Lizzo
Struggled With Dark Thoughts …
As She Started Slim-Down

Lizzo just opened up about the start of her weight-loss journey two years ago — and says back then, she was in such a dark place she was suicidal.

Lizzo wrote in a Substack post this weekend she shut out her loved ones and couldn’t trust anybody … and was desperate to change how she felt about her body — especially after years of hanging onto relationships that were deeply toxic and abusive following her dad’s death in 2009.
She says the weight loss was never about trying to be thin — mainly ’cause she doesn’t think she’ll ever fit that conventional standard anyway — but she did admit the way she was introduced to the world as this confident, body-positive superstar was borderline emotional abuse.
