Chrissy Metz pushes back on weight-loss critics and promotes GLP-1 partnership

While promoting her Broadway role in “& Juliet,” Chrissy Metz appeared on “The Tamsen Show” and opened up about beginning a GLP-1 medication to manage her weight. She criticized the endless commentary she receives, citing a distant relative’s “congratulations” and contrasting it with strangers who never mention her size. Metz explained that the drug quiets a constant internal “food noise,” a change she pursued after her father died from obesity-related issues.

Previously skeptical of GLP-1 drugs, she now feels better on the treatment. She also discussed the medication on “Today” and announced a collaboration with telehealth company Ro, which provides weight-loss medications.
