Lizzo is showing off her progress while silencing haters. In a triumphant post on Instagram on Thursday (July 3), the hitmaker shared side-by-side photos from before and after her weight loss, revealing the “truth” behind how she pulled off her transformation.

In both snaps, Lizzo poses in front of a mirror at a lymphatic massage center. Taken months apart, the Grammy winner looks visibly slimmer in the second photo.


“In light of all these magazines and blogs wanting me to be on ozempic soooo bad — here’s the truth!” she wrote in her caption. “I work my a– off, training 3x a week, daily sauna & cardio, adding animal protein back into my diet, hiring a chef who helps me meal prep and keeps track of what I put into my body in a calorie deficit, cutting out sugary Starbucks & full fat sodas & potato chips.”

Lizzo went on to say that she quit drinking for a long time, but is now back to indulging in alcohol because she “earned it.” “I play pickleball and hike and walk on the beach and move my body and dance and drink water,” she added. “I detox! Once a month! I also get holistic body work done, wood therapy, and lymphatic massage.”

The musician concluded, “I’m so happy and proud of what I’ve done, and no one can take that away from me.”

Lizzo has been open in the past few months about her fitness journey. In a recent Women’s Health cover story, she opened up about being inspired to shed some pounds after suffering severe back pain caused by her weight.

The artist — whose new album Love in Real Life drops later this year — also explained why she prefers to view her approach as a “weight-release journey,” rather than weight “loss.” “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 told the publication.
