RHOA star Kandi Burruss, 48, reveals controversial weight loss supplement she used to lose 31lbs

   

Real Housewives of Atlanta star Kandi Burruss is crediting a controversial weight loss supplement for helping her shed 31 pounds.

The reality star, 48, claimed her recent physical transformation was partially a result of her partnering up with Hydroxycut, a brand of weight loss supplements that comes in various forms, such as pills, capsules, shakes, and gummies.

'Operation #UnBigMyBack was a success!' she captioned footage of herself showing off her impressive weight loss while rocking a yellow sports bra and matching biker shorts. 

In the video, uploaded to her Instagram on Wednesday, the mom-of-four raved that she 'lost 31lbs with Hydroxycut.'

'Nothing was working for me, so I decided to try Hydroxycut,' she explained. 'It gives you energy. I feel and look the best that I have in years. Get Hydroxycut today.'

Hydroxycut has marked their products for weight loss, body building, and 'fat burning' on their website.

The brand states on their website that their products work 'in conjunction with exercise and a reduced calorie diet.

Back in June, Burruss opened up about gaining weight after departing the hit Bravo series and trying Ozempic during an exclusive interview with DailyMail.com.

'I guess when I quit Housewives at the top of the year I was like, "I'm gonna live my best life!" So I've been eating good,' she said. 'I'm a dessert person, so I can have dessert with every meal.'  

She also spoke about trying the popular weight loss drug, Ozempic, for a while, but says it did little to curb her cravings.

She eventually got a major wake-up call after a troll on social media pointed out that she'd gained weight.

The Xscape star, who is about to go on tour with her group and SWV, knew it was time to get her curves under control.

'I really need to get it together,' she confessed. 'You keep trying to stay motivated to stick to a diet, but sometimes you just need some extra help and motivation.'

Kandi has now teamed up with dietary supplement brand Hydroxycut, which has just launched a new range of products that claim to work as an alternative to semaglutides like Ozempic, and include weight loss-boosting ingredients like Glucose Control and Berberine.

'Hydroxycut is powered by a key weight loss driver (C. Canephora robusta),' the brand's website states. 'This ingredient has been studied in two separate scientific studies with significant results.'

The star said that the products have helped control her cravings and increased her energy. 

This year, she has been focused on her Queens of R&B tour with Xscape and SWV.

Outside of music, Kandi is focused on her acting career and just landed a role in season two of Hulu's Reasonable Doubt.

'I'm playing Eboni and she's a recovering addict which allowed me to go really deep with this character,' she explained.

'I want people to know me for other things, not just reality TV, and this was the perfect opportunity to show people that your girl can act!'

In February, Kandi announced her exit from The Real Housewives of Atlanta following 14 years on the show.

The upcoming fifteenth season will feature a revamped cast of both old and new faces.

In addition to Shamea Morton and Porsha Williams, fans will be tuning in to watch newcomers Brittany Eady, Kelli Ferrell, and Angela Oakley.
