Amanda Bynes put on a very cheeky display as she stepped out for a coffee run in Los Angeles on Thursday. The 40-year-old actress, who has been showing off her 40lb Ozempic weight loss in recent months, was spotted grabbing an iced coffee at Starbucks during a lowkey errand run.
The She's The Man star donned a pair of black bikini bottoms as well as a printed shirt and cream-colored jacket layered on top. Bynes additionally slipped into a pair of fishnet tights as well as comfy tan ankle boots for the daytime excursion. She carried a black purse over her right arm while also sporting a pair of fashionable black shades. Her platinum blonde locks were combed back away from her face and flowed down in natural waves past her shoulders.
Bynes picked up an iced coffee before strolling down a sidewalk in the bustling city to head to her next destination. The former Nickelodeon star has recently been flaunting her weight loss and previously got candid with her fans about using a weight loss drug.
Ozempic Journey
Back in June of last year, Bynes shared her plans to start Ozempic in an Instagram video at the time. 'Oh, I'm going on Ozempic. So excited. I'm 173 now so I hope to get down to like 130, which would be awesome so I look better in paparazzi pictures.' The Hairspray actress continued by adding, 'I will post about my Ozempic journey of course.'
And then months later in November, Bynes offered an update after she began using the GLP-1 medication. 'I've lost 20 pounds so far. I'm so excited about that, to be honest. Also, I want to lose about 50 more pounds,' she expressed in a clip uploaded to her Instagram stories. 'I'm 163 now. I actually shot up on the Ozempic pill, shot up to 180 from 173. So I was able to lose twenty pounds from 180 and now I'm down to 163 on the Ozempic injection.'
She further added that the medication is 'working' for her and is 'trying to lose more weight just to feel skinny and cute.' Bynes continued, 'So I will keep taking Ozempic and I just wanted to post about it because I know that I hadn't made a post about my progress on Ozempic since I posted about it months ago.'
Shortly before Christmas, the What A Girl Wants actress revealed that she had 'lost 28lbs on ozempic' and additionally shared that she was 'down to 152lbs.'

The nutritionist added that it appears the medication Bynes is on has been 'a good fit' for her.

The star continued to her followers, 'Please listen. Thank you so much, I really appreciate it. I'm so glad you're all loving it. The response has been super positive so far.' And only days earlier, the former child star notably signed to the distribution platform Create Music Group.
