Real Housewives of Orange County’s Emily Simpson has lost 40 pounds.

Simpson and co-star Shannon Beador discussed her experience on social media.

“Around age 42 I gained 40 pounds and it wasn’t until now (age 47) that I was able to finally get it off and feel like my old self again,” she wrote.

She posted a picture of herself in the gym.

“Just to be clear though… I rocked a bathing suit on TV for 5 years and never felt ugly or not confident in myself or my body. Not once,” she added. “I am the strongest (mentally and physically) right now … at age 47 …and I will continue to improve myself daily. My only competition is Me ❤️.”

Simpson stated that she lost the weight by going to the gym every day first thing in the morning.

She also thanked her loved ones for their support.

“Thank you for following this journey with me and for those of you who are always kind and comment positive things… I appreciate you! For the haters out there… I love you too! You motivate me daily to lift harder and eat better ❤️,” she ended the post.

“Thank you @paulinastein for texting at 6 am every morning and confirming that my a– would be at the gym by 7.”

Simpson joined the reality show during its 13th season.

She also shared three posts regarding her upper eyelid surgery back in August.

Simpson has gotten a facelift and liposuction and has taken Ozempic to lose weight.

“I now feel comfortable in my skin,” she enthused.
