Danielle Cabral is delighted with the results of her tummy tuck.
On Friday, The Real Housewives of New Jersey the star posted a video on YouTube documenting her cosmetic procedure and her recovery journey. The 38-year-old was all smiles as she revealed her results after previously being “insecure” about the “wrinkled” excess skin she had on her stomach.
“After 2 c-sections, a healthy diet and CRAZY workouts, there was nothing more I could do to get rid of the excess skin,” Cabral wrote on Instagram about the big discovery. “There is no magic pill (I wish) I could take to make it go away. It wasn’t going anywhere unless I underwent a medical procedure known as a ‘tummy tuck’.”
She added: “🗣I would like to emphasize that I have invested countless amounts of work and that my body was in the best shape immediately before this procedure. Simply put, there was nothing that could be done.”
RHONJOzempic’s Danielle Cabral criticizes Ozempic users who don’t have a medical need for the drug: ‘You’re running on a treadmill’
While she was happy with the process, the reality star responded to many people in the comments section who trolled her about her recent criticism from Ozempic users.
During the live recording of PageSix Virtual Reali-Tea podcast last week, Cabral blasted people who used Ozempic for weight loss when they didn’t really need it, arguing that they were limiting supply to those who really needed it.
Ozempic is an FDA-approved prescription drug for people with type 2 diabetes. It’s one of the brand names for semaglutide — also known as Wegovy — which works in the brain to make you feel full, and has become increasingly popular for its unspecified use for weight loss.

“Today I was with someone, a very dear friend of mine, who really needs it [Ozempic] for medical reasons, and I can’t get him because of this stupid, bullish behavior,” Cabral said at the time. “But she can’t get it, she can’t get it…treadmill running.”
Underneath her recent tummy tuck video, one follower told her: “Maybe someone like you who has been shamed into using Ozempic as an easy way out should apply it to themselves. If it makes you feel good and makes you happy, that’s what matters. So if it applies to you, it should apply to everyone.”
“I have never disgraced an ozempic if used in the right way,” replied Cabral. “The problem for me is that there is no easy way out. That’s where my comment came from. Eating whatever you want, popping a pill and losing a ton of weight is just not normal. If you eat unhealthy, your body will also be unhealthy. That’s all.”

RHONJOzempic’s Danielle Cabral criticizes Ozempic users who don’t have a medical need for the drug: ‘You’re running on a treadmill’
The RHONJ star later responded to two other people who criticized her baby bump, using their comments against her and suggesting she run on a treadmill instead. Cabral defended her decision and pointed out that she ran “a lot” and “tried everything” to lose excess skin on her stomach before deciding to have the surgery.
“Ozempic is not okay, but plastic surgery is okay. i get it 🙄,” another critic commented.
“You missed my point. It was for the abuse of persons,” insisted Cabral. “Ozempic is great. I just can’t think of it as a miracle and the only solution. I also have to work a little.”
