Kelly Clarkson Opens Up About Being Pre-Diabetic Before Weight Loss: The Journey to Health and Happiness

  • by

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

Clarkson explained to her guest, Kevin James, that she was informed she was at risk for developing diabetes because she was slightly overweight. She wasn't surprised by the news.

"They told me that I was pre-diabetic, just on the edge of being diabetic. I didn't take it seriously at first, but after two years I finally decided to take action."

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

She expressed her dissatisfaction with Los Angeles and mentioned that she had been feeling unhappy there for a few years. She felt the need for a new beginning.

Clarkson moved her two children to the West Coast because they were not thriving there. The family likes to stay active by taking advantage of the city's walkability and bringing their dogs to the park.

She credits her weight loss to her diet, saying that she eats a balanced diet most of the time, with a focus on protein which is beneficial for her.

As someone from Texas, Clarkson humorously mentioned her preference for meat and playfully apologized to any vegetarians out there.

After her divorce from Brandon Blackstock was finalized in early 2022, the singer made the decision to move, including relocating her TV show to New York.
