Lizzo is worried weight-loss drugs have led to plus-sized women being "erased"

In a post shared to Substack titled: "Why is everybody losing weight and what do we do? Sincerely, a person who's lost weight", she wrote: "So here we are halfway through the decade, where extended sizes are being magically erased from websites.

"Plus-sized models are no longer getting booked for modeling gigs. And all of our big girls are not-so-big anymore.

"I am still a proud big girl. Objectively Big. Over 200 pounds. And I love myself as much as I've loved myself no matter what the scale says."

The Good As Hell hitmaker believes some people embraced the body positivity movement "for financial gain or fame" and she is keen to drive the message away from "commercial slop".

She continued: "There may be some bad actors amongst us. Some people may have used the movement for financial gain or fame, and once it no longer served them they abandoned it. That's ok, it was never about them anyway.

"We have a lot of work to do, to undo the effects of the ozempic boom. I have a lot of work to do to regain the trust of the movement that gave me wings. It is work I am willing and ready to do.

"What do we do? We continue to have conversations. We continue to hold each other accountable. We release ourselves from the illusion that there is only good and bad. We re-introduce nuance into our discussions.

"I want us to allow the body positive movement to expand and grow far away from the commercial slop its become. Because movements move.."

Lizzo noted conversations about weight are not simple, and admitted her own weight loss was partly driven because she was "sick and tired" of her size "overshadowing" everything else about her.

She wrote: "People could not see my talent as a musician because they were too busy accusing me of making 'being fat' my whole personality.

"I had to actively work against 'mammy' tropes by being hypersexual and vulgar because being a mammy by definition is being desexualized.

"And that's the reality that nobody wants to talk about.

"We're in an era where the bigger girls are getting smaller because they're tired of being judged."
