“Jersey Shore” star Snooki, whose real name is Nicole Polizzi, has revealed the secret behind her dramatic weight loss.

The reality star lost around 17 pounds but implied it was from cutting down on alcohol and hitting the gym.

But Snooki has finally come clean and admits she lost weight using diet pills.

Polizza tweeted to her fans, “Glad to hear reports that say I look good =) but it’s not because of Hcg! Thanks @Zantrex!”

Snooki has reportedly been using Zantrex-3 Fat Burner to help with her weight loss. And of course the “Jersey Shore” star is now a spokesperson for the product.

The little meatball said the diet pill “gives her energy to work out”.

Zantrex is an amphetamine-free diet drug made up of herbs, yerba mate, green tea, and caffeine.
