Lizzo Celebrates Hitting Weight Loss Goal: ‘Time for New Goals’

The 4-time Grammy winner says she hasn’t been her goal weight since 2014.

Lizzo has reached a milestone weight “release” goal and wants fans to meet their own aims.

On Saturday, January 25, the “Special” singer posted a mirror selfie to Instagram, where, positioned beside her, was a sticker reading “Congratulations! You’ve met your weight goals.” In the picture, Lizzo wears a headwrap and matching mauve two-piece set. The second slide shows that her weight loss goal was achieved, along with a 10.5 BMI reduction and body fat lowered by 16 percent.

“I did it,” the caption began. “Today when I stepped on my scale, I reached my weight release goal. I haven’t seen this number since 2014! Let this be a reminder you can do anything you put your mind to. Time for new goals!”

While the 4-time Grammy winner has long been a body positivity advocate, she’s closely documented her health journey over the last year, but has also allowed herself moments to indulge.

“I overate yesterday and im feeling really bad about it,” read the message over a clip of Lizzo wrote in a TikTok posted in September. "I'm trying to remind myself that my body needed that nourishment. And if my body deserves comfort then my brain deserves comfort too."

The singer’s size was made fun of in a South Park episode last May, but Lizzo got the last laugh when she wore a Halloween costume referencing the show in October.
