Lizzo, the renowned music sensation who has captured the hearts of millions with her chart-topping melodies and electrifying stage performances, has recently delved into the depths of her weight loss journey and body image in a compelling interview with Women’s Health. The 37-year-old vocal powerhouse termed body positivity as a "radical act," emphasizing, "Body positivity is the daring and proud declaration of one's existence in a society that often whispers doubts about one's place."
Lizzo, who has been chronicling her remarkable transformation across social media platforms, made it abundantly clear that her journey was never about conforming to societal norms or standards. The "Pink" crooner shared, "I adore my current appearance. I still consider myself curvy. I still embrace plus-size fashion. My rolls, my belly, my thighs—they're all still there. I'm simply a smaller version of myself."
She also touched upon the significance of self-acceptance, highlighting that it takes immense strength to stand tall and be proud of one's body amidst the chaos of the world. Additionally, the chart-buster behind "About Damn Time" firmly shut down conversations surrounding Ozempic and surgery, asserting that her sense of pride would remain steadfast, regardless of the method employed.
"Had I achieved all this with Ozempic or surgery," she stated, "I would still be equally proud, because this journey is arduous. Anyone who has navigated life in a larger body within today's societal framework knows just how challenging it can be. Merely existing isn't a cakewalk."
Lizzo revealed that she had experimented with Ozempic but discontinued its use when it failed to yield results for her. During an appearance on the Just Trish podcast, she explained, "Ozempic works by suppressing appetite, making you eat less. If you eat the right foods, it can leave you feeling full. But if you can achieve the same results through sheer willpower and mind over matter, it amounts to the same thing."
Earlier this month, Lizzo posted a striking before-and-after photograph, crediting her remarkable progress to relentless hard work, daily exercise, nutritious food choices, and steering clear of junk.
