Scheana Shayis opening up about how recent stress in her life has impacted her health.
On Friday’s episode of herScheananiganspodcast, theVanderpump Rulesstar discussed how she’s recently lost an “unhealthy” amount of weight. She admitted that she made improvements after giving birth to her daughter Summer, now 2, but noticed herself reverting to old habits because she’s been more stressed recently.
“The other day I pulled the scale out of the closet. I don’t keep it out on display anymore because I don’t ever want to get back into that place,” she continued. “But I stepped on it and I was like, ‘Okay, time to up the food and up the weights.’ I don’t want to be in the 1-0s because I don’t think that is a healthy weight for me. And it shows what stress and anxiety does to your body.”

While speaking to nutritionist Lauren Hubert, Shay also explained that her recent weight loss has caused some to believe she’s takingOzempic, an FDA-approved prescription medication for people with type 2 diabetes, for weight loss.
Shay previously joined the conversation surrounding Ozempic and weight loss in February, admitting to PEOPLE that she hadn’t heard of it at the time and how the drug has been misused for weight loss in Hollywood circles.
Ozempic is one of the brand names for semaglutide and tirzepatide — also known asWegovyandMounjaro— which works in the brain to impact satiety.
“I haven’t heard of it,” Shay said before her husbandBrock Daviesadded, “Our secret is just walking around your house. You know, get outside and walk. You want to lose some weight, watch what you eat and go outside.”
