NEED TO KNOW

  • Lizzo discussed her weight loss transformation in an interview with Women’s Health UK

  • Speaking candidly about her appearance, the singer, 37, said her body has become a “smaller version”

  • “Body positivity has nothing to do with staying the same,” she told the outlet

Lizzo is opening up about the physical and psychological changes she has experienced on her weight loss journey.

The singer, 37, is featured on the cover of Women’s Health U.K.‘s September issue, in which she discusses her feelings towards the changes in her body throughout her fitness journey and her views on body positivity.

“I like how I look now,” Lizzo told the outlet. “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.”

“Body positivity has nothing to do with staying the same,” she continued. “Body positivity is the radical act of daring to exist loudly and proudly in a society that told you you shouldn’t exist.”

Lizzo has been documenting her “weight release journey” on social media since 2023. In her latest interview, she reflected on previously struggling with binge eating as a result of feeling stressed or anxious.

“There were times when I would eat so much that my stomach hurt,” Lizzo told Women’s Health U.K. “When I was done, I would be so uncomfortable, I couldn’t breathe and wouldn’t let anyone know. I would hide it. I had so much food noise and connected so much emotion to food. If I was sad, anxious, stressed or working a lot, I would snack and just eat constantly.”

The “Good as Hell” singer said that she has now found “a beautiful balance” in her relationship with food amid her fitness journey.

“It’s a beautiful balance where it’s like, if you allow yourself to have something, you can enjoy it without overindulging and hurting yourself,” she said. “I’m so proud of myself for overcoming that.”

In January, Lizzo announced on Instagram that she had achieved her “weight release goal” as she shared a picture of herself after lowering her body mass index (BMI) by 10.5.

Since going on her weight loss journey, Lizzo said she has battled criticism for the changes to her body.

She told Women’s Health U.K., “Me saying I love myself in 2016 was offensive to people … How dare you love yourself! You are fat and Black and you’re a woman, so you shouldn’t love yourself … I had to fight for that [to love myself].  And now I’m fighting again.”

Lizzo added that she is determined not to let the criticism get to her. “It’s okay to release weight. It’s okay to gain weight after you’ve released weight, because what you’re not going to do is shame me if my body changes again and I get bigger,” she said.

The full interview can be read in the September issue of Women’s Health U.K., out now.
