Lizzo is feelin’ good as hell in her new lace.
The Yitty co-founder, who’s been publicly documenting her fitness journey, showed another look at her weight transformation by modeling her brand’s latest lingerie drop.
In an April 17 Instagram post, the Special musician, 36, wore a fuschia bralette and panty set. And true to the combo’s delicate fabric, she fittingly announced that “smoothing lace is back” on Yitty’s website. This isn’t the first time Lizzo (real name Melissa Viviane Jefferson) has gushed over her brand, as she also posed in her popular black shapewear dress and mesh thong last month.
And when the “Juice” singer, who’s dating Myke Wright, isn’t championing her designs, she’s reflecting on her health. Over the last two years, Lizzo has shown her gym progress—including hitting her desired weight goal earlier this year—and different vegan recipes she eats while on the road. Though she’s scaled back on the latter, she’s embracing every step of this new journey.
In fact, she recently hit a new comforting level in her transformation where she’s now referring to her lifestyle change as a “release” instead of “loss.”
“The weight that is no longer on me is not just fat or physical,” Lizzo explained on the April 7 episode of Jay Shetty’s On Purpose podcast. “I released so much to get to this point and I think people can see that and I don’t want to describe anything as loss.”
The Grammy winner noted that she isn’t “experiencing any loss” while on this new journey. Instead, she’s “gained so much” self-love and understanding, and this intentional word choice helps remind her of that evolution—even if she knows people won’t understand her terminology.
“People aren’t going to understand this right now, but it’s the most body-positive way to experience what I’m going through,” she continued. “I don’t want to use any negative terms.”

Taking a Step Back
Lizzo has shared that she’s been in on “intentional weight release journey” since 2023.
She had also faced a lawsuit that year, filed by several of her former backup dancers who accused her of creating a “hostile, abusive work environment” and weight-shaming, accusations she vehemently denied.
“With passion comes hard work and high standards,” she wrote on Instagram. “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.”
“I know what it feels like to be body shamed on a daily basis, she continued, “and would absolutely never criticize or terminate an employee because of their weight.”
In between albums at the time, the “About Damn Time” artist announced in August 2024 that she was taking “a gap year & protecting my peace.”
Learning How to Love Me
Lizzo admittedly has her ups and downs when it comes to her body.
“I’m not going to lie and say I love my body every day,” she told The New York Times in April 2024. “The bottom line is, the way you feel about your body changes every single day. There are some days I adore my body, and others when I don’t feel completely positive.”
Looking Good as Hell No Matter What
In a Sept. 18, 2024, TikTok, Lizzo posted her own before and after, showing herself in a black two-piece before the video cut to her in a gray bodysuit.
As she captioned the clip, “Fine both ways.”
Dust Your Shoulders Off, Keep It Moving
“When you finally get Ozempic allegations after 5 months of weight training and calorie deficit,” Lizzo quipped via Instagram Sept. 20.
That Power Looks So Good on Her
The Grammy winner stepped out for lunch at Nobu Sept. 27 wearing a sheer black and white dress by Jean Paul Gaultier with a black bodysuit. She topped the look with a leather trenchcoat draped on her shoulders, large silver hoop earrings and black sunglasses.
Nobody’s Perfect
“I overate yesterday, and I’m feeling really bad about it,” she shared in a Sept. 30, 2024, TikTok while detailing the ups and downs of her journey. “I’m trying to remind myself that my body needs that nourishment and if my body deserves comfort then my brain deserves comfort too.”
She’s Her Own Inspiration
The singer has been all about TikTok fitspo, including one that explained how she pushes through workouts.
“I was doing Stairmaster today, and I was doing a higher level than normal,” the sweat-drenched star explained in October 2024, noting that in order to avoid quitting early, she dropped down to a lower speed. “Sometimes when you want to give up, it’s really just because you’ve been pushing yourself too hard. Don’t give up, just take it easier on yourself.”
Goooooal!!
“I did it,” Lizzo shared on Instagram Jan. 25, 2025. “Today when I stepped on my scale, I reached my weight release goal. I haven’t seen this number since 2014! Let this be a reminder you can do anything you put your mind to. Time for new goals!”

Massaging the Numbers
On July 3, 2025, Lizzo shared a before-and-after from her first lymphatic massage with Flavia Lanini vs. her latest.
She credited the treatment, which targets specific areas to move excess fluid away from tissues and toward lymph vessels and nodes to flush out toxins, along with wood therapy, training three times a week, pickleball, dancing, drinking water, consuming less sugar and more protein, a monthly detox and various other lifestyle adjustments for her health transformation.
