In 2026, Ukrainian celebrities are increasingly open about sharing their weight loss journeys with the public and showcasing 'before and after' photos. Ivo Bobul, Nastia Tkachenko, Olya Tsybulska, Mila Nitich, Volodymyr Zhoglo, Anatoliy Anatolich, and other artists have shared what their path to a new shape was like—ranging from conscious discipline to bariatric surgery and pharmacological drugs. The XAB.info editorial team has gathered the key details of each of these transformations.

### Ivo Bobul: 'It Was Hard for the Stage and Life'

People's Artist of Ukraine Ivo Bobul refrained from commenting on the noticeable changes in his appearance for a long time, although fans had long noticed that the singer had become significantly slimmer. Later, the musician confirmed that he had lost over 15 kilograms. According to him, the decision was conscious: excess weight began to cause discomfort both in daily life and during stage performances. 'It is a personal desire, because it was hard for the stage and life,' Bobul explained. Before starting the weight loss process, the singer consulted with doctors and family, emphasizing that all changes took place under supervision. However, he did not disclose his specific method and diet.

### Nastia Tkachenko: 37 Kilograms After Bariatric Surgery

Ukrainian comedienne Nastia Tkachenko spoke frankly about the most difficult path among the listed stars. In March 2026, the artist underwent bariatric surgery for stomach reduction. In an interview with the Okay Eva project, she confessed that her weight previously exceeded 130 kilograms. Before the intervention, Tkachenko underwent mandatory preparation, and after the surgery, a long rehabilitation. By September 2026, her weight was 93.5 kilograms, meaning she had lost 37 kilograms. Recovery, according to the comedienne, was not easy: due to sharp changes in the body, she experienced weakness, and a few months later she faced hair loss. After the surgery, Tkachenko significantly revised her diet, focusing on protein foods, and added physical activity.

### Olya Tsybulska and Mila Nitich: From Touring to 'Ozempic'

Singer Olya Tsybulska reported that her weight dropped from 71 to 59 kilograms. The catalyst for change was a tour in the USA: due to time zone differences, the artist's usual sleep and eating routine was disrupted. She then began replacing dinners with protein shakes, and upon returning home, she continued to follow the new routine and added regular physical exercise. Tsybulska stated that she is satisfied with the result but intends to continue working on her physical form. Singer Mila Nitich, in an interview with Slava+, spoke about her experience using weight loss drugs: she lost 12 kilograms with the help of Ozempic and Mounjaro. The reason for using the drugs was not only aesthetic motives, but also identified insulin resistance and prediabetes. According to Nitich, the drugs affected appetite differently, but after completing the treatment, digestive problems arose and the weight began to return.

### Volodymyr Zhoglo: Minus 65 Kilograms

One of the most noticeable transformations among Ukrainian comedians was demonstrated by Volodymyr Zhoglo. Previously, the artist weighed 164 kilograms; according to him, excess weight negatively affected his health, and numerous attempts to lose weight through diets did not yield lasting results. In late 2024, the comedian underwent stomach reduction surgery and subsequently shed 65 kilograms. Rehabilitation after the procedure took about two months. Now Zhoglo eats in significantly smaller portions, tries to limit fatty and flour-based foods, but does not set absolute prohibitions on his favorite food for himself.

### Anatoliy Anatolich and Others: Sports Instead of a Scalpel

TV presenter Anatoliy Anatolich has lost more than 20 kilograms over the past year. In July 2026, he published a 'before and after' photo collage on Instagram, humorously drawing attention not so much to his weight as to his changed hairstyle. Earlier online rumors suggested the presenter might have used weight loss drugs, but his wife Yula explained that the changes are related to regular sports, discipline, and a revision of dietary habits. Anatolich is fond of running, participates in marathons, and continues to maintain an active lifestyle. In addition, the Styler project previously reported how 'The Bachelor' show participant Yelizaveta Kolonoshenko lost almost 30 kilograms.

The stories of Ukrainian stars demonstrate that there is no single 'right' path to weight loss: for some, the decisive step was surgery, for others—a restructuring of diet and sports, and for others—pharmacological support in the presence of medical indications. In all cases, artists emphasized the importance of specialist supervision and a conscious approach to their own health.
