Teddi Mellencamp sought weight-loss meds amid stage 4 cancer battle

Teddi Mellencamp, the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum, spilled on her podcast that she begged her doctor for GLP-1 weight-loss drugs while battling cancer. She gained weight from steroids but got shut down. Joking about the irony, she quipped about living her best life without the meds.

Hold the phone—Teddi Mellencamp just served some real talk on her 'Two Ts In A Pod' podcast. 😲 The reality star admitted she asked her doc for GLP-1s after steroids packed on the pounds during her Stage 4 melanoma fight. But nope, doctor said no dice, leaving her hilariously frustrated: 'You tell me to live my best life ... but where are my GLP-1s?' 👀

People who lose weight using GLP-1 medications such as Ozempic and Wegovy may be judged more negatively than those who lose weight through diet and exercise — and even more negatively than people who do not lose weight at all — according to a new study led by Rice University psychologist Erin Standen.

Women taking GLP-1 medications such as Ozempic and Wegovy showed about 30 percent lower odds of developing breast cancer in a large observational study.

Scientists have developed a hybrid obesity treatment that uses GLP-1 and GIP signals to deliver a metabolic enhancer directly into cells. Early tests in mice showed greater weight loss and better blood sugar control than standard therapies. The approach aims to reduce side effects by limiting the drug's action to targeted areas.

Brandi Glanville jumped to Lisa Vanderpump's defense on the latest episode of her podcast. She called out Scheana Shay for writing 'horrible things' about Vanderpump in her memoir. Glanville highlighted Vanderpump's past kindness toward Shay.

A large study tracking nearly 100,000 people in Sweden found that GLP-1 receptor agonists like semaglutide, sold as Ozempic and Wegovy, are associated with significantly fewer psychiatric hospital visits and reduced sick days due to mental health issues. Researchers observed drops of up to 47% in various mental health risks during drug use periods. The findings appear in The Lancet Psychiatry.
