Jeremy Clarkson says he has lost three stone thanks to fat jab
Jeremy Clarkson has lost three stone in six months due to the fat jab Mounjaro.
Jeremy Clarkson has lost three stone thanks to the fat jab Mounjaro.
The former Top Gear presenter, 65, confirmed he had shed the weight in just six months thanks to the jab, though thinks he has “ plateaued” now.
Jeremy told The Sun newspaper’s Sun Club: “I’ve had to have completely new outfits, because even my feet have shrunk.
“The shoes I was wearing last year are falling off me as I’m walking around. I think I might be the first person in the world to lose weight on my feet.
“I’ve plateaued now. I’m still on it, but not losing any more weight — but nor am I putting any on, because it keeps my appetite level down.
“It really is an astonishing drug.”
The Grand Tour host added he has avoided a lot of common side effects, though his girlfriend Lisa Hogan has pointed out he is a bit more grumpy since he started taking the jab.
He said: “Constipation? No, I don’t have that. Diminished libido? I’m 65 — it’s hard to know what’s causing that.
“I’m just a little bit duller and not quite as sharp as you should be. I’m just not quite as quick-witted.
“I find myself doing Hot Seat [Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?], thinking, ‘Oh f***, I should have said that, but too late now’. But who’s to say I wouldn’t have thought that when I wasn’t on it?
“I’ll ask Lisa when I get back home - ‘You were never funny and you were never horny, Jeremy.’
“Does she like the thinner me? Yes. I’m still not David Gandy. I’m nearer to Gandy now than I was a year ago, in the same way that tectonic activity means that South America is moving closer to Australia — not by much.
“But I can go much further, I can take the dogs out for longer now, so it keeps her happy. I’m much healthier.”
Jeremy - who had two stents fitted in blocked arteries that nearly resulted in him having complete heart failure - admitted the fifth season of his Prime Video programme Clarkson’s Farm will be anything but a “barrel of laughs”.
He said: “It’s been shocking these last 12 months, on every front.
“Anyone who thinks season five of Clarkson’s Farm is a barrel of laughs is in for serious disappointment.”
