Jon Gosselin Has Dropped Over 50 Pounds After Trying Semaglutide: His Weight Loss Transformation

Nightlife

Jon previously claimed that his DJ career aided in his 30-plus pound weight gain, as he would often resort to late night gas station food after a gig.

Years of Hardship

After his very-public 2009 divorce from ex-wife Kate Gosselin, Jon claimed he didn’t have time to focus on himself or his health, saying, “It just wasn’t a good time in my life.”

Lifestyle Changes

Despite turning to help in losing the unwanted weight, Jon claimed it’s “all diet.”

“I can only eat what I need,” he told Us Weekly. 

Positive Side Effects

In addition to weight loss, the semaglutide helped the former reality star stop drinking.

“It’s really nice because it helped me stop drinking, and it helped me get my appetite under control with less eating. I was able to really refocus my diet that way,” Jon told Page Six. “I just focused on consuming what I need to consume in a healthy manner.”

Feeling Healthy

Jon opened up to Page Six in April 2024, two months after starting his semaglutide journey, saying he wished he had started sooner.

“You know what’s annoying? The regret of not starting it 10 years ago,” Jon said. “I feel amazing! Like, why didn’t I do this sooner? Maybe it wasn’t the right time.”

Showing Off the Results

After losing more than 30 pounds thanks to using a semaglutide, Jon revealed his new body during a Jersey shore beach getaway weekend with girlfriend Stephanie Lebo in June 2024.

Sharp Dressed Man

Jon’s slim down was noticeable as he wore a fitted blue jacket, white shirt and shiny aviator glasses in a July 9, 2024, mirror selfie. Stephanie gushed, “How lucky am I?”

Both Jon and daughter Hannah follow a high-protein diet that consists of protein shakes, bars, fiber, lean meats and fish. They also limited such items as pasta and soda they drink, while actively avoiding fast food.

Summertime

Less than a week later, the former reality star proudly showed off his shirtless 50-pound lighter physique while sharing a kiss with Stephanie in a swimming pool.

“I work out at the beach and sometimes I don’t wear a shirt because it’s 100 degrees outside now,” Jon told ET. “Before I would just sweat through it, now [I take it off]. I have these things called abs. They just appeared.”
