Jon Gosselin has reaped a few benefits from shedding a few pounds. In a recent interview with The Sun published on Wednesday, July 24, the 47-year-old “Jon & Kate Plus 8” alum discussed how his life has changed for the better since he prioritized his health.
His long-term girlfriend Stephanie Lebo was also present for the talk, during which he credited blood testing for revealing that his testosterone levels were low and how non-invasive rounds of CellSound following his weight loss helped tighten his skin.
Gosselin’s Improved Sex Life
Gosselin stated the combo helped his body’s “overall appearance,” and that it improved his sex life. “I mean, that’s the reward we get for looking so good and being happy,” he said later. The pair stated that low testosterone not only affects libido but may also be a symptom of heart problems.
“Women should get checked too,” Lebo, 36, said, asking others to find out if they have “low estrogen” or “high estrogen.” Earlier in the conversation, Gosselin said he was “somewhere between 47 and 50 pounds” lighter, adding that his weight “fluctuates week to week.”

Gosselin Speaks on Habit
In February, the father of eight spoke with Entertainment Tonight about how transitioning from a television star to a full-time DJ affected his eating habits and, ultimately, his health.
“I just got complacent with my health,” he told the magazine, adding at the time that he had gained 35 pounds. “I’m in a pleasant relationship. Stephanie, my girlfriend, is very special to me. We simply eat anything we want and do whatever.” According to the TLC alum, working from 10 p.m. to 2 a.m. four to five nights a week did not always provide him with the best options for a well-prepared lunch.
More on Routines
“I think it’s quite difficult in our neighborhood. I mean, we live in a rural section of Pennsylvania. “We eat at gas stations,” Gosselin stated. “We have Wawa.” However, there are healthy options available. It’s about three o’clock in the morning. What are you planning to eat? You are completely weary. You have another hour of driving. You’re just saying, there’s no hotel. You have no place to stop.”
“I don’t eat for about 12, 14 hours. So, I’ll eat dinner at three o’clock in the morning and drive to a gig,” he said. By April, Gosselin had published another health update, saying that he had lost more than 30 pounds in two months after using Ozempic.

Jon Gosselin Feels Elated
Gosselin admitted to Page Six that he regretted “not starting it 10 years ago.” “I feel wonderful! Like, why didn’t I do it sooner? “Maybe it wasn’t the right time,” he commented during the ceremonial opening of the Beverly Hills Rejuvenation Center West Hollywood.
He went on to say that the medicine, which is FDA-approved for persons with type 2 diabetes, helped him adjust his diet. “It’s really nice because it helped me stop drinking and it helped me get my appetite under control with less eating,” Gosselin told CNN. “I was able to really refocus my diet that way, I just focused on consuming what I need to consume in a healthy manner.”
Hannah Gosselin
Jon Gosselin and his daughter Hannah received a basic semaglutide from Dan Holtz’s Beverly Hills Rejuvenation Center, while Jon, 47, received multiple CellSound treatments and began addressing his low testosterone. They also worked out every day and ate a nutritious diet.
Jon stated back in April that he lost 30 pounds in two months after using semaglutide, also known as Ozempic and Wegovy. This was part of Beverly Hills Rejuvenation Center’s curriculum. At the time, the father of eight stated that the medicine helped him “stop drinking” and “control his appetite.”

Game Changing
Jon, who has seven siblings, including Hannah, Alexis, Aaden, Collin, Leah, and Joel, all 20, as well as twin sisters, Mady and Cara, 23, with his ex-wife Kate Gosselin, agreed with his daughter on the need for confidence.
“I believe in confidence. I work out at the beach, and I sometimes don’t wear a shirt since it’s 100 degrees outside,” he explained. “Before, I would just sweat through it; today, I take it off. I’ve got abs. “They simply appeared.”
