Dolores Catania supports her decision to use Ozempic for weight loss, saying that many celebrities do the same, whether openly or privately.

She feels good using it and mentioned that she’s researched it thoroughly and spoken to many doctors, none of whom have said it’s bad for her. She also shared that her boyfriend, Paul Connell, has had great results with Ozempic. He lost 50 pounds and no longer needs blood pressure medication.

Dolores Catania was one of the first celebrities to openly say she uses Ozempic for weight loss, but she told Page Six in April 2023 that she does it for medical reasons.

She explained that she’s dealing with menopause, thyroid issues, and inflammation, which make it hard for her to lose weight. Despite working out and eating well, she was still gaining weight due to these issues.

While Catania has had good results with Ozempic, some people have warned about possible side effects.

Catania previously said she began taking Ozempic because she was struggling with menopause, inflammation and other issues.

Sharon Osbourne has said she’s lost too much weight from using Ozempic and now struggles to gain weight back.

Recently, Lottie Moss, Kate Moss’s younger sister, had to go to the hospital after getting very dehydrated and having a seizure because she took too much of the drug.

A recent study also found that Ozempic has been connected to 162 deaths in the US.

Kate Middleton cancer update as decision made about Princess’s royal return

Kate Middleton is the center of attention as she fights cancer.

After causing a sensation with her public and media absence, Kate released a pre-recorded video in which she disclosed that tests conducted after her scheduled stomach surgery revealed the existence of cancer.

She has since freed up her calendar, and the Palace has not made any announcements about her possible return to royal duties.

A top assistant, though, appears to have more knowledge of what has been happening behind closed doors and made a suggestion on when Kate might resume her royal duties.

The Princess of Wales is “excited” to be at the center of the introduction of a new project that might grow the UK economy by £45.5 billion ($57 billion) annually, despite her attempts to avoid the spotlight. According to The Daily Mirror, a study from eight British companies will be released this week by Kate’s Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood. The research will outline five areas where businesses may provide help to children under five and their caretakers. Additionally, it will draw attention to the enormous long-term advantages of early childhood investment.
