Kelly Clarkson Opens Up About Being ‘Pre-Diabetic’ Before Weight Loss Journey

  • by

During a recent episode of her talk show, the Kelly Clarkson Show, Kelly Clarkson shared that she was diagnosed as pre-diabetic before deciding to lose weight. However, she did not start her weight loss journey right away.

Clarkson shares with her guest, Kevin James, that she was informed that she was at risk for developing diabetes. She wasn't surprised by the news, as she admitted to being slightly overweight.

"They told me that I was pre-diabetic, meaning I was close to developing diabetes. I didn't take it seriously at first, but after two years, I decided to take action."

Recently, Clarkson discussed her weight loss, explaining that she lost weight by following her doctor's advice. She also mentioned that moving to New York City helped her develop healthier habits for both her mind and body.

She mentioned that she had been feeling unhappy in Los Angeles for a long time and was looking for a new beginning.

Clarkson moved her two children to the West Coast because they were also struggling. The family likes to stay active by taking advantage of the city's walkable amenities and bringing their dogs to the park.

She also credits her weight loss to the way she eats, mentioning that she consumes a balanced diet most of the time and focuses on protein because it works well for her.

As a girl from Texas, Clarkson humorously stated that she enjoys eating meat and apologized to vegetarians around the world.

The singer made a decision to move her TV show to New York after her divorce from Brandon Blackstock was finalized in early 2022.
