SHANNA MOAKLER EXPOSES HER STUNNING WEIGHT LOSS TRANSFORMATION AFTER TURNING TO CONTROVERSIAL DRUG MOUNJARO

Get ready for a major dose of celebrity gossip, folks! Shanna Moakler, the 50-year-old model and reality star, has sent shockwaves through social media with her jaw-dropping weight loss transformation. And we're not just talking about any old swimsuit selfie – we're talking about a full-on, sizzling hot, and utterly enviable figure that's got everyone talking.

The mom of three, who has been open about her struggles with grief and weight gain after the loss of both parents in 2023, recently revealed that she's been taking the pharmaceutical solution Mounjaro to help her shed pounds. And let's just say, it's clearly working wonders! The once-in-demand reality star took to Instagram on Friday to showcase her stunning new physique in a black-and-white zebra-stripe swimsuit from Fashion Nova, which left fans gagging over her curves.

The model and reality star sizzled in a black-and-white zebra-stripe swimsuit that showcased her svelte figure and prominent cleavage. She admitted to taking Mounjaro in June 2024

But what really caught our attention was Shanna's cheeky caption, where she poked fun at fan perceptions of her as being lazy and spending most of her day in bed. "I saw on your MTV show all you do is stay in bed," she joked, referencing a storyline from her days on Meet The Barkers, where she played up her love for lounging around the house.

However, the reality star set the record straight, claiming that she was actually more active than fans thought. "Couch potatoes walked so bed goddesses could run… I’m not lazy, I’m horizontal healing," she quipped. Talk about a clever comeback!

And it seems like Shanna is feeling extra confident and sassy these days, thanks to her impressive weight loss results. In June of last year, the model revealed that she had started taking Mounjaro after putting on a significant amount of weight following the tragic loss of both her mother Gail in January 2023 and father John just seven months later.

'I stopped dieting. I stopped exercising. I just ate like s**t,' the mom-of-three told People, attributing the change to her grief over the back-to-back deaths of her parents; seen with her dad

In an interview with People at the time, Shanna opened up about how she fell into a "very dark place" after losing her parents. She admitted to stopping dieting and exercising altogether, turning to food as a way to cope with her grief. "I was so devastated, and I missed my fing mom and dad. I was like, 'I'm going to fing eat the pain away,'" she confessed.

But it seems like Shanna has since found a new lease on life – and a healthier relationship with food – thanks to Mounjaro. Although she hasn't revealed exactly how many pounds she's lost, her latest swimsuit photos are proof that she's been keeping up an impressive pace.

And if all this wasn't enough, the reality star also shared a sweet photo of her boyfriend, actor Greg Vaughn, on Instagram Stories. The 51-year-old Daytime Emmy Award winner (2018) snapped a black-and-white mirror selfie, which Shanna captioned: "My bf calls me from work and teaches me with his hotness it's a problem [sic]."

'I was so devastated, and I missed my f***ing mom and dad. I was like,
