Lizzo Says Her Weight Loss Was Slow And Intentional
Throughout her career, Lizzo has been open about her health journey, and she’s made it clear she’s not chasing quick fixes or extreme transformations. “I’ve been methodical, losing weight very slowly,” she told The New York Times in March 2024, emphasizing that her approach has always been about sustainability rather than drastic change.
That steady mindset paid off. In January 2025, Lizzo celebrated a major milestone, revealing on Instagram that she had reached her “weight release goal.” “I did it,” she shared at the time. “Today, when I stepped on my scale, I reached my weight release goal. I haven’t seen this number since 2014! Let this be a reminder you can do anything you put your mind to. Time for new goals!”
