Melissa Gorga is focusing on her fitness routine.
The “Real Housewives of New Jersey” star claimed she’s the “only one on the cast that does not take Ozempic” during an appearance on Wednesday’s episode of “Sherri.”
“I work out really, really hard. To each their own for everything, but no, I don’t take it,” Gorga told host Sherri Shepherd.
The reality star, who appeared alongside husband Joe Gorga, added that she’s “happy” her co-stars taking the weight loss drug “feel good” and “look good.”
Melissa Gorga claimed she’s the only “RHONJ” who’s not taking Ozempic.
“I work out really, really hard,” she explained on “Sherri.”
“To each their own for everything, but no, I don’t take it,” she added.
The discussion came up after Shepherd, 57, recalled Dolores Catania and Margaret Josephs claiming “most of the cast” have used the Type 2 diabetes medication to shed pounds.
“I don’t know why [people are quiet about it] because there’s no shame in it,” Catania, 53, said on the May 2 episode.
“If a doctor gives it to you, if you’re doing things right, you’re becoming healthier by losing weight, it’s a bunch of great things that come along with this.”
She went on to say she’s at her “high school weight” and has no plans to stop using Ozempic.
Gorga noted that she’s “happy” some of her cast members are seeing favorable results from the Type 2 diabetes drug.
She also said they “look good.”
“I’m gonna be honest because it’s right,” she added.
“After menopause, it’s so hard to lose weight,” Josephs, 57, commented. “And then you’re shamed for it if you’re heavy.”
Praising the medication, she continued, “It shuts off that food noise, my blood work is great. … [Before Ozempic] I couldn’t do anything. It doesn’t matter if I was eating right, exercising, so I don’t know why there’s any shame in it if it’s helpful to people.”
Gorga’s comments came after “RHONJ” stars Dolores Catania and Margaret Josephs touted the medication on “Sherri.”
“I don’t know why [people are quiet about it] because there’s no shame in it,” Catania said in early May.
While Catania and Josephs have been open about their weight loss journeys, not everyone on the “RHONJ” cast agrees.
Last year, Danielle Cabral accused people who use Ozempic of taking it away from those who need it to manage their diabetes.
Jackie Goldschneider also claimed last June on a Page Six Instagram post last June that she never plans on taking Ozempic.
Meanwhile, Teresa Giudice was called out by fans who thought she started taking Ozempic — but she has never admitted to it.
Several Bravolebrities, in addition to Josephs and Catania, have been open about their use of Ozempic and similar weight loss drugs.
“Real Housewives of Orange County” star Emily Simpson, “Real Housewives of Salt Lake City” star Heather Gay and “RHONJ” newbie Jennifer Fessler have all confirmed they’ve used the medication to help them lose weight.
