Amy Schumer is showing off her weight-loss transformation and thanking the popular medication that helped her achieve it.
In a photo posted to her Instagram stories, Schumer posed in a wetsuit on a boat at sea, wearing sunglasses, with her hair slicked back and a diving mask in hand.
“Thanks monjouro!” she wrote over the photo, misspelling Mounjaro, the popular weight-loss drug she has been on for over a year.

“Weighing in at 150 for a year now,” the 45-year-old Emmy-winning comedian wrote on the Instagram story, first reported by Parade. She added that she was “feeling great.”
In a since-deleted Instagram video from March 2025, Schumer revealed that she was taking Mounjaro and “having a really good experience.” She has dropped 50 pounds while taking the dual GLP-1 and GIP receptor agonist.

“I had a disease that makes your face extremely puffy that can kill you, but the internet caught it, and the disease has cleared,” she wrote.
Schumer was diagnosed with Cushing’s syndrome in 2024, a rare hormonal disorder that is typically curable but can be fatal if left untreated. She figured it was caused by the steroid injections she took to treat her scars from her breast reduction and cesarean section.
She added, “Sorry for whatever feeling it’s giving you that I lost that weight.”

Before Mounjaro, Schumer had tried another similar weight loss drug, Ozempic, but did not enjoy the experience as much.
In a January 2025 interview on The Howard Stern Show, Schumer said she was “bedridden” and vomiting after trying the medication.
