SHARON Osbourne has always been very honest about her weight loss issues.
In September 2023, the TV star unveiled her new slimmed down look, leading to fans wondering how she did it.
How did Sharon Osbourne lose weight?
Sharon Osbourne has admitted to using the drug Ozempic, known to help weight loss, in order to achieve her new figure.
The controversial drug is traditionally used to reduce the risk of heart attacks in adults with heart disease.
It is also used to help lower blood sugar levels in people with Type 2 diabetes.
However, some people are using it for weight loss, despite the fact the drug is not made for this use.

Meanwhile, in the late 90s, Sharon lost 100 pounds after she had a gastric band fitted.

Speaking to E! News, she said of her weight loss: "In my life, the heaviest I was 230 pounds and I'm now under a hundred.
"And I want to maintain at about 105 because I'm too skinny. But I'm trying to have a healthy balance."
Also, speaking with Piers Morgan, Sharon revealed: "I lost 42 pounds now and it's just enough. I didn't actually want to go this thin, but it just happened, and I’ll probably put it all on again soon."
Describing the side effects of using Ozempic, Sharon went on to recall: "At first, I mean, you feel nauseous.
"You don't throw up physically, but you've got that feeling. It was about two, three weeks where I felt nauseous the whole time.
"You get very thirsty and you don't want to eat.
"That's it. That's why I keep saying you've got to keep this stuff away from younger people because they will go berserk on it, and it's not right."
She also said that she no longer uses the drug, and added: "It's just time to stop, I didn't actually want to go this thin but it just happened."
Reflecting further on her experience on Good Morning Britain in November 2023, Sharon confessed she "could do with putting on a few pounds" as she issued a warning about Ozempic.
Speaking to GMB hosts Ben Shephard and Kate Garraway she said: "I fear for teenagers… I'm scared for those aged 16 to 20 as it's so easy to take it and think 'I can eat what I want'.
"It needs to be in the hands of only people who totally understand it.
"I don't want young girls… the world we live in today means everyone wants to be skinny."
Sharon then added: "I could do with putting on a few pounds but my body isn't"
What has Ozzy Osbourne said about Sharon's weight loss?
When asked in the same GMB interview about what her husband Ozzy Osbourne thought about her weight loss, Sharon said: "He's scared, he doesn't like it.
"He's scared something is going to happen to me. 'This is it, you've got skinny – something it going to happen'…
"He's always thinking about the downside and think it's too good to be true."
