Jackie ‘O’ Henderson Responds To Rumors She’s Using Celebrity Diabetes Drug To Lose Weight After Losing 40lbs In Just Five Months
Jackie ‘O’ Henderson has thrown rumors that she’s on a popular diabetic drug used by Hollywood stars to lose weight.
The 48-year-old, who previously struggled with yo-yo dieting for decades, kicked her bad habits five months ago and has since lost a whopping 18 kg.
Kyle Sandilands, whose wedding to Tegan Kynastan was on Saturday, told Jackie that he had been asked by several guests if she was on a popular weight-loss drug used by celebrities.
“That diabetic mediation people talk about, I’m not taking that,” Jackie replied firmly.
“Honestly you guys can do it…but I will say I think alcohol and exercise was a big thing I’ve never done before, so that was kind of the kicker for me.”

Kyle noted that Jackie isn’t much into needles, so it’s unlikely she would feel comfortable injecting diabetic drugs.
He added, “She was on the WW [Weight Watchers]but she still cheated, drank p*ss and ate and cheese, and she gave her the cookies and cheese and put the wine bottle away.
Jackie, who recently started playing tennis regularly, pointed out that giving up alcohol and embracing exercise was “something she’d never done before.”
The mother-of-one also confirmed that she didn’t even drink alcohol at Kyle’s wedding.
Diabetes drugs such as Ozempic and Wegovy have gained immense popularity among the Hollywood elite after being the first drugs proven to help with weight loss.
The drugs act like a hormone in the brain, making people feel less hungry and delaying the clearing of food from the stomach.
Celebrities such as Elon Musk, Chelsea Handler, and Remi Bader have all admitted to using antidiabetic drugs to get rid of unwanted fat.
It comes after Jackie recently reflected on her weight loss journey in a touching social media post.
“I came back to WW last year because I wanted to get my health back on track and I know their program works for me,” she wrote.
“Losing weight was never about how I looked in the mirror, but rather about an overall sense of well-being and trying to get my energy levels back,” she continued.
“5 months ago I was 40 pounds heavier and had zero energy. My health suffered, so I decided to make a complete lifestyle change.’
