Savannah Chrisley is hoping to get to her dream body with the help of weight-loss drugs.
During the Nov. 4 episode of her podcast, Unlockedthe reality television star, 28, was joined by her mother Julie Chrisley, and discussed her struggles with weight loss. She admitted that her weight has “always fluctuated.”
“Like right now, I am almost 160 lbs. Probably more than that,” Savannah said.
Julie stressed that her daughter doesn’t look like she weighs that much, while Savannah said she prefers to be around 135 lbs.
She admitted that she previously took weight-loss medications — referring to them as her “shots” — but fell off because she likes to eat and no longer had an appetite.
“That’s the hard part. So when I’m on the shot and I can’t eat, I’m like, ‘Ugh, I really love food,’ ” she explained.

But Savannah said she’s ready to try the trendy medication again, having bloodwork done recently so she can monitor the changes in her health.
“I want to start back (on) my shot,” she said. “I love tirzepatide. It doesn’t give me all the side effects that some of these other ones give people. So then I can compare my bloodwork before taking it and after taking it and see where my biological age is, how my A1C is, all those things.”
Julie then chimed in and said she’s going to join her daughter so they can do it together.
“People can say what they want. I just believe as long as you feel good in your body, that’s all that matters,” Savannah said. “And I want to be skinny.”
The Chrisley Knows Best star then joked that she wants to lose so much weight that people start to wonder if she’s okay.
“I mean, not that skinny because I don’t wanna lose my ass,” she quipped. “But I want to be pretty thin because now when I put on some of my jeans, I don’t like it when I put on a pair of jeans that don’t fit.”
“So I’ve got to lose some pounds,” Savannah said.
