Kelly Clarkson Opens Up About Pre-Diabetes Diagnosis and Weight Loss Journey

  • by

During a recent episode of her talk show, the Kelly Clarkson Show, Kelly Clarkson shared that she had been diagnosed as pre-diabetic, which motivated her to start losing weight. However, she did not start the weight loss journey immediately.

Clarkson informed her guest, Kevin James, that she had been informed that she was at risk for developing diabetes. She wasn't surprised by this news, as she acknowledged that she was slightly overweight.

They told her she was at risk for developing diabetes, but she didn't take it seriously at first. After waiting for two years, she finally decided to take action before it was too late.

In a recent statement, Clarkson discussed her weight loss and attributed it to following her doctor's advice. She also mentioned that moving to New York City helped her develop healthier habits, both mentally and physically.

She mentioned that she had been feeling very unhappy in Los Angeles for a few years and was in need of a new beginning.

Clarkson moved her two children to the West Coast because they were also not thriving in their previous location. 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 mix of foods and follows a protein-rich diet 90% of the time because it works well for her.

Being from Texas, Clarkson joked that she enjoys eating meat and apologizes to any vegetarians out there.

After getting divorced from Brandon Blackstock in early 2022, the singer made the decision to move her TV show to New York.
