伊利诺伊州州长JB·普利茨克在接受《CBS晨间新闻》采访时透露，过去两年来他一直使用GLP-1类药物减肥。
在周一播出的采访中，普利茨克表示他目前已经减重80磅，感觉“整个人都不一样了，状态也好了很多”。
“其实我这辈子大部分时间都超重，大概从7岁或8岁开始就如此，”普利茨克说道。
那大约也是他父亲唐纳德在39岁时因心脏病发作去世的前后。
“他其实是个相当爱运动的人，尽管体重超标，当时他正在网球场上，突然心脏病发作，我母亲就在场，他死在了她的怀里，”普利茨克回忆道。
考虑到家族病史，普利茨克表示他一直都密切关注自己的血液检查指标，但他承认，作为美国第六大州的州长，这份高压工作让他的体重进一步增加，也让他不得不忍受不必要的关注。
“普利茨克啊，我真不知道，他光忙着吃饭了，”2024年竞选活动期间，特朗普总统曾如此说道，“他好像无时无刻都在吃东西。”

如今，人们几乎每天清晨都能看到普利茨克在芝加哥密歇根湖沿岸进行4英里的步行锻炼。
促使他做出改变的契机是自己血液检查的坏消息。两年前，他被诊断出患有糖尿病。
“我的医生说，‘哦，不，你永远都摆脱不了这个病了，你这辈子都得靠药物维持，我建议你使用GLP-1类药物，’”普利茨克说道。
他的妻子、第一夫人MK·普利茨克表示，她曾鼓励丈夫服用这种药物。
“很显然，我了解他的家族病史，”她说，“你知道，那是个多么令人悲伤的故事，当然，我希望他能健健康康地陪我们走很久。”
普利茨克每周都会自行注射GLP-1类药物。他说在开始使用GLP-1的第一周，体重就出现了下降。
“突然间，到了第三天，我就心想，其实吧，我没必要吃那么多，”普利茨克说道，“但那种感觉真的很奇怪。我并不是说一切在一周内就发生了改变——事情不会那么简单。”
他表示第一周就减掉了2磅，而普利茨克清楚很多人可能会怎么想。
当被问及他是否为了在总统竞选前改善形象才减肥时，普利茨克回应道：“我这辈子一直都在努力减肥。”
“如今因为有了GLP-1类药物，我终于能够做到这一点，这对我来说意义重大，真的，”普利茨克说道，“我还没有对未来可能的行动做出任何决定。我可以明确告诉你，我还想再担任一段时间的伊利诺伊州州长，目前我正在竞选连任。”
当被直接问及是否不会参加2028年总统竞选时，普利茨克说：“说实话，我目前只关注如何为伊利诺伊州的民众谋福祉。”
这其中也包括所有州政府雇员。普利茨克表示，伊利诺伊州已经将GLP-1类药物纳入了为5.5万名州雇员提供的州保险计划中。
“为什么这么做？因为我们能省钱，”普利茨克说道。
他表示，随着这一政策的改变，糖尿病患者的数量会有所减少。
“人们的体重会降低，而超重会引发诸多其他疾病，”普利茨克说道。
这位州长表示，曾有一位女性告诉他，这项救助措施救了她的命。
“作为州长，我有机会借助自己的平台告诉人们，这种药物对他们来说是有效的，”普利茨克说道，“我认为他们应该在医生的指导下使用，但至少对我而言，这确实改变了我的人生。”

Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker revealed to “CBS Mornings” that for the last two years he has been using a GLP-1 medication to lose weight.
In an interview broadcast Monday, Pritzker said he’s lost 80 pounds so far and he feels “a whole lot different and a whole lot better.”
“I’ve been overweight most of my life, really, since I was probably 7 or 8 years old,” Pritzker said.
That was around the time his father Donald died of a heart attack at 39.
“He was actually quite an active person, even though he was overweight, and so he was on a tennis court and had a heart attack, and my mother was there, and he died in her arms,” Pritzker said.
Given the family history, Pritzker said he’s always kept an eye on his own blood work, but he acknowledges that the high-pressure job of being the governor of the country’s sixth-largest state led him to put on even more weight, which forced him to put up with unwanted attention.
“Pritzker, I don’t know, he’s too busy eating,” President Trump said in 2024 on the campaign trail. “He wants to eat all the time.”

Nowadays, you can find Pritzker exercising along Lake Michigan in Chicago on a 4-mile walk that he makes nearly every morning.
Bad news about his blood work is what forced him to make a change. Two years ago, he was diagnosed with diabetes.
“My doctor said, ‘Oh, no, you’ll never come off of it. You’re going to have to do this the rest of your life, and I recommend that you take a GLP-1,’” Pritzker said.
His wife, first lady MK Pritzker, said she encouraged her husband to take the drug.
“Obviously, I knew the history of his family,” she said. “You know, it’s such a sad story, and of course, I want him to be around for a really long time.”
Every week, Pritzker injects himself with the GLP-1 medication. He said in his first week on the GLP-1, he lost weight.
“All of a sudden, on the third day, I was like, you know, actually, I don’t need to eat that thing,” Pritzker said. “But it was the strangest feeling. Now, I’m not suggesting everything changed in a week. it didn’t happen that way.”
He said he lost 2 pounds in the first week, and Pritzker knows what a lot of people may be thinking.
Asked if he did this to improve his image before a presidential run, Pritzker said, “I’ve been driven my whole life to lose weight.
“The fact that I am now able to do it because this GLP-1 became available is truly, like, I mean, it’s something that has meant a lot to me,” Pritzker said. “I have not made any decisions about what I might do in the future. I can tell you I want to be the governor of the state of Illinois for a while longer, and I’m running for reelection.”
Asked specifically if he’s not running for president in 2028, Pritzker said, “I honestly am focused on what’s best for the people of Illinois.”
That’s including all state employees. Pritzker said Illinois is covering GLP-1s on the state insurance plan for 55,000 state employees.
“Why? We’re going to save money,” Pritzker said.
He said that because of the change, fewer people will have diabetes.
“People will be less overweight, which causes so many other diseases,” Pritzker said.
The governor said one woman told him the initiative saved her life.
“I have an opportunity just with the platform that I have as governor to tell people that this is something that can work for them,” Pritzker said. “I think they should do it with the doctor’s advice, but I can tell you at least for me it has been really life-changing.”
