Melissa Gorga claimed all of her co-stars on the Real Housewives of New Jersey are using Ozempic for weight loss except for her.
The reality TV personality, 45, recently revealed she was the 'only one on the cast that does not take Ozempic.'
During an appearance on Wednesday's episode of Sherri, she said that she instead chooses to focus on her fitness regime to shed pounds.
'I work out really, really hard,' she told talk show host Sherri Shepherd. 'To each their own for everything, but no, I don't take it.'
However, the Bravo star — who confirmed she is still feuding with her sister-in-law and co-star Teresa Giudice — said she wasn't judging her castmates for usingzempic.

This comes shortly after Shepherd brought up how Dolores Catania, 53, and Margaret Josephs, 57, made an appearance on her talk show in early May and telling her that 'most of the cast' have used the diabetes drug.
On the topic of how most people choose to keep their Ozempic usage a secret, Catania said: 'I don't know why, because there's no shame in it.'
She previously revealed she lost 20 pounds using the Ozempic alternative, Mounjaro.
'If a doctor gives it to you, if you're doing things right, you're becoming healthier by losing weight,' she shared.
'It's a bunch of great things that come along with this,' she said on the May 2 episode of Sherri.
After admitting she uses Ozempic herself, she said she had finally reached her 'high school weight.'
'I'm gonna be honest because it's right,' she said after making her confession.
Josephs also chimed in about using Ozempic herself and her positive experience with the medication.

'After menopause, it's so hard to lose weight,' she said. 'And then you're shamed for it if you're heavy.'
She continued: 'It shuts off that food noise, my blood work is great.'
In comparison, she said before she started taking the diabetes medication she 'couldn't do anything.'
'It doesn't matter if I was eating right, exercising, so I don't know why there's any shame in it if it's helpful to people.'
