Erika Jayne acknowledged her obvious weight loss and credited it to her ‘menopause‘ on Tuesday’s episode of Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen.
The 52-year-old reality star appeared slimmed down while appearing on the Bravo talk show wearing a black tank top, matching pants and tall boots.
‘Looking like a whisper of herself,’ host Andy, 55, said while introducing the cast member of The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills.
Andy later told Erika that she looked great and asked about her weight loss.
‘Yeah, I lost weight,’ Erika said.

‘Here’s what. Let me just start off by saying, you know, I want to make sure that I don’t trigger anybody because we have this conversation in Beverly Hills and we have a cast member with an eating disorder,’ Erika said referencing Crystal Kung Minkoff, 40, who has openly shared her struggles with bulimia nervosa and body dysmorphia.
‘But, yes, I did come down in weight and I did it hormonally,’ Erika said.
‘Not Ozempic-ally?,’ Andy asked referencing the drug Ozempic that is being used for weight loss.
‘I was going through menopause,’ Erika said. ‘So, I took it all down.’
‘Who loses weight in menopause?,’ cracked fellow guest comedian Jackie Hoffman, 62.
‘Me, I went to the doctor and I said get it off. Me,’ Erika said.
The US National Institute on Aging in its explanation of menopause notes that it affects each woman uniquely.
‘The body begins to use energy differently, fat cells change, and women may gain weight more easily,’ the NIA said on its website.
