proper meals once work hours are over, with “nowhere to stop.”

Gosselin added, “I don’t eat for like 12, 14 hours. So, I’ll eat dinner at three o’clock in the morning, then drive to a gig.”

Gosselin is just one of many Hollywood stars who have made statements about the use of Ozempic and Wegovy. The list also includes Oprah Winfrey, Scott Disick, Tracy Morgan, Elon Musk, Amy Schumer, and most recently, Dr. Terry Dubrow.

During an interview with Page Six, after he first used Ozempic in January, Dubrow said he thought the drug was “amazing.”

He noted, “I wanted to try it because so many of my patients were on it and I wanted to see what it was like when you’re not diabetic and you only have 10-15 pounds to lose.”

However, in March, after he stopped using the medication, Dubrow seemed unhappy with his body and eager to resume usage. He told E! News, “How am I doing off Ozempic? I’m overweight and chubby. There’s more to love, but I’ll tell you something: I’m off it, but I plan on going back on it when it’s appropriate. Like we have a vacation, and after that, I’ll come back. It’s like the new Botox, Ozempic. I love it. It’s so good.”
