Lizzo announced that she was going on a “weight release journey" in 2023, and in 2025 she announced that she had reached her weight release goal. Her primary goal was to improve her mental health, and since exercise and a healthy diet are a proven way to improve mental health, she set a weight target at the same time.
Lizzo’s overall weight loss strategy has been to focus on caloric deficit, meaning that she burns more calories than she consumes every day. She has done this by lifting weights, taking long walks, jumping rope, doing Pilates, and eating a healthy diet. She did try the weight loss drug Ozempic at one point, but ultimately decided it wasn't right for her. She has reportedly lost a total of 60 pounds (27 kg) since she started her journey in 2023.
