With summer approaching and interest in dieting increasing, celebrities' experiences with obesity treatments such as Wegovy are also drawing attention. Alongside accounts that reported weight loss effects, there are candid disclosures of side effects or experiences of stopping the medication.
Recently Pungja shared on her YouTube channel footage of spending a vacation at an ocean-view pool villa. Appearing in a black one-piece swimsuit, she captured attention with an even slimmer figure.
Pungja recently said she succeeded in losing a total of 32kg. However, the weight-loss process was not smooth. She confessed that she had previously used Wegovy and Saxenda among obesity treatments but experienced side effects and stopped. She said she then combined dietary management and consistent exercise to lose weight healthily.
Ralral also succeeded in losing weight by improving lifestyle habits instead of using drugs. In a recently released video, Ralral revealed her weight as 69.85kg and happily said she had returned to the 60kg range for the first time in three years. She said she lost about 6 to 7kg over roughly three months and added, "There is no big secret. Eat less and exercise and you will lose it."
She went on to say, "I tried Wegovy and Mounjaro, but the side effects were too severe," and revealed, "I was in the 10% who experienced side effects. I vomited both ways, so I had it once and stopped immediately." She added that she intended to lose weight slowly and healthily.
By contrast, Kim Jun-Ho said he succeeded in losing weight with Wegovy but later experienced rebound weight gain. On the YouTube channel Junho Jimin, Kim Ji-Min revealed, "Oppa gained 10kg," and Lee Sang-min also exclaimed in surprise and elicited laughter, saying, "His jaw suddenly got bigger."
Kim Jun-Ho said he had lost weight with Wegovy while preparing to marry Kim Ji-Min, but later experienced rebound weight gain, and he has confessed that he also experienced side effects of increased irritability while using the medication.
Interest in obesity treatments has been rising recently, but as with celebrities' cases, awareness is growing that effects can vary individually and that side effects or the possibility of rebound weight gain may occur, bringing renewed attention to the importance of combining healthy diet and exercise when dieting.
