Bonnie Chapman revealed she lost 60 pounds with the help of a weight-loss drug.Bonnie Chapman/InstagramBonnie Chapman, the 25-year-old daughter of Duane “Dog the Bounty Hunter” Chapman, recently opened up about her incredible weight loss journey. In an interview with E! News published on Sunday, November 24, 2024, Bonnie revealed she shed 60 pounds in just 10 months with the help of a weight-loss drug called Tirezepatide.
Bonnie shared that her struggle with weight began in her teenage years. Despite trying various diets, including the Mediterranean and Paleo, she felt frustrated by the lack of lasting results. “I’ve been trying to lose weight since I was probably 18 years old,” she said. “It was very frustrating to constantly be trying and putting in the work.”
Her breakthrough came last December when she was prescribed Tirezepatide. The injectable medication worked quickly, with Bonnie losing 10 pounds within the first two weeks. Initially, she couldn’t see the changes in her reflection, even though the numbers on the scale were dropping. “I would step on the scale and see the numbers go down, but I didn’t see it in myself until others started pointing out subtle differences,” she said.
Before finding success with Tirezepatide, Bonnie had been prescribed another weight-loss drug, Ozempic. However, it caused severe nausea, prompting her to switch to Tirezepatide. With this new approach, Bonnie finally began to see the results she had longed for.
Starting at 196 pounds, Bonnie set a goal to reach 130 pounds. Today, she has surpassed that goal and weighs 126 pounds. Reflecting on the moment she hit her target weight, she admitted, “I’m not going to lie, I cried a couple of times because this was what I wanted my entire life.”
The weight-loss drug has not only helped Bonnie lose weight but also curbed her appetite and allowed her to adopt better eating habits. She explained how smaller portions became enough to satisfy her hunger. “Even if I go a week or two without taking it, I can still eat smaller portions,” she added.
Bonnie’s journey wasn’t without challenges. Her struggles with emotional eating were amplified by personal tragedies, including the passing of her mother, Beth Chapman, in 2019 and the loss of her rental property in a fire earlier this year. These hardships made it difficult for her to maintain a healthy lifestyle.
In addition to using Tirezepatide, Bonnie credited Morph Fitness for playing a significant role in her transformation. She also learned to enjoy healthier snacks, like homemade kale chips, and reduced her intake of sushi and sweets to just a few times a month.
Bonnie’s weight loss journey also intersected with her diagnosis of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) as a teenager. PCOS is a hormonal condition that can lead to weight gain, acne, and other health challenges. She opened up about her diagnosis earlier this month on Instagram, sharing how it had made her efforts to manage her weight even more difficult.
Today, Bonnie is proud of her transformation and feels like she has rediscovered herself. “The last time I felt good was probably in high school,” she said. “Reaching this weight has made me ecstatic. I feel like I’m finally me again.”
Her inspiring story is a testament to perseverance, support, and finding the right tools for success.
