Lizzo has lost weight very slowly and methodically since starting her journey in 2023. She has not publicly stated an exact number of pounds lost but reported lowering her body mass index (BMI) by 10.5 points and losing 16% of her body fat as of early 2025. She refers to her weight loss as "weight release" to reflect a holistic approach to health rather than focusing on just losing pounds. Lizzo's trainer and she herself confirmed that her transformation is attributed to healthy habits like caloric deficit, high- protein diet, strength training, and consistent workouts, not weight loss drugs like Ozempic. The singer reached a weight on the scale she had not seen since 2014 and emphasizes that her health journey is about feeling good and holistic wellness rather than being thin.
