See everything Brooks Nader has said about her use of weight loss drugs, including how many pounds she lost
The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model has been open about how much weight she’s lost through the years — and the subsequent side effects — while taking Ozempic and GLP-1 medications. In August 2025, Nader exclusively told Us Weekly that she was “sick of being at cocktail parties or fashion events where someone knew six months prior had lost a random 80 pounds.
” “I’m like, ‘You look amazing,’ and they’re like, ‘Oh, I just started working out.’ I didn’t love everyone lying about it,” she said. “I had a weight loss, and why lie? So I was like, ‘I’m on Ozempic!’”Her Addiction After Brooks Nader got candid about the side effects of GLP-1 on her reality show Love Thy Nader, fans reached out to the model to share their stories. “The thing that I was so shocked about with the show was that I had so many people reach out to me, saying, ‘I’m also addicted to GLP-1. I’m ashamed to talk about it because there’s such a stigma around it. It’s a crutch for me,’” she told Bustle in November 2025. “I’m still on it. It’s a crutch for me, too. It’s not healthy. I should get off it; I’ll be honest about that.”“If I didn’t get a job, I would say to , ‘Can we get feedback from the client?’” Brooks Nader recalled to Bustle in November 2025. “The direct feedback was I needed to lose 30 pounds. I didn’t shed one tear over it. I don’t feel bad for myself. I just say, ‘The facts are they want me to lose weight. How can I achieve that?’”“I’m not saying it’s OK. I’m not saying it’s right,” she added. “I think everybody is different — but I lost 30 pounds, and I booked all the jobs.”Brooks Nader told Us Weekly exclusively that she also experimented with Ozempic before competing on season 33 of Dancing With the Stars in 2024. “I took, like, a little bit when it first came out, and everyone was doing it,” she told Us in December 2024. “It made me really nauseous. I liked it — I am not going to lie — and when I went on Dancing With the Stars, I could not do both.”Her Worried Sisters Brooks Nader’s sisters, Grace Ann Nader, Mary Holland Nader and Sarah Jane Nader, held an intervention for the Sports Illustrated model while filming season 1 of Love Thy Nader in 2025. After Brooks booked a cover shoot with Maxim Magazine, she decided to up her dose of GLP-1 to look “extra snatched.” The higher dosage resulted in Brooks feeling nauseous, struggling to stay awake in a bathtub and nearly fainting during a workout class. Her sisters then found the amount of GLP-1 needles and bottles that Brooks had stocked up and set up an intervention. “I know my sisters are coming from a place of love, I just find that you don’t know until you’re in that position how to handle it,” Brooks said of the intervention in a confessional. “I think that I have maybe an unhealthy relationship with weight and food because of the industry that I’m in, but I don’t think that I have an eating disorder,” she added.
