LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Lizzo's weight loss journey seems to be going well as she shared the before-and-after look in a recent video on Instagram on Wednesday, September 18.
The video consisted of two clips, in the first one, which seems to have been taken when she began her journey, the singer was wearing a black two-piece. In the second clip, Lizzo, donning a gray bodysuit, appeared noticeably slimmer.
The 'Juice' singer set the clips to the audio of Nicki Minaj saying, "The fact that you would even discuss my looks is insane. I’m a bad b***h, always been a bad b***h."

Lizzo came under scrutiny last year after three ex-backup dancers alleged that she fostered a "hostile, abusive work environment," shaming them over their weight while they worked for her, as per E! News.
The singer denied the accusations through an Instagram post, stating, "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."

In March, Lizzo announced she was "quitting" amid the controversies but clarified that she was not leaving the music industry.
In an Instagram video, shared on April 2, the 'Boys' singer said, "I just need to clarify when I say, ‘I quit,’ I mean I quit giving any negative energy attention," adding she would not quit making music, calling it "the joy of my life."
