Recently, Lizzo revealed she had shed 16 per cent of her body fat over nearly two years, a feat that surprised many but was driven by her focus on health, not appearance.

While she has had many naysayers and critics over her journey, she remained transparent about her methods of 'weight release', and many supporters have cheered her on via social media.

Lizzo began her journey in 2023, with her aim being to improve her mental health through physical activity. She described her process as 'methodical', emphasising that her body was changing gradually, often unnoticed by others. During a March 2024 interview, she explained that her approach was about losing weight 'very slowly,' highlighting her focus on consistency rather than quick results.

Throughout her journey, Lizzo has been clear that she did not use Ozempic or other weight-loss medications. When rumours surfaced in September 2024 suggesting she might have taken Ozempic, she responded with humour and seemed to take the allegations as a compliment. She posted a TikTok clip, smiling and captioning it, 'When you finally get Ozempic allegations after 5 months of weight training and calorie deficit,' making it clear her progress was achieved through effort, not drugs.
