Lizzo believes we, as a society, must “undo the effects of the Ozempic boom” because plus-sized women are being “erased.”

The musician, 37, took to Substack on Sunday to share an essay titled, “Why is everybody losing weight and what do we do? Sincerely, a person who’s lost weight.”

Lizzo, who began shedding pounds in the fall of 2023 following a very public harassment and hostile work environment scandal, confessed that the ordeal made her “deeply suicidal.”

“We’re in an era where the bigger girls are getting smaller because they’re tired of being judged. And now those bigger girls are being judged for getting smaller by the very community they used to empower,” she argued.

“There’s nothing wrong with living in a bigger body. There’s nothing wrong with being fat. But if a woman wants to change, she should be allowed to change.”

According to Lizzo, “extended sizes are being magically erased from websites,” “plus sized models are no longer getting booked for modeling gigs” and “all of our big girls are not-so big anymore.”

“All I notice is an odd acid reflux when eating first couple days after I inject...”

Acid problems are a common gastrointestinal side effect of the medication. Ozempic slows down stomach emptying, which can lead to heartburn, especially when starting the medication or after a dose. Just keep whatever antacid you use handy.

“I went on consentyx same time for psoriatic arthritis...”

Because I have a variety of things I also use dupixant on a by-weekly, taken at home. It helps with my arthritis and my lung problems, to an extent. When it rains it pours.

I feel u

Lifetime malformed LAD that didn’t go to the bottom of ventricle and HIS bundle disease sort of a Marfan but not really situation
Graves
Cataracts
Now CHF
Cervical spondylosis
Empty sella pituitary

But psoriatic arthritis is the big beast I deal with

I’ve had a great very fully life though

The heart I knew in my teens sucked but I always pushed anyhow

Mountaineering
Sports
Ocean crossing sailing
Stressful but super hot women
Five kids

Even now I push at 68

Experimental high risk 10% death rate surgery on my LAD which helped dramatically nine years ago when I was down to months was a game changer

We’ll see

I refuse to get a blue sticker till I’m literally crawling despite my rib up my butt

I’m just like that

Though flu last January bout got me

So there is that

Lasix bags five days in hospital got the edema off

Prolly my closest call

Keep moving stay alive
