During a recent episode of her talk show, the Kelly Clarkson Show, Kelly Clarkson shared that she had been told she was at risk for developing diabetes before she decided to start losing weight. However, she did not start losing weight right away.
Clarkson shared with her guest, Kevin James, that she was informed of being pre-diabetic. She mentioned that she wasn't surprised by the news as she recognized that she was 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, thinking I wasn't at that stage yet," she says jokingly. "After two years, I finally decided to take action and address the issue."
Recently, Clarkson discussed her weight loss and mentioned that she lost weight by following her doctor's advice. She also stated 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 long time and was looking 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 walkable areas and by taking their dogs to the park.
She credits her weight loss to her diet, stating that she eats a balanced mix of foods and is successful at sticking to it 90% of the time because a high-protein diet works well for her.
"I come from Texas, so I have a preference for meat – my apologies to all the vegetarians out there!" Clarkson playfully commented.
After her divorce from Brandon Blackstock was finalized in early 2022, the singer made the decision to move and also moved her TV show to New York.
