Kyle Sandilands has reneged on his promise to take Ozempic, just one day after announcing he would take the weight loss drug live on-air during Thursday's show. 

Discussing his pledge on The Kyle And Jackie O Show, the shock jock, 52, said his plans had changed - for a very surprising reason. 

'I've changed my mind because I don't want to,' he declared, adding: 'I'm not here to pander to the thin.' 

Ozempic which is typically used to treat type II diabetes, has seen an increase in prescriptions for obesity in recent years and is currently used by many celebrities to keep a trim figure.

During Wednesday's show, Kyle was forced to deny he'd been secretly taking the drug after fans noticed how he'd lost a significant amount of weight in recent weeks. 

Kyle shut down claims he's taking the appetite suppressant, but admitted he is open to trying the weight loss drug.

'I asked the doctor will that Ozempic thing work for me because contrary to popular belief, I don't sit at home chewing food all day. I don't actually eat much,' he said.

'My problem is white bread and 15 lattes a day.'
