Lizzo is sharing exactly how she feels, even on the hard days.
The “Good As Hell” singer—who recently made her first public appearance since detailing her weight loss transformation—opened up about having a difficult day processing what she feels is a step back in her health journey.
“I overate yesterday,” Lizzo wrote on top of a Sept. 30 TikTok video of herself standing fully in frame wearing a white and red striped long-sleeved shirt and denim skirt, “and im feeling really bad about it.”
The 36-year-old went on to share the reminders she is using to encourage herself in the midst of disappointment.
“Im trying to remind myself that my body needed that nourishment,” she continued. “And if my body deserves comfort then my brain deserves comfort too.”
Lizzo paired the video to an audio track by TikTok user soulxsigh, which said, “You did good today. Really good. You might not see it, you might think it was just another day, but it wasn't. Every step you took today was a step forward no matter how small.”
In the caption of the TikTok post, the Grammy winner wrote, “If you’re going through this ur not alone.”
And Lizzo’s followers quickly confirmed that sentiment of not being on this path alone, with one user commenting, “Happens to us all! Just get up today and keep going girl! You’ve got this. You are right where you are meant to be.”
Another wrote, “I needed this! Thanks.”
Lizzo’s vulnerability is her latest update since posting two videos on Sept. 18 showing off the results of her months-long health journey that has included working out and “calorie deficit.”
In the “before” part of one of the videos, the body positivity advocate sported a black two-piece Yitty set before cutting to the “after” portion, where the “About Damn Time” singer wore a gray bodysuit that displayed her body’s transformation, writing in the caption, “Fine both ways.”

Taking a Step Back
Lizzo has shared that she's been in on "intentional weight release journey" since 2023.
She had also faced a lawsuit that year, filed by several of her former backup dancers who accused her of creating a "hostile, abusive work environment" and weight-shaming, accusations she vehemently denied.
"With passion comes hard work and high standards," she wrote on Instagram. "Sometimes I have to make hard decisions but it's never my intention to make anyone feel uncomfortable or like they aren't valued as an important part of the team."
"I know what it feels like to be body shamed on a daily basis, she continued, "and would absolutely never criticize or terminate an employee because of their weight."
In between albums at the time, the "About Damn Time" artist announced in August 2024 that she was taking "a gap year & protecting my peace."
Learning How to Love Me
Lizzo admittedly has her ups and downs when it comes to her body.
"I'm not going to lie and say I love my body every day," she told The New York Times in April 2024. "The bottom line is, the way you feel about your body changes every single day. There are some days I adore my body, and others when I don't feel completely positive."
Looking Good as Hell No Matter What
In a Sept. 18, 2024, TikTok, Lizzo posted her own before and after, showing herself in a black two-piece before the video cut to her in a gray bodysuit.
As she captioned the clip, "Fine both ways."
Dust Your Shoulders Off, Keep It Moving
"When you finally get Ozempic allegations after 5 months of weight training and calorie deficit," Lizzo quipped via Instagram Sept. 20.
That Power Looks So Good on Her
The Grammy winner stepped out for lunch at Nobu Sept. 27 wearing a sheer black and white dress by Jean Paul Gaultier with a black bodysuit. She topped the look with a leather trenchcoat draped on her shoulders, large silver hoop earrings and black sunglasses.
Nobody’s Perfect
"I overate yesterday, and I'm feeling really bad about it," she shared in a Sept. 30, 2024, TikTok while detailing the ups and downs of her journey. "I'm trying to remind myself that my body needs that nourishment and if my body deserves comfort then my brain deserves comfort too."
She’s Her Own Inspiration
The singer has been all about TikTok fitspo, including one that explained how she pushes through workouts.
"I was doing Stairmaster today, and I was doing a higher level than normal," the sweat-drenched star explained in October 2024, noting that in order to avoid quitting early, she dropped down to a lower speed. "Sometimes when you want to give up, it's really just because you've been pushing yourself too hard. Don't give up, just take it easier on yourself."
Goooooal!!
"I did it," Lizzo shared on Instagram Jan. 25, 2025. "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!"

Massaging the Numbers
On July 3, 2025, Lizzo shared a before-and-after from her first lymphatic massage with Flavia Lanini vs. her latest.
She credited the treatment, which targets specific areas to move excess fluid away from tissues and toward lymph vessels and nodes to flush out toxins, along with wood therapy, training three times a week, pickleball, dancing, drinking water, consuming less sugar and more protein, a monthly detox and various other lifestyle adjustments for her health transformation.
