‘Vanderpump Rules’ Star Scheana Shay’s Weight Loss: What To Know – Women’s Health

With season 11 of Bravo's

The situation was understandably stressfuland had an adverse affect on Scheana's health. In August 2023, the 38-year-old revealed on her podcast, Scheananigans, that she lost an unhealthy amount of weight as all the "Scandoval" drama went down.

This isnt the first time Scheana has opened up about her weight in recent years. In the podcast episode, she shared that since becoming a mom to her 2-year-old daughter Summer, she avoided the scale, not wanting to weigh herself. I didnt want to get fixated on the number, she explained on her podcast to nutritionist Lauren Hubert.

She's also been open about an eating disorder she had at 20. During the Vanderpump Rules season 5 reunion, Scheana defended herself after former co-star Stassi Schroeder said Scheana was anorexic. I was doing any quick fix to get the weight off, she explained to her castmates in 2017, per PEOPLE.

Scheanas transparency regarding her relationship with her diet and weight has been consistent throughout her time as a reality TV star. Ahead, everything Scheanas revealed about her weight loss.

In 2019, the Vanderpump Rules star told Life & Style magazine that she's been working with trainer-nutritionist Seth Browning on a carb-cycling plan, which consists of rotating days of eating carbs with days of totally skipping them.

"When we first started I was doing three days of no carbs and one day of healthy carbsand that helped kick my body into shape," she said. One of her go-to dinners on a restricted carbs day? "Salmon with lots of grilled vegetables."

The same year, Scheana told US Weekly that she started this specific diet because of one too many football game day snacksand said, "My stomach's getting a little flatter.

When she was partaking in the carb cycling diet she also told US Weekly that she was training hard four to five days a week, a combination of full-body workouts and ones that focused solely on legs, butt, or core.

Scheana and her trainer also shared more of her total body workouts in an e-book called Scheana's Slimdown.

Scheana became a mom in 2021, and while she struggled with postpartum OCD, she wasn't focused on dieting.

I just kept working out and I didnt really drink much during the first yearI was still breastfeeding, Scheana explained on Scheananigans.

During her pregnancy, Scheana did focus on fueling up on healthy foods, adding in more protein and fewer carbs, she said in a YouTube video before giving birth.

I do a protein smoothie almost every day or a Greek yogurt in the morning. I love me some avocado toast with hummus, she explained. For lunch, we do a lot of grilled chicken salads. I eat a lot of salmon for dinner."

Following Scandoval, Scheana shared that she was having an insane few months, resulting in stress and anxiety. Theres been a lot going on that has affected my appetite and working out habits recently and Ive lost more weight, she said.

On top of this, on January 19 at the red carpet premiere of Vanderpump Rules season 11, Scheana shared with PEOPLE that she was diagnosed with OCD after struggling with intrusive thoughts, anxiety, and OCD, which began after giving birth to her daughter.

I feel like, especially as a mom, postpartum OCD is something that's not talked about, she said. It's misdiagnosed. A lot of people don't know what's wrong with them. And so once I figured this out, I was like, Oh my God. Now it makes sense.

Since the diagnosis, Scheana had a brain scan and is now taking a brain and power supplement pack, which have been really helping my intrusive thoughts and just overall how Im feeling. She told the publication that shes currently,in a good place.

In the podcast episode, Scheana said that after stepping on the scale and seeing an alarmingly low number, she decided it was time to up the food and the weights. Scheana added that she didn't want to weigh less than 100 pounds.

I dont want to be in the 1-0s because I dont think this is a healthy weight for me, she said, adding, It shows what stress and anxiety does to your body.

Ive had people ask me currently if Im on that and absolutely not. Wouldnt do it. Not for me, Scheana said in the podcast episode. I have friends whoI dont want to name nameswho have made some jokes about it like, Well, after my next baby Ill just get on Ozempic. And I am like, I dont think that is what its there for?

In March 2023, Scheana posted a picture to her Instagram, showing that she was partnering with Hydroxycut, a weight loss supplement brand. She posed in a matching workout set with the brand's product in front of her.

Its about to be #RevengeBodySZN in WeHo. @Hydroxycut #Partner, she wrote in the caption.

In February 2023, when PEOPLE asked her about the rumors she was on Ozempic, Scheana responded, I havent heard of it," adding, I would stick with Hydroxycut.

Our secret is just walking around your house," her husband, Brock Davies said. "You know, get outside and walk. You want to lose some weight, watch what you eat and go outside."
