Jesse Plemons Denies Ozempic Use, Credits Intermittent Fasting for Weight Loss

Jesse Plemons, known for his versatile roles in films like "Black Mass" and "The Power of the Dog," has recently undergone significant weight loss, which he attributes to intermittent fasting rather than the popular drug Ozempic. The actor, who previously gained weight to play Boston mobster Kevin Weeks in "Black Mass," adopted the time-restricted eating method due to age and the demands of his roles, including his part in the new drama "Civil War."

Plemons revealed that he felt better and more in rhythm after starting intermittent fasting, which involves limiting eating to certain hours of the day and fasting for the remaining time. Despite initial doubts, he was surprised by the effectiveness of the method and believes it helped his performance by making him physically thinner. He also noted that his weight loss was not primarily motivated by appearance but rather by the need to adapt to his evolving roles and age. His wife, actress Kirsten Dunst, praised their strong romantic and creative connection amidst these changes.
