Andy Cohen has admitted to using a weight loss drug to help achieve a trimmer physique. 

The Real Housewives franchise executive, 57, made the admission on his Sirius XM Andy Cohen Live show on Tuesday. 

The host said he had lost ‘a good chunk of weight’ over the summer ‘micro-dosing’ a GLP-1 medication, but did not say which. 

Micro-dosing involves taking a smaller dose of the drug than what the manufacturer recommends, which might have helped Cohen avoid some unpleasant side effects like nausea, bloating, and diarrhea.

‘I was really unhappy with my weight,’ the entertainment personality told his listeners.

‘My doctor and I discussed this last year, and they recommended a GLP-1 several times to not only tackle my weight concerns but also to address plaque in my arteries and high blood pressure.’

Andy Cohen, 57, credits his slimmer, trimmer self to the use of a weight loss drug, saying he 'lost a good chunk of weight' by micro-dosing a GLP-1 medication

Andy Cohen, 57, attributes his slimmer, trimmer appearance to the use of a weight loss drug, noting that he ‘lost a significant amount of weight’ by micro-dosing a GLP-1 medication.

Although initially reluctant to do it, Cohen said the drug was ‘actually is beneficial to a lot of elements of health and I finally said yes.’

GLP-1 medications help manage blood sugar, reduce appetite, and slow stomach emptying, so the person taking it feels fuller for a longer time.

For the media mogul, this aid helped him reduce snacking. ‘I have to say, it really helped me with cravings, which I was struggling with,’ he said.

‘I would have a drink, and then there are all these cookies and craft services,’ he mentioned about the food provided for workers on the set of Watch What Happens Live. ‘It’s pasta night, it’s pizza night… my cravings for all that stuff lessened.’

Using the medication forced him ‘to be more disciplined with my diet and with working out.’

His workout regimen included lifting ‘heavier weights’ during training sessions and watching what he put in his mouth. 

‘No snacking or excess drinking. I am still drinking, but not crazy and perhaps the most importantly, I’m not snacking after the craving [I get] after I drink.’

 Cohen acknowledged how lucky he was to have access to medical care and insurance covered part of the cost. Without insurance drugs such as Ozempic or Wegovy can be as much as $1,200 a month. 

‘This is a revolutionary drug,’ he said. ‘I’m so happy also to have been on this journey under the care of a doctor and working with a trainer to make sure that we have done this right.’

Cohen quit using the medication after reaching his goal. ‘I will say, my appetite returned from the micro-dose, but I feel like it caused me to reframe my relationship with food because it was sh*tty before this.’

The Bravo star said it ‘would be completely hypocritical not to share,’ his weight loss secret since he has asked others about theirs so often, ‘and then be the guy who’s suddenly lost 25 lbs. but isn’t mentioning it.’
