Lizzo, the empowering vocalist behind "Truth Hurts," gracefully navigates her fitness journey with a "fine both ways" attitude, sharing milestones amidst the spotlight. On a recent Friday, the 36-year-old artist addressed rumors swirling around her weight loss, attributing it to Ozempic. With a playful sigh and a candid Instagram video, she quipped, "Here come the Ozempic allegations, after five solid months of sweat-drenched weight training and meticulous calorie counting." Alongside, she shared a screenshot of a follower's snarky comment, querying if she'd resorted to Ozempic or cocaine, to which Lizzo responded with a poignant "whyyyy do u follow me?"
Earlier in the week, Lizzo showcased her transformation with clips accompanied by Nicki Minaj's empowering words, proclaiming, "FINE BOTH WAYS," a testament to her unwavering self-acceptance. In another post, she unveiled her workout routine, declaring, "NOT SKINNY, IM FHICK," embracing her full-figured beauty with pride.
The internet rallied around Lizzo, with one supportive fan echoing the sentiment, "I've noticed the changes, but held back because it's 2024 and body talk is outdated. You look AMAZING!" Lizzo, a long-standing advocate for body positivity, has been documenting her fitness endeavors throughout the year, inspiring her followers with gym sessions and uplifting messages.
In August, she shared gym clips, encouraging, "If you're reading this, remember, you're capable of achieving anything you set your mind to." In a recent workout video, she marveled at being in a place where she cherishes her body, sharing, "There were times when I was smaller, yet I hated myself. But before this fitness journey, I embarked on a self-love journey. Self-love isn't just accepting yourself as is; it's embracing the fact that you evolve."
In a March interview with The New York Times, Lizzo revealed her meticulous approach to weight loss, emphasizing slow and steady progress through diet and exercise. "I dedicate daily to nurturing my body," she said, adding, "There's never a moment of regret after a walk or Pilates session." Yet, she underscored, "My body is solely my domain."
Back in 2020, Lizzo boldly declared, "I'm beautiful, and I'm still fat. These aren't mutually exclusive." Urging her followers not to starve themselves, she shared her own journey, fueled by greens, water, fruit, protein, and sunshine. "Do life your way," she urged, emphasizing personal autonomy over body image.
When "South Park" parodied her in a special about Ozempic and weight loss medications, Lizzo initially expressed her fear but later embraced the parody as a testament to her self-love message. "I've truly shown the world how to love yourself," she reflected, turning the spotlight back on her empowering narrative.
