On Saturday (Jan. 25), Lizzo took to Instagram to share some thrilling news regarding her weight-loss journey. The βSpecialβ singer announced that she has finally reached her ideal βgoal weight.β This follows her years of documenting her health transformation on social media. In the post, Lizzo appears slimmer than ever, sporting a stylish athleisure two-piece, likely from her shapewear line Yitty.
βI did it,β she writes. β Today when I stepped on my scale, I reached my weight release goal. I havenβt seen this number since 2014! Let this be a reminder that you can achieve anything you set your mind to. Time for new goals!β Her supporters are clearly overjoyed, as evidenced by the enthusiastic comments pouring in.
Throughout her career, Lizzo has encountered significant backlash regarding her weight and her advocacy for body inclusivity. Nevertheless, she has never allowed the negativity to bring her down. In 2021, after a troll targeted her with comments about being βobese,β she humorously addressed it on Instagram by offering a witty and sarcastic retort. βI wake up in my obese bed, [and] I have to get a king bed because Iβm so obese. I slip on my obese Louis Vuitton house slippers and stroll into my massive, obese bathroom where I gaze into my wall-to-wall, obese mirror, lathering myself with the most luxurious, obese oils and creams.β
Last October, the singer humorously addressed speculation that she used Ozempic to facilitate her weight loss by dressing up as the controversial drug. Numerous celebrities have faced accusations of using the medication purely for its weight loss effects, often without any formal medical need. Early in 2024, South Park tackled the increasing buzz around the drug among celebrities, even referencing Lizzo. Regardless, it seems Lizzo has the last word on the matter.
