Food Network star Sandra Lee isn’t interested in any weight-loss drugs after a rough experience.
"I tried them, recently. And one of them put me in bed for an entire week," Lee told Fox News Digital at The Daily Front Row Eighth Annual Fashion Los Angeles Awards Sunday.
She continued, "I lost ten pounds, but I was sick as sick could be. And so, I don’t know, for every person, it’s what their body can handle and tolerate. It wasn’t for me."

Lee said her food focus is what it’s always been, something she describes as "mommy meals."
