On Tuesday, the About Damn Time singer discussed her weight loss journey.

Per People, Lizzo once again slammed rumors that she was taking a weight loss drug like Ozempic and explained that she lost weight through a careful combination of diet and exercise.

The star confessed that she used to have "two or three" Starbucks drinks in a day before realizing how many calories were in them.

Now, she said that she usually opts for savory over sweet!

"Everybody's body is different. Find out what works for you," she said, adding that what "works across the board, science-wise, is calories in versus calories out... that's just how the human body works."

She has since cut out coffee altogether to help "regulate my nervous system" and began a calorie deficit to counter her self-confessed tendency to binge.

And, while she doesn't think that counting calories is healthy, she uses the method "as a tool to fight against the American food system."

Lizzo has shown a sense of humor over Ozempic rumors

In the past, the About Damn Time has shot down speculation that she used weight loss drugs like Ozempic to achieve her new shape.

The cheeky singer even dressed up as an Ozempic spoof for Halloween in a nod to the public discourse around her weight loss!

But even if she jokes about it, it's not cool to be critical of someone else's body. Lizzo has suffered from a lot of self-image issues over the course of her life, so everybody be nice out there!
