Lizzo

But I would say on like my public relationship, yes. I'm very careful about what's happening with me right now. I have been on an intentional weight release journey. And I put it on the internet. I posted about it maybe a year and a half ago. And I was very clear that this time it's intentional. I've always been very like... work athletic online.

I work out, you know, I'm always like, you know, eating and showing how I eat and like always trying to like eat healthy. And I remember once I started becoming famous, like 2018, 2019, I was, and I was like a big girl. And I was like, it's going to be on me to show the world that big girls can also be healthy. Big girls can also have stamina. Big girls can also be loved.

Big girls can also be sexy, et cetera, et cetera. All the things that I, you know, stood for. And I told people that I was going on an intentional weight release journey because I wanted to be transparent in that way. Because I do feel like I have a relationship with the public where it's like, I am their friend and it is relatable. You know what I mean? It is relatable to struggle with your body.

So I put it out there. And I think over the last year and a half, as I've been doing it, my body has been changing very slowly. But I don't think people were paying attention. I would show different things like, oh, I showed my workouts or I'd show like what I eat in a day. Or I would say, I started off the year by being like, hey, new year, new me trends don't have to be toxic.

Please be careful when you're posting about your January fitness goals because it can be very fat phobic. Like I was still very... like anti-fat phobia on this entire journey. But I think that, you know, we got to remember everybody not seeing your shit all the time. Everybody not seeing every video you post. Everybody's not privy to what you're going through. They're not with you every day.

So when I pop out on a red carpet or when a video suddenly goes viral and my body's different, it appears like it was overnight. It appears sudden. And I think that was shocking to a lot of people because now the headline is Lizzo Skinny. which is a far cry from the truth because I'm not. I'm not.

And even in my original video, I was like, when I reach my weight release goal, I'm not going to be considered thin by any means, by any metric, by any BMI. I will still get

trolled and talked about and the fat jokes will still be there but I'll be happy and I said that because I meant it and here I am and I was like how did y'all how are y'all how where's the the disconnect but I think the disconnect is communication yeah yeah that's such a good point I've been so transparent. So if anyone wanted to look at my paper trail, it's there.

But I also know that they're not going to. And my responsibility as someone who has this relationship with the public and they have it with me is to continue. I'm not going to stop and get defensive and be like, God, I did for a second. I was like, I'm not skinny. Why are y'all saying that?

And that kind of baffled me because it's just like, if y'all knew how much I weighed, if y'all knew what my body really looked like, and I was like, oh, okay. just show them what your body looks like. Just be real about it. Just be real about the body dysmorphia that you're experiencing, you know, now that you have released some weight that's kind of new to you.
