Lizzo has left fans in awe this week with a striking Instagram post that highlights not only her bold new look but also her impressive progress on her weight loss journey. The 36-year-old singer shared a series of photos featuring herself in a white, frilly ensemble with intricately braided hair, captioning the post, “Last night I wore milkmaid braids.”
Adding a playful twist, she included a video of her mother rocking the same hairstyle, joking, “My mum stole my hairstyle and ate me up.”
Fans flooded the comments with praise, celebrating Lizzo’s transformation and her dedication to fitness. The star has previously spoken about her “natural weight-loss journey,” describing it as methodical and focused on slow, sustainable progress. Addressing rumors about weight-loss drugs, Lizzo clarified to The New York Times: “When you finally get Ozempic allegations after 5 months of weight training and calorie deficit.”
In the same interview, Lizzo delved into her evolving views on body positivity. “The idea of body positivity has moved away from the antiquated mainstream conception. It’s evolved into body neutrality. I’m not going to lie and say I love my body every day. The way you feel about your body changes daily. Some days, I adore my body; other days, I don’t feel completely positive.”
She has also shared her journey on TikTok, revealing in a recent video, “I overate yesterday, and I’m feeling really bad about it. I’m trying to remind myself that my body needed that nourishment. And if my body deserves comfort, then my brain deserves comfort too.”
Lizzo continues to inspire fans with her transparency, offering encouragement to those on similar paths: “If you’re going through this, [you’re] not alone.”
