Sister Wives star Christine Brown is living proof that real change takes commitment — and she’s not afraid to show it.
The TLC personality, 53, has come a long way in her health and wellness journey, posting a side-by-side photo on Thursday, September 25, showcasing her body transformation after shedding 40 pounds.
In the left photo, Brown smiled in a pale pink hoodie and denim skirt, while the right image showed her beaming confidently in a fitted plum top, jeans and a colorful scarf that echoed her vibrant new energy.
Brown addressed rumors about turning to “weight loss shots” and using tirzepatide (the active ingredient in Mounjaro) or semaglutide (the active ingredient in Ozempic) to achieve her results in the caption, revealing that she opted for a different route.

Both drugs have gained popularity for treating type 2 diabetes and obesity.
“Weight loss shots are helping so many women make progress and I am all for it! 🙌 But I’m also hearing from a lot of you that it’s coming with a few setbacks,” Brown wrote, pointing out some of the side effects she’s heard. “😣 Sluggish digestion 😩 Low energy 😕 Stalled results.”
Christine confirmed she has not taken the “shots” or weekly injections. “I lost 40 pounds with Plexus but I am loving helping people supporting their body while they are on it,” she wrote. “Gut health. Gentle cleansing. Natural energy. Faster weight loss, better digestion. It’s the combo so many women are adding with their shots to feel better, move better and see better results.”
Last year, the reality star opened up about her husband David Woolley’s weight-loss journey, revealing he found success with a few lifestyle changes.
“A few months ago for health reasons, David quit drinking soda, quit eating sugar, I put him on a few supplements and he loses 20 pounds, just like that,” she shared in March 2024. “20 pounds! Do you know how hard I work to lose 20 pounds?”
“The situation where men can lose weight quicker and easier is absolute rubbish,” she playfully vented.

Christine and Woolley have been going strong after tying the knot in October 2023 in the wake of her split from ex-husband Kody Brown, which she announced in November 2021. (The former couple share six children: Aspyn, 30, Mykelti, 29, Paedon, 27, Gwendlyn, 24, Ysabel, 22, and Truely, 15.)
Leading up to the milestone season 20 premiere of Sister Wives, Christine opened up to People about returning to her family’s long-running series in an interview published Friday, September 26.
“I just wasn’t sure if we still had a story to tell. But then, as I realized, we still have things that are happening in our lives that are interesting and that are good,” she explained. “And how do you navigate not only a breakup, but a divorce, a plural divorce with so many people? And how do you navigate relationships with sister wives?”
Christine was the first to call it quits with Kody, 56, followed by Janelle Brown in late 2022 and Meri Brown in January 2023. Robyn Brown now remains Kody’s only wife.
