I never want that, and I don\u2019t want that for my kids either.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">According to Whitney, she balanced her Ozempic usage with a Weight Watchers plan.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cThose two are not correlated at all,\u201d the <i>Secret Lives of Mormon Wives <\/i>star said on the podcast. \u201cI started Weight Watchers [and] I partnered with them.

I\u2019ve loved the weight loss, [but] I\u2019ve hated how I felt on it. \u2026 You\u2019re nauseous, I feel like I\u2019m easily irritable but it\u2019s probably because [the drug] was also suppressing my appetite.
