"I have been on the shot. I've been on the shot this year on a very micro-dosed way that helped me a lot. With inflammation, pain, everything. And it got me, I had kept gaining again, and it got me down to this kind of like, I just wanna live a long life."
Pell disclosed she's been using a weight loss medication this year in micro-doses, which she credits with helping inflammation, pain, and modest weight loss of 25 pounds. She framed the decision around longevity and health management for her knee replacements rather than aesthetics, marking a shift from her traumatic past diet experiences.
