2021: Lizzo celebrated her body at any size
In 2021, Lizzo shared a TikTok that showed her body at different stages in her life as she addressed how much she’s changed physically. “It’s ok to change. I love every stage my body fluctuates to. The feats your body pulls off everyday to function is iconic honestly,” the star wrote in the caption. Much like Kelly Clarkson, who’s spoken a lot about her own weight loss through the years, Lizzo’s take on her changing body marked a refreshing take for a celebrity.
The “Truth Hurts” hitmaker also shared her take on body confidence in another montage TikTok showing her doing various workouts. “The best transformations are the ones only you can see. Celebrate yourself,” she captioned it, suggesting she wasn’t working out to lose weight but to be healthier on the inside. In the clip, Lizzo completed a wide range of exercises, including jumping rope, kettlebell squats, and side planks with weights.
2023: She began her ‘intentional weight release journey’
Lizzo announced she would be undertaking an intentional body transformation in May 2023, but Lizzo’s wellness journey wasn’t about thinness (and her admission shouldn’t have been so revolutionary). “I’ve always loved moving my body. I’ve always loved working out … I think a lot of people see a fat person that way and immediately just assume everything they’re doing is to be thin. I’m not trying to be thin. I don’t ever want to be thin,” she explained on TikTok. But the entertainer noted because her job is so physical, including playing instruments and dancing on stage in skin-tight clothing, she’d decided to take that side of her career more seriously.
During an appearance on “On Purpose with Jay Shetty” in 2025, Lizzo addressed why she announced her plan to the world. “I have been on an intentional weight release journey … I was, like, very clear that this time it’s intentional,” she explained. “…I wanted to be transparent in that way, because I do feel like I have a relationship with the public where it’s like, I am their friend and it is relatable. You know what I mean? It is relatable to struggle with your body. So I put it out there.” She added that she’d undergone a slow transformation and never intended to lose a lot of weight quickly or in an unhealthy way.
The “Pink” singer also gave fans an insight into her workouts. That December, she shared a TikTok of herself doing sit ups as part of a Pilates routine. “Help i started Pilates to heal my back now i cant stop,” she wrote in the caption.
2024: She shared her workout and diet routines
In summer 2024, Lizzo let fans in on her workout routine, sharing her lifestyle via social media. The beauty gave fans a look at the hard work she was putting in at the gym on Instagram as she used what appeared to be a lat pulldown machine. “Remember you can do ANYTHING you put ur mind to! Stay focused, you got this,” she wrote in the caption. In an Instagram Story, she confirmed she was so dedicated to her active lifestyle she was even getting her workouts in on vacation. The hitmaker jumped rope in Bali, captioning a video of herself (via People), “I keep beating my ass… I’m whooping my ass.”
That September, Lizzo addressed her weight loss on Instagram after fans started to notice her changing body. She shared a series of photos and videos, including one that showed her sighing as she clapped back at a troll who suggested she’d used weight loss injections. “When you finally get Ozempic allegations after 5 months of weight training and calorie deficit,” she shared. She also confirmed on TikTok she no longer embraced a vegan diet. “After tests and research, I found that animal proteins helped me have more energy, lose weight and helped with my mental fog,” she explained.
2025: Lizzo met her goal
In January 2025, Lizzo shared the news that she’d reached her goal weight. The A-Lister posted a mirror selfie on Instagram wearing a maroon crop top and leggings with a bandana. “I did it. Today when I stepped on my scale, I reached my weight release goal,” she captioned the upload, which has over 581,700 likes at the time of writing. “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!” she added. Her friends and fans alike were full of praise for the impressive accomplishment. “Congratulations Queen,” Nick Cannon commented on the upload, while author Luci Lampe wrote, “Queen!! Absolutely slaying at ANY shape and size.”
The star proudly showed her body on Instagram again the following April, slaying in a pink and purple lingerie set. She posed for another mirror selfie as she showed all her hard work on her body, writing in the caption, “Smoothing lace is back.” This star looks beyond gorgeous at any size and her inspiring body confidence has been evident during every step of her journey, but there’s no denying she glowed with accomplishment after putting in so much hard work to reach her goal.
