During a recent episode of her talk show, the Kelly Clarkson Show, Kelly Clarkson shared that she was diagnosed as pre-diabetic, which motivated her to start losing weight, although not right away.
"I was informed that I was at risk of developing diabetes. That's basically what happened," Clarkson explains to her guest on the show, actor Kevin James from King of Queens. "I wasn't surprised. I was slightly above my ideal weight."
"They told me that I was at risk for developing diabetes, but I didn't take it seriously at first. After two years, I finally decided to take action."
Clarkson recently discussed her weight loss, attributing it to following her doctor's advice and making healthier choices after moving to New York City.
She expressed that she was feeling very dissatisfied and unhappy while living in Los Angeles for a number of 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, stating that she consumes a balanced and healthy mix of foods. She mentioned that she sticks to her diet 90% of the time, as a protein-rich diet works well for her.
As a girl from Texas, Clarkson humorously mentioned her preference for meat over vegetables, apologizing to any vegetarians in the audience.
After getting divorced from Brandon Blackstock in early 2022, the singer made the decision to move her TV show to New York.
