Rachel Fuda Says Husband’s Weight Loss Made Sex Better

Rachel Fuda is opening up about how her husband John Fuda’s recent weight loss has benefited more than just his health.

During an episode of PageSix’s Virtual Reali-Tea podcast, the Real Housewives of New Jersey star, 32, boasted that her husband slimming down has made their sex life skyrocket.

“We were just talking about this. He’s got me going like the Energizer Bunny over here. Like, it’s just too much!” she said with a laugh.

John lost 50 lbs. over the past 14 months thanks to a liposuction procedure as well as peptide and hormone replacement therapy.

“He’s doing all these IV treatments and all these kinds of things,” Rachel said. “And I’m like, ‘Are they infusing Viagra into your veins?’ Like, what is going on here?”

“I think his slim-down has definitely improved our sex life,” the reality star said. “Not that it ever was not because he would, like, pin me to the cross!”

In March, John spoke to PEOPLE about his weight loss journey and massive transformation. The businessman and entrepreneur — who shares son Jaiden, 17, and daughters Gianella, 3, and Guiliana, 2, with Rachel — said he used to be a regular gym goer but fell out of the habit during COVID.

“We were building a house and between that, work, and the kids, I felt a a lot of stress as the provider,” he said. “And that stress, I was turning it into fat. We’d go out to eat and the kids would order junk found and I would just wind up eating it. Most fathers do, right? And before I knew it, I was a heavyset 230 pounds.”

Wanting to change course, John decided to get liposuction from board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Michael Ingargiola in December 2022, prior to the RHONJ season 13 reunion. Though he was happy with the results, he admits he didn’t feel “healthier.”

“It was thinner, yes — I went down to about 195 pounds — but it didn’t feel like anything else had changed,” he said at the time. “It was kind of a jump start, but just a Band-Aid. What I wanted to focus on was more of my holistic health.”

The 37-year-old then turned to Jamie Gabel PA-C, a certified physician assistant who specializes in helping patients build a wellness program of injectable peptides and hormones. 

For John, that meant a combination of peptides and testosterone. He also used semaglutide, known by brand names Ozempic and Wegovy, which is an FDA-approved prescription medication for people with type 2 diabetes and chronic obesity that works in the brain to impact satiety.

“I have more energy, I feel more mobile, more agile. And I’ve been able to get back into a routine, which is probably the hardest thing to do,” he said at the time, noting that his routine included a combination of diet and exercise.

With the lifestyle changes, John said he quickly saw results, dropping down to 180 lbs.

“Everybody’s body is different, but this has really worked for me,” he told PEOPLE. “And it’s not just the medicine, it’s what you do while you’re taking the medicine. I started eating clean carbs, like brown rice, and increased my salad, greens, and proteins. I’m working out more. I’m drinking less, because I found when you’re on the medicine, you don’t want to drink that much. So it changed a lot. But everything is firing on all cylinders.”
