“RHOC”'s Emily Simpson Says She's 10 Lbs. Away from Her 'Goal Weight': 'Not Sure If I Can Get There'

“I feel like I’m at the weight my body likes and it just doesn’t want to budge,” the Real Housewives of Orange County star said

Emily Simpson is still hoping to lose more weight despite hitting a bump in the road.

On Sunday, the Real Housewives of Orange County star, 47, posted a Q&A for her followers on her Instagram Story, giving an update on her health and fitness journey.

One fan asked if the reality star, who has been documenting her recent weight loss on social media, has reached her “goal weight” yet.

“No I haven’t reached it,” Simpson replied. “I’m 10 pounds away. Not sure if I can get there. I currently weigh the same as what I weighed for many many years before gaining 40 pounds, so I feel like I’m at the weight my body likes and it just doesn’t want to budge🤣.”

Despite the plateau, Simpson has maintained her consistency in the gym. She told another follower that discipline has been the key.

“What keeps you motivated daily,” one fan asked, to which Simpson responded: “I think it’s now just discipline: I wake up early. I go to bed early. I go to the gym daily. I focus on making good and healthy choices regarding food. Then repeat.”

Last month, Simpson said that she’s the “strongest” she’s ever been after losing 40 lbs.

“Around age 42 I gained 40 pounds and it wasn’t until now (age 47) that I was able to finally get it off and feel like my old self again…,” Simpson said, alongside a video compilation of her fitness. “Just to be clear though… I rocked a bathing suit on TV for 5 years and never felt ugly or not confident in myself or my body. Not once.”

Simpson’s video begins with a photo of her holding a bottle of water at the beginning of her fitness journey. The clip then switches to her doing various exercises at the gym, including pull-ups, before ending with a photo of her showing off her figure in a white bikini.

“I am the strongest (mentally and physically) right now … at age 47 … and I will continue to improve myself daily. My only competition is Me ❤️💪🏻,” she wrote.

The RHOC star, who has had several plastic surgeries and previously used Ozempic, went on to thank her fans for following her journey and encouraging her with kind words. She also had a message for the “haters," saying: “For the haters out there... I love you too! You motivate me daily to lift harder and eat better ❤️💪🏻🙌.”
