Scott Disick quit using weight-loss drugs after son Mason’s absolute ‘game changer’ move
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Scott Disick quit taking weight loss drugs after his teenage son Mason called him out and made him take "accountability" for causing universal concern over his severe dieting.

Scott Disick stops using weight-loss drugs after son Mason 'calls him out'
Many fans questioned whether Scott Disick had turned to Ozempic after he appeared noticeably slimmer earlier this year. His gaunt appearance, in fact, raised concerns about his health.
However, during an episode of 'The Kardashians', eagle-eyed viewers noticed boxes of the weight-loss drug Mounjaro loaded up in his refrigerator.
After several alleged attempts by family members to help Scott reduce his weigh-loss drug usage, insiders told Daily Mail that the Talentless founder was eventually compelled to make changes after Mason moved in with him.
"Scott had to kick the weight-loss drugs and Mason was the main reason why. Having Mason move in with him full time has been a complete game changer," the source said.
Mason apparently strongly voiced his opinions over Scott's extreme dieting.
The source added, "It has caused him to face a level of accountability that he has never had before, and it has been an incredibly positive experience. They are like best friends. Prior to this, Scott was struggling, but Mason calls him out."
Living with his teenage son also made Scott consider the example he was setting for his three children—Mason, Penelope, 12, and Reign, 9—with ex-girlfriend Kourtney Kardashian, 45.
"Scott is trying to teach Mason how to be healthy and lead a healthy lifestyle and must lead by example. Mason is at the age where he does not tolerate everything, and he is incredibly smart," the source said.
