Francesca Manzini reveals 16kg weight loss and denies use of Ozempic

Italian comedian and presenter Francesca Manzini has shared her physical transformation on social media, revealing a weight loss of 16 kilograms since May. To demonstrate her progress, she showcased a pair of jeans she had been unable to wear for approximately one year.

Manzini addressed public speculation regarding the use of weight-loss medications, explicitly denying the use of drugs such as Ozempic, Wegovy, or Mounjaro. She attributed her results to discipline, willpower, and a structured detox program conducted under the guidance of medical professionals, including an endocrinologist and a psychotherapist.

The transformation follows Manzini’s previous public discussions regarding her complex relationship with her body, including past experiences with eating disorders and body shaming during her time at Striscia la Notizia. She emphasized the importance of health, urging followers to only use medications under strict medical prescription, stating, “health is a sacred thing.”
