Lizzo opened up about her dramatic weight loss in a recent interview, and the singer says that even though she’s dropped down a few dress sizes, she’s still happy being a “big” girl.
“I like how I look now. I still think I’m big. I’m still wearing plus-size clothing. I have the same rolls. I got the same belly, the same thighs — I think I’m just a smaller version,” she told Women’s Health UK.
Lizzo reportedly lost around 60 pounds, and while there was much speculation that her weight loss was due to Ozempic, she says it’s down to diet, exercise, and major changes to her lifestyle.
Her weight loss journey began back in 2023.
“Once I started working out for mental health, to have balanced mental health or endorphins, so that I don’t look at myself in the mirror and feel ashamed of myself, and feel disgusted with myself, exercise has helped me shift my mind, not my body,” she said on TikTok at the time. “My body is gonna change, everyone’s bodies change. That’s life.”
In June, she admitted to trying Ozempic but says that it was actually hopping off a vegan diet, which led her to actually see results.
