  • by

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 started working on losing weight.

Clarkson revealed that she was informed she was pre-diabetic during a conversation with Kevin James on her show. She admitted that she wasn't surprised by the news, as she acknowledged being slightly overweight.

"They told me that I was at risk of developing diabetes, right on the edge. I didn't take it seriously at first, but after two years, I finally decided to take action."

Clarkson recently 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 very unhappy in Los Angeles for a long time and was in need of a new beginning.

Clarkson moved her two children to the West Coast because they were also not thriving there. The family likes to stay active by walking around the city and taking their dogs to the park.

She credits her weight loss to her diet, mentioning that she consumes a balanced mix of foods and sticks to it about 90 percent of the time. She believes that following a high-protein diet is beneficial for her overall health.

Being from Texas, Clarkson jokingly expressed her love for meat and apologized to vegetarians around the world.

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