Popular actress Kathy Bates is currently winning hearts with her ongoing series Matlock Reboot. While the Oscar-winning actress is known for her brilliance on screen, there is something else that has left her fans in awe. It is none other than Bates’ 100-pound weight loss. But what did Bates have to say about Ozempic’s role in her journey? With rumors swirling, fans are eager to know the truth behind her transformation.

So, what's so intriguing about Kathy Bates' weight loss and what has the actress said about her fitness journey? Here's everything you need to know.

In her recent interview with People, Bates candidly talked about her fitness journey that led her to lose 80 pounds thanks to her healthy lifestyle and diet. She continued to make progress, eventually losing another 20 pounds with the help of the semaglutide drug Ozempic.

However, the Misery actress was disappointed to see people giving all her fitness credits to the drug. As a result, she shed some light on the matter. She stated, "There's been a lot of talk about the fact that I was able to do this just because of Ozempic. But I have to make it clear to people that this was a lot of hard work for me, especially during the pandemic. It's really hard to say you've had enough."
