Chrissy Metz has opened up about her health journey, saying she focuses on long-term wellness rather than quick fixes or weight-loss trends. Inspired by her father’s death after gastric bypass surgery, the This Is Us star prioritizes sustainable habits over extremes.
She has “complicated feelings” about GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic, noting they can be helpful for medical needs like diabetes, but risky for those with eating disorders. Metz says any decision to use them would be her own, based on what supports a healthy, long life.
Now 44, she maintains her health through meal-prepping, intuitive eating, and strength training instead of heavy cardio. She also splits her time between Los Angeles and Nashville to improve her quality of life and balance her career.
Metz has been open about past struggles with disordered eating and emphasizes therapy, self-awareness, and asking whether food choices are “helpful or harmful.” For her, the goal is not the scale, but strength, mobility, and overall well-being—believing that thinness does not equal happiness.!!
