And while she previously shut down rumors<\/a> about taking Ozempic, a medication that entered the celebrity zeitgeist for its weight loss effects, Simpson later revealed on air that she ended up using the GLP-1<\/a> after a doctor recommended it to address some of her health issues, including high cholesterol, zero testosterone and pre-diabetes.<\/p>\nShe called it a “great kickstart” and lost 5 to 7 lbs., but stopped because she didn’t like the way it made her feel. “It made me feel lethargic, and it made me just not have a lot of energy, which was hard with three little kids,” Simpson said. “It does make you feel full,” she said.<\/p>\n\n![\"Emily](\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/xL8EXSFOMYMTpax_qMiFIQ--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTY0MDtoPTkyODtjZj13ZWJw\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/people_218\/a9219a5aeff4c62a00673ec034176f5e\"\/)

In September 2023, she opened up about gaining 40 lbs. at age 42 and being able to shed her weight and “feel like” her old self again in her late 40s. She wrote on Instagram<\/a>, \u201cJust to be clear though\u2026 I rocked a bathing suit on TV for 5 years and never felt ugly or not confident in myself or my body. Not once.\u201d<\/p>\n\u201cI am the strongest (mentally and physically) right now \u2026 at age 47 \u2026 and I will continue to improve myself daily.
