Joy Behar says she lost 25 pounds using a GLP-1

Joy Behar revealed on Wednesday’s episode of The View that she has lost 25 pounds after taking a GLP-1 medication. The co-hosts — Whoopi Goldberg, Sara Haines, Sunny Hostin and guest Savannah Chrisley — were discussing drugs such as Ozempic and Mounjaro; Chrisley noted she is pre-diabetic and has lost 40 pounds, and Goldberg said she had once been nearly 300 pounds and is “looking good now.” Behar, 83, did not name the specific drug but told viewers, “I lost 25 pounds.

We all did it!” She added that the weight had been a heavy burden she hadn’t fully noticed until it affected her breathing. Goldberg previously spoke publicly about using Mounjaro in March 2024, saying the diabetes medication helped jump-start her system and metabolism after steroid treatment following back surgery.

Hostin, who has also discussed taking Mounjaro, said she gained 40 pounds during COVID and was alarmed when her cholesterol hit 200. Not everyone has had a positive experience with GLP-1s.
