Amy Schumer is expressing gratitude to her fans and many of her celebrity friends after unveiling a newly trim figure.
The “Trainwreck” actor and comedian enjoyed a night out in Las Vegas with longtime pals Jillian Bell and Alex Saks over the weekend. In a photo posted on Sunday to her Instagram, she sported a black Miu Miu minidress that showcased her toned legs.
The post quickly drew comments from some of Schumer’s famous pals.
“I’m so pissed about your legs, I can barely talk to you,” fellow comedian Kathy Griffin wrote.
Writer-director Lee Daniels, whose credits include “Precious” and “Empire,” felt similarly.
“Skinnnnnnnny mommmmma,” he wrote.
By Monday, Schumer herself chimed in, thanking her followers for their words of support.
“Loving the love,” she wrote. “My legs thank you!”

Though Schumer didn’t address specifics of her weight loss in her Sunday post, she confirmed earlier this year that she’d begun taking Mounjaro, a GLP-1 medication similar to Ozempic.
The Emmy winner has been outspoken about the challenges she’s faced with body image in the past. In 2022, she addressed getting liposuction after welcoming her son, Gene, three years earlier via C-section.
About a year later, she confirmed she’d taken Wegovy for weight loss, but ended up quitting after the “unlivable” side effects became too much for her to handle.
Appearing on “The Tonight Show” last year to promote her Hulu series “Life & Beth,” Schumer drew online scorn and accusations of plastic surgery for what she later described as a “puffier than normal face.”
She attributed her appearance to endometriosis and revealed she’d also been diagnosed with Cushing’s syndrome, a condition caused by high levels of the hormone cortisol. Symptoms include various types of weight gain, high blood pressure and fatigue.
