Exercising for Mental Health

"I think a lot of people see a fat person that way and immediately just assume everything they are doing is trying to be thin. I'm not trying to be thin. I don't ever want to be thin. The goal is always here," Lizzo explained in a recent TikTok addressing her weight loss. "Once I started working out for mental health, to have balanced mental health for endorphins, so that I don't look at myself in the mirror and feel ashamed of myself and feel disgusted with myself, exercise has helped me shift my mind — not my body," She said, adding that she "started to take the physical part" of her job seriously. "My body is going to change, everyone's bodies change," she said. "That's life, that's what the human existence is …"But embracing the fact that your body changes, that's a part of it. And making sure that this is what we have the power over," she continued. "Everything I eat, everything I do, every time I move my body, it's all for this. If this ain't happy, none of this is happy."

Self-Care

Lizzo has always said that self-care looks different for everyone. "Self care is in the little moments — bathing, sweating, washing your hair.. it's in laughing so hard you can barely catch a breath, your lungs expanding on a morning jog… now more than ever we need to enjoy the quiet within ourselves," Lizzo said on Instagram.

Self-Love

Lizzo loves her body at all shapes and sizes. "I'm doing this for myself. I love creating shapes with my body, and I love normalizing the dimples in my" backside "or the lumps in my thighs or my back fat or my stretch marks. … I think it's beautiful," she told Essence. "I don't think that loving yourself is a choice. I think that it's a decision that has to be made for survival; it was in my case," she added to NBC News. "Loving myself was the result of answering two things: Do you want to live? 'Cause this is who you're gonna be for the rest of your life. Or are you gonna just have a life of emptiness, self-hatred and self-loathing? And I chose to live, so I had to accept myself."

Daily Exercise

Lizzo works out daily. "I want people to realize that fitness doesn't have a look or an aesthetic or a weight. Fitness is a very personal thing that's between you and your doctor," she told Billboard. "To have a big black girl singing about how she's working on the calisthenics – because mind you, I be in the gym everyday, but people don't believe that … I think that it's empowering for young girls, to see that it's okay to work out and not have a six-pack."

Clean, Vegan Eating

Lizzo told Vanity Fair that she leads a "very healthy lifestyle" and maintains a healthy diet. "I try to keep everything I put in my body super clean," Lizzo said. "Health is something I prioritize, wherever that leads me physically. Like veganism, people were like, 'You're a vegan? What, are you deep frying the lettuce?' I'm not a vegan to lose weight, I just feel better when I eat plants," she said.
