Reality Star Stassi Schroeder Shares Her Secret to Postpartum Weight Loss

Stassi Schroeder, who is currently pregnant with her second child, has openly expressed her interest in trying Ozempic in the future. During an interview on the "Call Her Daddy" podcast, the 34-year-old Vanderpump Rules alum stated that she has extensively researched the drug and believes it to be both safe and healthy.

Schroeder playfully remarked, "I mean, it's basically like taking vitamins, right? Good for you!" She then joked that she finds it hard to believe that anyone who hears about Ozempic wouldn't be curious about its effects. "Let's be real, if you've heard of Ozempic, you've definitely thought about it," quipped the author of Next Level Basic. "If you tell me otherwise, you're lying."

While Ozempic is primarily marketed as a medication for managing blood sugar levels in adults with type 2 diabetes, it has recently gained popularity as an off-label weight loss drug. However, it's important to note that this medication is not approved for casual weight loss, as Dr. Thomas Su exclusively stated to We in March.

Schroeder believes in the importance of honesty when it comes to the use of drugs like Ozempic, and hopes to be a role model for transparency. However, she acknowledges the potential backlash and criticism that may come with being open about her use of the medication.

The author of Off With My Head expressed her desire to find a less arduous way of losing baby weight after giving birth in September. She hopes to avoid the strict regimen she followed after giving birth to her first child in January 2021. Schroeder, who resides in Louisiana with her husband Beau Clark and their two-year-old daughter Hartford, announced in March that she is expecting a baby boy. The "Straight Up With Stassi" podcast host revealed that she consumed bone broth for dinner for six months after her first pregnancy, but she is unenthusiastic about repeating this practice.

Schroeder admitted in February 2021 that she underestimated the difficulty of recovering after giving birth to Hartford. Sharing a mirror selfie on Instagram, she revealed that seven weeks postpartum, she was still relying on her maternity jeans, and even wearing Spanx to conceal her residual baby bump. Despite hoping to see her pre-pregnancy body every morning, Schroeder acknowledged the irony of being so fixated on bouncing back when her body had just accomplished the incredible feat of creating, carrying, and delivering a new life.
