Lizzo opens about her weight loss journey after refuting rumours of using Ozempic: 'It's not easy'
Pop sensation Lizzo recently addressed her weight loss rumours and opened about her drastic weight loss journey. Months after refuting rumors that she used Ozempic and other GLP-1 weight loss pills, pop sensation Lizzo acknowledged that she did use them. The singer of About Damn Time confessed that she "tried everything" to reduce her weight, including weight loss injections, in a recent episode of Trisha Paytas' Just Trish podcast, which was released on Thursday, June 19. 'It's not easy,' said Lizzo, whose real name is Melissa Viviane Jefferson. She said, 'Ozempic works because you eat less food. That's it. It makes you feel full, so if you can just do that on your own and get mind over matter, it's the same s--t.' The singer revealed that while she was experimenting with trendy weight loss medicines like Ozempic, she ultimately decided to focus on managing her calorie intake. 'It's just the science for me, calories in versus calories out,' she said. During the conversation the four time Grammy winner also revealed that she stopped being vegan after nearly a decade and changed her diet completely. 'When I was vegan, I was consuming a lot of fake meats, I was eating a lot of bread, I was eating a lot of rice, and I had to eat a lot of it to stay full,' she shared. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với sàn môi giới tin cậy IC Markets Tìm hiểu thêm Undo 'But really, I was consuming like 3,000 to 5,000 calories a day.' Her change started when she traveled to Japan and saw an evident shift in the way her body reacted to animal-based meals. The Japanese diet is supposedly the healthiest in the world, according to Lizzo. She said, 'My body was so happy. My body was like, 'More, more please.' And I was like, 'OK, this is what my body likes.'' Since every person's body is unique, Lizzo revealed that she doesn't want to give away too much about her own weight loss strategies in fear, that others won't get the same results. Although she didn't specify the brand or time she tried GLP-1, drugs like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro have grown in popularity as weight reduction aids. These medications, which were originally developed to treat type 2 diabetes, are now frequently used to aid in weight loss.

There was a time in the '90s when he delivered back-to-back hits, and everything he touched seemed to turn to gold.
