Lizzo Reveals Ozempic Use for Weight Loss Transformation

Lizzo has finally admitted to briefly using Ozempic to aid in her extreme weight loss transformation

BOMBSHELL EXCLUSIVE!

Lizzo Spills the Beans: I Used Ozempic for a Hot Second, but Then I Got Real About My Diet!

You thought you knew Lizzo - the Queen of Sass and Self-Love - but little did we know she had a secret: she briefly relied on Ozempic to help her lose weight! Yes, folks, the Grammy-winning singer has finally come clean about her weight loss journey, and it's more juicy than we ever could have imagined!

In an exclusive interview with Trisha Paytas' Just Trish podcast, Lizzo dished about how she started taking Ozempic at the beginning of her weight loss journey in 2023. But, after a short while, she realized that relying on medication wasn't the key to long-term success.

"It's not being vegan," Lizzo explained, "when I was vegan, I was consuming a lot of fake meats...I was eating a lot of bread, rice, and had to eat a lot to stay full. But really, I was consuming 3,000-5,000 calories a day!" Whoa, talk about a food coma!

The star also spilled the beans on how some "healthy" snacks can be packed with "fake sugar" that leaves you still feeling hungry. "So, for me, when I started eating whole foods and eating like beef, chicken, fish...I was actually full and not expanding my stomach by putting a lot of fake things in there that wasn't actually filling me up!"

And let's be real, Lizzo didn't mince words about those who criticize others for using Ozempic or other weight loss aids. "It's not easy. It's a drug to help somebody with something they're struggling with...I think people are fat-phobic when you're telling someone they're cheating."

Lizzo's weight loss journey has been nothing short of remarkable - she dropped 16% of her body fat and reduced her body mass by 10.5% in just a few months! And, honestly, we can't help but feel a sense of pride and accomplishment for this queen.

In the midst of all this success, Lizzo took time to shut down allegations that she was taking Ozempic (back in January). She shared an Instagram reel, captioned "When you finally get ozempic allegations after 5 months of weight training and calorie deficit," alongside a screenshot of a troll's comment accusing her of using the medication or snorting coke.

We won't lie - Lizzo has been serving up some serious looks lately. From rocking a plant-based diet to flaunting her new bod on social media, she's giving us major #fitspo vibes!

And, if you thought that was all, Lizzo recently revealed that she prefers the term "weight release" over "weight loss." We're not surprised - this queen is all about spreading positivity and self-love!

So, what's next for Lizzo? Well, we know she'll be continuing to kill the game with her music, fashion, and fitness ventures. And, who knows, maybe a cookbook or two in the future?
