Amy Schumer is sharing insight into her weight loss journey.
On Instagram, the comedian shared a statement about what she’s been going through lately when she posted a video of her house she said was taken by her young son, Gene, whom she shares with her husband, Chris Fischer.
“I don’t get Botox or filler,” Schumer wrote online. “I didn’t lose 30lbs I lost 50. Not to look hot which does feel fun and temporary. I did it to survive.”
Schumer then talked about her struggle with Cushing syndrome and said, “I had a disease that makes your face extremely puffy that can kill you but the internet caught it, and the disease has cleared.”
“Sorry for whatever feeling it’s giving you that I lost that weight. I’ve had plastic surgery over the years and I use monjuro. Sorry to anyone that lets down,” she added. “I’m pain free. I can okay (sic) tag with my son.”
According to Mayo Clinic, Cushing syndrome is a condition that occurs when the body produces too much cortisol over a long period of time, or from taking glucocorticoid medicines. The site says that this can cause high blood pressure, bone loss or a change in physical features like “a rounded face” or “purple stretch marks.”
At the end of her statement, Schumer offered advice for anyone who has questions about perimenopause.
“Happy to share if anyone has any questions about how I’m looking or feeling or where I am in my perimenopause process,” she said.
She seemed to address rumors about her marital status and her husband’s autism diagnosis as well.
Schumer added, “Whatever ends up happening with Chris has nothing to do with weight loss or autism fingers crossed we can make it through, he’s the best.”
Throughout the years, Schumer has detailed how she’s lost weight. In past remarks, the “I Feel Pretty” star said she’s gotten liposuction, has tried Ozempic and is now on Mounjaro, a Type 2 diabetes medication.
In March, she said she’s been having a “really good experience” with Mounjaro. The “Trainwreck” star later posted a picture of her abs on Instagram to show how far she’s come in her weight loss journey.
