Tim McGraw<\/a> and Faith Hill<\/a>‘s daughter, Gracie McGraw<\/strong>, is opening up about a deeply personal chapter of her health journey.<\/p>\n In a series of candid Instagram posts<\/a>, the 29-year-old reflected on taking Ozempic after being diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), saying the medication helped manage her symptoms but also reignited her struggle with an eating disorder.<\/p>\n “At that time, I thought it was the best decision I ever made because I finally lost weight and got skinny,” Gracie wrote.<\/p>\n She said the medication worked as intended, but the weight loss came with consequences she didn’t fully recognize until much later.<\/p>\n Read More:<\/em>\u00a0<\/b>Watch Tim McGraw’s Daughter Perform for Veterans Day<\/a><\/p>\n “Yes, it f–king worked and made my PCOS symptoms<\/a> easier to control, but it also brought back my ED (eating disorder) and negative views on my body,” she said.<\/p>\n Looking back, Gracie said she became “way too skinny” but didn’t realize it at the time because of what she described as the return of “skinny culture.”<\/p>\n “I realized, ‘Holy crap, I have been feeding into my eating disorder this whole time under the guise of this miracle shot,'” she wrote.<\/p>\n Now that she’s no longer taking the medication, Gracie said she sees the experience through a very different lens.<\/p>\n “I think it was probably one of the worst things I’ve ever done for myself, looking back,” she shared.<\/p>\n Read More:\u00a0<\/b><\/em>Tim McGraw Sings With His Daughter in Birthday Video [Watch]<\/a><\/p>\n She also acknowledged that she’s doing much better today, though she still has “slip-ups from time to time” when it comes to her body image.<\/p>\n Gracie also reflected on the pressure of growing up as the daughter of two country superstars.<\/p>\n I’ve been called fat and ugly my entire life, whether that had been from magazines or the internet.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n She said she was frequently compared to her sisters, Maggie and Audrey, and even to Tim McGraw and Faith Hill.<\/p>\n Gracie ended her message by encouraging greater compassion in conversations about weight and health.<\/p>\n Read More:\u00a0<\/b><\/em>Tim McGraw’s Daughter Is in an Alt-Rock Band<\/a><\/p>\n She stresses that it’s possible to care about someone’s well-being while also showing empathy for what they’re going through.<\/p>\n If you or someone you know is affected by any of these issues, call 988 or contact the Crisis Text Line by texting \u201cNEDA\u201d to 741741.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n Carly Pearce, Mark Chesnutt and Colt Ford have all made headlines recently for serious medical problems, but they’re not the only country stars living with chronic illness.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Gallery Credit: Sterling Whitaker<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\nLooking Back on Her Ozempic Journey<\/h3>\n
