Pregnant Kristen Doute Plans to Try Weight Loss Injections After Baby's Birth

Kristen Doute reveals she plans to try weight loss injections after giving birth, opening up about her post-pregnancy goals and body image journey.

As Kristen Doute counts down the weeks to motherhood, she’s already making plans for her post-baby body — and she’s not shy about it. The reality star, 42, revealed she plans to turn to weight loss injections after giving birth to help shed the pregnancy weight.

“Bring It On”: Kristen’s Take on Postpartum Slim-Down

During a candid conversation on the April 22 episode of the Bitch Bible podcast, the Valley star didn’t hold back. Joking about her future body goals, she said, “If Ozempic doesn’t work, then eating disorder, bring it on.” While clearly said in jest, the remark sparked discussion online about the growing trend of celebrities using injectable weight loss medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro. When asked directly if she plans to use injections again, Kristen confirmed, “I absolutely [will].” She explained that she previously tried Ozempic but didn’t have a great experience. “It didn’t go well for me. That was Ozempic,” she said. “I’m going to try something different.” Doute added that she’s committed to using whatever weight loss aid helps her feel confident in her postpartum body. “I just don’t want to wear leggings for every single outfit,” she joked. “It works for pregnancy, but post-pregnancy, like, ew.”

Kristen and Luke: Baby First, Wedding Later

Kristen’s bold comments come as she prepares for her first child with fiancé Luke Broderick. The couple got engaged during a romantic getaway to Maui in September 2024 after two years of dating. Just two months later, Kristen announced her pregnancy — a joyful moment that came after taking fertility shots to boost her chances of conception. The couple has made it clear they’re in no rush to walk down the aisle. “We’re not going to plan a wedding until after babies,” Kristen said on her Balancing Act podcast in September. Luke echoed the sentiment, saying, “With our timeline, we should have a baby first and then start planning after that.”

It’s a Girl! And the Name’s Already Picked Out

In December 2024, Kristen and Luke hosted a low-key backyard gender reveal party where they found out they’re expecting a baby girl. “Luke was made to be a girl dad,” Kristen told Us Weekly exclusively. The pair already have a name picked out and are counting down the days until they meet their daughter.

Bravo Drama Ahead of Baby Shower

Though Kristen’s pregnancy has been filled with excitement, there’s still a bit of Bravo-style drama on the horizon. Speaking to Us Weekly earlier this month, Kristen hinted that not all of her Valley castmates will make the baby shower guest list. “There are definitely people not on my baby shower or my birthday invite list,” she said with a smirk. “So, they’re definitely not on the wedding list.” She left fans guessing about who made the cut but teased, “If you watch Season 2, you’ll be able to figure out promptly who that would be.”

Ready for Motherhood — and the Next Chapter

Despite the usual ups and downs of pregnancy and reality TV life, Kristen says she’s feeling good overall. “I didn’t really know what to expect. I don’t know if it’s my age or what it is, but [I’m] super grateful, super excited, and ready for her to be here,” she shared. As for her post-baby plans, Kristen Doute isn’t afraid to explore weight loss injections again — this time, with a better game plan. Whether it's a new medication or a revamped approach, she's determined to feel her best in the next phase of her life as a mom, fiancée, and Bravo star.
