Sharon Osbourne has said that despite her best efforts, she is unable to put weight back on after taking Ozempic.<\/p>\n
The former X Factor judge and wife of rockstar Ozzy Osbourne has been open about her noticeable weight loss in recent months.<\/p>\n
She\u2019s admitted to using Ozempic, a drug offered as a treatment for people with type 2 diabetes, but which some have been using to lose weight.<\/p>\n
Earlier this week Sharon said she \u2018didn\u2019t want to go this thin\u2019 and has now said she\u2019s struggling to regain the 30 pounds she\u2019s lost.<\/p>\n
Appearing on Talk TV this week, she spoke emotionally about having a gastric band, a gastric sleeve and taking diet drugs after struggling with her weight in the past.<\/p>\n
\u2018There isn\u2019t one [I haven\u2019t tried],\u2019 she shared.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u2018My entire life and I\u2019m seventy, I have fought weight, my entire life.<\/p>\n
\u2018It\u2019s affected my life to such a point. I had the gastric band, and had that removed, because it didn\u2019t work after a while. I then had the sleeve and you can\u2019t reverse the sleeve because they cut your stomach in half\u2026 it is what it is. You are stuck with that.\u2019<\/p>\n
Sharon then continued: \u2018After a while, it\u2019s all up here [in your mind]. It\u2019s all mental.\u2019<\/p>\n
She then went to reveal that taking Ozempic had an unexpected side effect.<\/p>\n
\u2018Now it\u2019s got a reverse effect on me personally, I don\u2019t know for everybody, I\u2019m sure not. But I can\u2019t put on weight now, no matter whatever I eat,\u2019 she explained.<\/p>\n
\u2018I\u2019m stuck at this weight. And it\u2019s like, my entire life I\u2019ve wanted to be a certain weight, never got there, and now I have and it doesn\u2019t suit me and I don\u2019t like it and I can\u2019t change it.\u2019<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
She concluded: \u2018The thing about weight it\u2019s a personal thing\u2026 for me it caused depression.\u2019<\/p>\n
While Ozempic is meant to only be used for people with diabetes, there is now a shortage sparked by others trying to secure a supply.<\/p>\n
However, Sharon has previously said she didn\u2019t want her use of it to be a \u2018dirty little secret\u2019.<\/p>\n
She also insisted using Ozempic to lose weight wasn\u2019t \u2018cheating\u2019, and that people should \u2018lighten up\u2019 about the use of the drug.<\/p>\n
