During an episode of The Kelly Clarkson Show, Kelly Clarkson opened up about her weight loss journey, revealing that she's been taking medication to help with her health. Clarkson, 42, shared that her doctor had been encouraging her to try the medication for two years due to her worsening bloodwork. Despite her initial hesitation, Clarkson eventually decided to give it a try, noting that the medication aids in breaking down sugar, which her body struggles with due to her thyroid problems. She clarified that she's not on Ozempic, a medication for type 2 diabetes, but rather a different one. Clarkson discussed her weight loss journey with Whoopi Goldberg, who also shared her own experience with weight loss and medication. Clarkson previously mentioned her struggles with weight and pre-diabetes, but she's now committed to her health journey with the help of medication and lifestyle changes.
