Lizzo Shows Off New Body But Worries About Slipping Back Into Old Habits

Grammy winner Lizzo‘s been showing off her slimmed-down bod on social media, but sources tattle that she’s still struggling to adjust and using all her willpower to keep from piling the pounds back on.

The plus-size 36-year-old warbler — real name Melissa Jefferson — once lugged around over 300 pounds on her 5-foot-10 frame, but recently bragged that she’s lost more than 16 percent of her body fat, putting her at under 250.

The About Damn Time singer admitted she was fed up with “being the butt of the joke every single time because of how I look.”

Sources say: “She’s slimmer, and even though she still has some rolls and cellulite that’s okay by her. She’s feeling great!

“The problem now is keeping it off and not sliding back into old bad habits like junk food and ice cream, and slacking off on exercise.”

The Truth Hurts singer has long preached body acceptance at any size, but now that she’s gotten thinner, she’s “terrified” of seeing the pounds plop back on,” dishes the source.

“She is feeling so good right now — she’s got more energy and feels sexier, too.

“She can wear her dream clothes and all the briefest bikinis her money can buy.

“But she’s yo-yo dieted a lot before so it’s hard not to stress over gaining the weight back!”

The source says the Cuz I Love You singer plans to continue working with her trainer, walking every day and doing Pilates.

“The biggest worry is her diet,” warns the snitch. “If she starts eating all the crap again, she will end up as big as she was before — or bigger!”
