Lizzo Struggled With Dark Thoughts ... As She Started Slim-Down

Published | Updated

Lizzo just opened up about the start of her weight-loss journey two years ago -- and says back then, she was in such a dark place she was suicidal.

The singer -- who’s dropped 16% of her body fat -- says she was severely depressed when she first started losing weight in fall 2023 ... especially with the whole world turning its back on her in the middle of what she calls a vicious scandal -- the sexual-harassment lawsuit filed by three of her former backup dancers.

Lizzo wrote in a Substack post this weekend she shut out her loved ones and couldn’t trust anybody ... and was desperate to change how she felt about her body -- especially after years of hanging onto relationships that were deeply toxic and abusive following her dad’s death in 2009.
