Lizzo revealed in a video Thursday that she ditched veganism in favor of an omnivorous, protein-rich diet.
The 36-year-old rapper and singer clarified her new approach to eating for her fans in a clip in which she shows everything she eats on a given day now that she’s added animal proteins back into her diet.
She gave a glimpse into a day in her life after flaunting her impressive weight loss and slimmed down figure in recent weeks.
Lizzo may also have wanted to come clean about what she’s been eating lately after she slammed rumors that she’s been taking weight-loss medications similar to Ozempic to help achieve her slimmer look.
She opened her video wearing a brown dress that accentuated her curves as she held up a lettuce wrap containing some meat and tomatoes towards the camera.

The 36-year-old rapper and singer clarified her new approach to eating for her fans in a clip in which she shows everything she eats on a given day now that she’s added animal protein back into her diet.
Lizzo started with a glass of lemon water, followed by a plate of assorted fruits (grapes and pineapple), ham-coated egg white cups, and a hash brown made from cauliflower.
The Truth Hurts singer simply took a bite of each one for the camera before placing the food back on her plate.
Next up was a glass of surprisingly viscous ‘okra water’, which she drank while she fixed her hair.
Lizzo demonstrated how thick the concoction was by dipping her straw into the glass and then pulling it out to see a syrupy strand hanging from it.
For lunch, he ate a buffalo chicken lettuce wrap with lots of mustard, and cooled it down with a pitcher of peach iced tea that he poured into a giant hot pink Stanley glass.
Lizzo threw on some sunglasses and a yellow graphic T-shirt for her next meal, which she ate on an outdoor patio.
She dined on a roasted chicken breast garnished with carrots and asparagus in a plastic container.
Lizzo made up for the audio-less video by adding her own narration explaining her decision to ditch her vegan diet in favor of an omnivorous diet.
“My reintroduction to protein came from Japan,” she shared, explaining that a trip to the Asian nation left her feeling fantastic after dining on fresh sushi and “fluffy” eggs.
“I was surprised at how good my body felt the next day,” she admitted.
Since adding animal proteins back into her diet, Lizzo thought they were helping her have “more energy, lose weight” and deal with the “brain fog” she was suffering from.

She took just one bite of each fruit, ham-coated egg white cups, and a cauliflower hash brown before placing them back on her plate.

Despite leaving veganism behind, she said she still thought it was the healthiest option and aspired to one day be a “raw, alkaline vegan.”
However, there is little scientific support for the purported health benefits of an alkaline diet (although focusing on avoiding processed foods may be beneficial) and many vegetables can be better digested after cooking.
Lizzo concluded the video by stating that she wouldn’t judge anyone else for their diet, whether they were raw vegans or meat eaters.
Some of his fans in the comments did not appreciate his rejection of veganism, although it was just a personal choice and not a total rejection of the philosophy.
One angry person took issue with calling herself a person “who added protein to her diet,” calling the phrase “so wrong, honestly.”
‘You already have protein in your vegan diet, honey. You just added dead animals to your diet, that’s the right word. Xoxo’, they wrote.
“Veganism is not a diet,” another person wrote, apparently meaning that it was more than just a weight loss strategy.
Others wondered how they could overcome the “cruelty” they considered inherent in the production of animal foods.
For lunch, he ate a buffalo chicken lettuce wrap with lots of mustard, and cooled it down with a pitcher of peach iced tea that he poured into a giant hot pink Stanley glass.
He said he re-embraced meat after feeling great after a meal of fresh sushi and “fluffy” eggs in Japan. The protein helped cloud her mind and gave her more energy while helping her lose weight.
Lizzo, seen here dining on roast chicken, carrots and asparagus, said she wouldn’t judge anyone else for their diet, whether raw vegan or carnivorous.
In recent weeks, she has slammed rumors that she has been taking a drug similar to Ozempic to help her lose weight. Instead, she attributed the weight loss to a healthier diet and exercise, along with more mindful eating (right, in 2022).
One person even accused Lizzo of “never” being vegan, seemingly accusing her of not faithfully following the plant-based diet.
Lizzo’s focus on her diet comes after weeks of highlighting her weight loss on social media.
The body positive artist stripped down to her underwear to reveal her progress so far, but took offense at the suggestion that her weight loss was not the product of a healthier diet, more conscious eating and regular exercise.
Last month, he complained on Instagram that he “finally received Ozempic accusations after 5 months of weight training and calorie deficit.”
