Lizzo Boldly Displays Her Weight Loss Transformation After Sharing Why She Ditched Ozempic

Lizzo is entering a bold new chapter, embracing self-love, creativity, and confidence.

Fresh off her mixtape, "My Face Hurts From Smiling," she's flaunting her glow-up, both physically and emotionally, following a transformative health journey and a deep reflection through music.

Lizzo's latest post flaunting her new figure comes after she admitted she once tried Ozempic, during her weight loss journey, but ended up ditching the drug.

Lizzo is serving full-on mermaid energy in her latest swimsuit snap, rocking a vibrant, coral-and-purple one-piece and long, flowing platinum-blonde hair that screams summer siren.

The singer took to Instagram to share a sun-drenched moment, confidently flaunting her curves as body oil glistens across her glowing skin.

At one point, she spins around to flash a cheeky view, making it clear she's soaking up every bit of the season, and turning heads while at it.

The post comes just as Lizzo drops her new mixtape "My Face Hurts From Smiling," capping off a year of celebrating her transformation.

After beginning a health and wellness journey in 2023, she reached her goal weight by January and reduced her body fat by 16%.

However, Lizzo's transformation extends far beyond physical changes. She's been candid about prioritizing self-care, including overhauling her skincare routine and using Invisalign to perfect her smile.

And while rumors have swirled about her weight loss methods, she's been quick to set the record straight, crediting consistency, not Ozempic, for her incredible results.

After being plagued by Ozempic allegations, Lizzo finally admitted to once trying weight loss drugs.

During a recent appearance on the "Just Trish" podcast hosted by Trisha Paytas, the singer made the revelation.

"It's not easy," Lizzo stated while reflecting on her attempts to manage her weight. She noted that she's "tried everything," and in the end, it really came down to counting calories.,

The "About Damn Time" hitmaker explained that although Ozempic can help reduce food intake, she ultimately chose to rely on mental discipline rather than a weekly injection.

"Ozempic works because you eat less food," she said. "That's it. It makes you feel full, so if you can just do that on your own and get mind over matter, it's the same sh-t."

So, Lizzo ultimately relied on calorie counting and lifestyle changes to achieve her weight goals.

In a candid new interview with Rolling Stone, Lizzo opened up about how music has remained a lifeline for her, especially during her most difficult moments.

Reflecting on her battle with depression, the Grammy-winning artist shared how the creative process kept her grounded, even when she felt like she was barely hanging on.

"My relationship with music was still very intense," she admitted, reflecting on her battle with depression. "I still am like, 'Music saved my life,' because there were really dark moments when I was working on 'Love in Real Life,' my album, where I was like, 'Okay, I don't think I can make it through the day, but I have to go to the studio."

Despite the comfort that songwriting brought, Lizzo admitted that not every track made it to the final cut.

"A lot of the songs that I wrote didn't make the album," she revealed. "It would be like, 'That felt good to say, but you can't put that out.'"

That hesitation, however, disappeared with "My Face Hurts From Smiling." For the first time, Lizzo felt free to be fully unfiltered.

"I'm going to just say it. I don't give a f-ck. All right," Lizzo said boldly. "I've been fat and I've been skinny/B-tches still ain't f-ckin' with me.' I don't think that could ever be on a Lizzo song. I would've been so scared to put that in something like 'About Damn Time' or 'Juice.'"

Lizzo traced the roots of that fear back to the massive success of "Truth Hurts," which led her to constantly second-guess how listeners might perceive her lyrics.

"I said, 'I will never ever, ever, ever, ever be a side chick' in the original. And then I was like, 'Mm, but what if I offend side chicks?'" Lizzo explained. "And so I was like, 'I will never ever, ever, ever, ever be your side chick.' I always overthink these things because I know who's consuming my music and I'm very [concerned about] how they're going to feel, how it's going to affect them."

But now, Lizzo's mindset has shifted: "To keep it very, very funky with you — everybody's offended by everything today, so it's impossible to not offend somebody. So it's like, just say what you want to say. Just say whatever you want to say."

At this stage in her life, Lizzo shared that she now feels as though she is "unf-ckwithable," a hard-earned shift after years of public scrutiny and "being canceled for various all sorts of things."

She explained: "I think when you come out on the other side of that and you get a little older, you're like, 'There's nothing you can say about me anymore. There's nothing anybody can say."

"I'm feeling amazing now. Like, sh-t. I wasn't feeling bad before, but I do feel like a brand-new b-tch, you know? I feel like I've evolved," Lizzo continued. "I learned a lot about myself, and I learned good things about myself, and I'm really happy about it."

A big part of Lizzo's growth has been her renewed relationship with creativity.

"I need to be creating all the time," she noted. "That's my new thing. I used to compartmentalize creating, and now I'm like, 'No, girl. You need a studio in the house. You need to be writing songs. You need to be getting your creative vision off and you need to trust your vision too.' And I'm really, really happy."
