LIZZO breaks her silence : “I LITERALLY STOPPED EATING FAST FOOD YEARS AGO.”
Lizzo is not trying to change her body; she’s trying to scroll social media without seeing disparaging comments about it.
Though that doesn’t seem like a hard ask, the Grammy winner, 35, often finds herself clapping back at trolls who use their small platforms to shame her for her weight.
Most recently, Lizzo went off on one specific hater who tweeted a video of her performing and wrote, “How is Lizzo THIS fat when she’s constantly moving this much on stage?! I wonder what she must be eating 🤣.”
“I JUST logged on [on this] app and this is the type of s–t I see about me on a daily basis,” the “Truth Hurts” singer replied Wednesday. “It’s really starting to make me hate the world.”
“Then someone in the comments said I eat ‘lots of fast food,'” she went on. “I LITERALLY STOPPED EATING FAST FOOD YEARS AGO.”
The Yitty shapewear line founder said she’s “tired of explaining” herself and “seeing [her] name in some bulls–t.”
In response to someone who claimed that Lizzo doesn’t want to change her appearance because her size is “her brand,” the hitmaker fired back, “I’m not trying to BE fat. I’m not trying to BE smaller. I’m literally just trying to live and be healthy. This is what my body looks like even when I’m eating super clean and working out!”

Anyone still on Twitter gets zero sympathy from me. She's addicted to attention as much as to food.

I feel people wouldn't care about her weight if she didn't constantly bring it up. I never thought much about Rosie O'Donnell or Monique being fat because I don't remember them making a big deal about it. Being fat is normal in The US now, nobody is phased by it.

Sure Jan and I’m the Easter bunny. You are stuffing your gullet with food. It doesn’t matter what you say.

Impossible to maintain the size she is without thousands of calories eaten per day, with not enough physical activity. Stop lying about your reasons. Just shrug and say "Yes, I eat what I want and I'm fat."

A couple nice restaurant meals a day would do it. Most contain at least a quarter stick of butter.

Funny that she sang a song called "Truth Hurts."
She certainly finds the truth about her weight hurtful.

People make fun of Chrissy Metz's weight all the time, and she rarely talks about it.
But I agree Lizzo wants it both ways, just like Sam Smith. She wants to flaunt her fat body, but she's not willing to ignore negative comments if she does.

Chrissy Metz is a lost cause. I think she realized this a long time ago, and gave up.

She probably isn’t eating fast food. She’s rich. You can eat clean and healthy foods, but if you eat too much of them you are still over consuming.
A meal out could have 1,200-2000 calories, from the restaurants who actually show calorie content. The poster above is correct that said two meals out would do it. A smart person knows to automatically halve their US restaurant meal and put it to the side for later.
I really like Lizzo and hope she stays strong. Maybe she could work with a nutritionist to discuss portioning. That part is the hardest I think. She doesn’t have to be small.

I absolutely believe she eats lean chicken and salads every day.

Exactly as R20 said, she may not eat fast food but eating 6 steaks for dinner or 2 whole chickens for breakfast will surely pack on the pounds

She loves attention. She flaunts her fat and expects no criticism? She's become a joke. On a different subject, I got to where I couldn't stand to watch Aretha, because, Jesus Christ she let it all hang out.

I don't eat fast food, and I was overweight for several years. Why? Because I ate JUNK food. Junk food and fast food are two different things, and Lizzo is playing word games.

The outfit she wore when she paid tribute to Tina Turner left me speechless for all of the wrong reasons.

Jesus Lizzo, we get it already. You’re insecure about being obese, so you’re overcompensating by constantly telling everyone how proud you are of it.

Yeah you can easily get fat eating fine cuisine. I love pastries and all of it, never have to eat fast food and could still be big as a house.

She will be thin by year's end. Mark my words. These meltdowns are preparation for her to justify using Ozempic. Best of luck to her.

Didn't I even read she's apparently VEGAN?
Is she eating 5 packages of Oreos© a day (Oreos are vegan, after all). Because that could do it.
It's NOT fast food, after all.

Ozempic only helps you lose about 12-20% of your body weight, and that's if you actually eat sensibly and exercise. There's not enough Ozempic in the world to get Lizzo thin.

r38 I just listened to the first part of her tribute (singing part) and she sounds like she doesn't know that song at all or it's maybe only the 2nd or 3rd time she's attempted to sing it after hearing it on the radio. I didn't want to listen to the rest.

We can thank Oprah for telling African American women not to be ashamed of their body size, and emphasized 'big is beautiful' for all these years. She told them to 'embrace themselves' and 'love their bodies' - so here's where we are in 2023.

r49, if she loved her body size she would not care if people said she ate fast food all the time.
Basically you can sum up Lizzo's attitude with this famous clip from "The Favourite":

R50 By wearing the costumes she wears while performing, and sharing the photos which she does on social media - YES, she loves her body size. She's proud of it. She's taking issue with those who don't love her body size the way she does.
