“I always go for a long walk,” she said of her daily routine. “I’m always very worried about how many steps I can do because it helps me to be mentally clear. I don’t care if it’s two degrees or 100 degrees outside. I need to get out of the house and be one with nature.”

Josephs added that she is also “very concerned about health and wellness.”

“I take care of myself all the time,” she says. “I think that was drilled into me as a little kid. I have given up eating a lot of dairy products. I train, go for long walks and ride the peloton.”

Joseph’s weight loss came after she accused Teresa Giudice of shaming her on The Real Housewives of New Jersey. According to The Daily Mail, during a season 12 episode of the reality show Bravo, Josephs blew up at Giudice after the RHONJ OG got upset with her for not wearing a workout gear brand. During a charity softball game, Giudice had commented that Joseph’s butt wouldn’t “shake” if she wore her leggings.

“You’re tearing me apart,” Josephs later told her co-star. “Then you’re mad at me, I won’t wear your training clothes. You say my ass shakes. Then last night you called me fat.”

Giudice denied shaming Joseph’s fat. But during a March 2022 episode the “RHONJ: After Show” Joseph’s doubled down on Giudice’s “embarrassing” body shaming.

“It shows their level of maturity trying to shame me and say my ass would look better,” Josephs said.

Giudice responded with, “I was just saying what I saw. I looked at her and that’s what came out.”

“My leggings, they hold you down, they hold you down. Her ass would have looked better. My leggings make your legs and you look good,” she explained.
