There’s no point in stressing out over speculation and rumors regarding Lizzo — she’s an open book.
On a June 19 episode of the Just Trish podcast, Lizzo admitted that she tried Ozempic and other GLP-1 drugs, which are used to regulate type 2 diabetes and obesity, at one point in her “weight release” journey.
Over the years, the “Truth Hurts” singer has been rather forthcoming with her fitness journey, documenting it on social media and sharing her progress with her fanbase.
“I tried everything,” she told Trisha Paytas. “Ozempic works because you eat less food, yeah? So if you eat right, it makes you feel full. But if you can just do that on your own and get mind over matter, it’s the same item.”
In the podcast, Lizzo shut down critics of Ozempic and GLP-1 drugs, noting that people are not “cheating” by using the products.
“It’s not easy,” Lizzo said. “It’s a drug to help somebody with something they’re struggling with. I think people… it’s their way of being fat phobic when you’re telling someone they’re cheating.”
“I feel like people just like to make fun of fat people. Whether you’re big or small or got small, they like to make fun of us,” she said.
Lizzo claimed that she started noticing different results when adding meat back into her diet. “What did it for me is it was not being vegan,” she said. “Because 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.”
In her opinion, the “fake sugar and weird shit” in processed foods was holding her back, causing her to eat 3,000 to 5,000 calories a day. “When I started actually eating whole foods and eating, like, beef and chicken and fish,” she said, “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.”
“I feel like I worked really, really hard and I was intentional what I did with my body,” she added.
And that’s that! Take that shame somewhere else because Lizzo doesn’t play that.
