Tracy Morgan proudly shows off slimmed-down physique as he candidly reveals he’s been taking OZEMPIC to shed a few pounds: ‘Now I only eat half a bag of Doritos’

Tracy Morgan candidly opened up about his weight loss journey  admitting he’d been using celeb-favorite Ozempic to help him lose a few pounds. 

‘That’s how this weight got lost,’ the 54-year-old 30 Rock star admitted on Today With Hoda & Jenna on Monday morning.

He did note that the drug, typically used to treat Type-2 diabetes, was just a supplement to his consistent exercise regimen. 

The standup comedian added, ‘I went and got a prescription, and I got Ozempic.’

With his trademark snarky humor, he joked, ‘I ain’t letting it go!’

Staying on track with keeping the topic of his Ozempic use comedic, the New York-born standup star joked how, ‘It cuts my appetite in half. Now I only eat half a bag of Doritos.”

The What Men Want star is just one of many celebrities to hop on the Ozempic trend for weight loss. 

However, he’s one of the rare Hollywood A-listers who have actually openly admitted to taking the medication.   

Back in 2014,  the Fist Fight star was involved in a collision that involved a Wal-Mart truck driver that had reportedly been sleep-deprived behind the wheel. 

As a result of the crash, the Death At A Funeral star broke several ribs, crushed his femur, and broke every bone in his face. 

Although the star has come a long way since being wheelchair-bound for several months after the incident, he was still seen using a cane yesterday after leaving the Today Show. 

However, the snarky comedian found a way to use the traumatic incident to his humorous advantage. 

In the trailer for his latest comedy special, ‘Taking It Too Far,’ Tracy jokes that his Tinder profile includes a photo of a Wal-Mart truck dropping money off at his front lawn.

During his candid confession on the Today Show, Kevin also noted that he takes an Ozempic injection every Thursday. 

He was a guest on the show to promote his latest comedy special, which debuts on Max on Thursday, August 17th. 

The Tracy Morgan Show star opened up about why he chose the title, ‘Taking It Too Far.’ for his latest standup special. 

The actor said that after being injured to the point of near-death in the truck accident, he wanted to just have fun with his comedy and ‘take it too far.’ 

When asked if he was concerned about being cancelled over his latest special, Tracy replied, ‘No. I’m not scared.’
