Accusations of profiting off insecurities under false pretenses leave Janelle’s reputation in question, with uncertainty over her brand’s survival.
TikTok wellness coach Janelle Rohner is under fire after admitting she’s been using a GLP-1 drug — like Ozempic or Mounjaro — to aid her weight loss, despite selling a $200 macro-counting course based on her “natural” results. While GLP-1s have become a trendy weight loss tool, fans feel betrayed that Janelle didn’t disclose her use sooner, accusing her of profiting off insecurities under false pretenses. Since her confession, refund demands and cancellation calls have flooded her pages, with many claiming she only cares about money.
In response to the backlash, Janelle posted a typical influencer-style apology, stating she’s not asking for sympathy and insisting she could have kept it a secret. However, critics aren’t buying it, arguing the damage is already done — and some are even predicting a lawsuit. Whether Janelle’s brand can survive this remains to be seen.
