MISERY OVER BATES' RISKY BODY CHANGES!

Obsessed ex-pudgester won't budge over Ozempic

- 

FORMER plumpette Kathy Bates has dangerously shrunk to a bag of bones - leaving fans alarmed, say sources, who confide that TV's new Matlock has dumped a ton of weight and become obsessed with being skinny!

Sources snitch that friends are begging the 76-year-old star of such hit flicks as Misery and Adam Sandler's Waterboy to stop dieting to extremes and start snacking again instead.

"People are worried she's gone past the point of being healthy," spills an insider. "She doesn't look good ― she's dumped a ton of weight and she's gaunt. She's shaky at times and seems kind of out of it, quite frankly."
