HGTV's Egypt Sherrod Can't Get Away From Ozempic Rumors No Matter How Hard She Tries
All Egypt Sherrod had to do to spark rumors that she was using Ozempic was post a photo of herself in a red dress on Instagram in December 2024. The HGTV star used the caption to bring attention to her weight loss, specifically her cinched waist. Sherrod attributed her weight loss to a faster metabolism, which she had achieved through getting eight hours of sleep consistently. However, many commenters had a hard time believing that the former "Married To Real Estate" host had achieved her transformation naturally.
To defend herself against the Ozempic allegations, Sherrod clapped back at one speculator, writing, "Sad this hateful comment is from another real estate professional, a black female at that smh." Shortly afterward, Sherrod shared an Instagram reel to offer more insight into her weight loss transformation. To start, the HGTV star confessed that she had tried taking weight loss medication to aid her in her journey at some point, but it was to no avail due to her thyroid issues.
Sherrod then detailed the natural remedies she had adopted to achieve her transformation, professing, "The old adages work! Get sleep, drink water, but not just any water ... alkaline water infused with lemon, cayenne, chlorophyll, and whatever other tinctures are needed for YOUR body." The former radio host also felt that eliminating sugar from her diet and only eating food packed with natural ingredients had gone a long way in her journey. Sherrod was also in favor of natural remedies that help ease anxiety, and is a proponent of incorporating natural anti-inflammatory ingredients into everyday life.
Plastic surgery has played a part in Egypt Sherrod's transformation
Egypt Sherrod is among the many celebrities who have opened up about their plastic surgery experience. In May 2022, the real estate broker shared an Instagram post to reveal that she had undergone her second breast reduction surgery. Sherrod detailed her reasons for going under the knife, writing, "I am tired of the neck and back pain, the migraines because of tension on my nerve, and tired of wearing two, sometimes three bras at a time under my clothes to minimize the appearance." She later added, "I want to fully enjoy every moment with my family, every walk, every workout without chronic pain."
She was also happy to report that she was incredibly satisfied with how her breasts looked as she recovered from the procedure. Sherrod had undergone her first breast reduction surgery in 2008, before she had welcomed two daughters. In a May 2022 Facebook post, the radio personality said that she had also undergone a breast lift with her second reduction surgery. In addition to being an HGTV star who can't dodge the Ozempic rumors no matter how hard she tries, Sherrod is also someone who constantly faces speculation that she's had additional work done.
In February 2022, she shared an Instagram post featuring a screenshot of her defending herself against speculation that she had enhancement work done on her butt by explaining that the changes in her body were due to the fact that she had given birth to a child while in her 40s. However, she also made it abundantly clear that she would not tolerate any negative commentary about her body if she ever decided to undergo a "mommy makeover."
