During an episode of her talk show, the Kelly Clarkson Show, Kelly Clarkson shared that she was told she was at risk of developing diabetes before she decided to lose weight, although she didn't start right away.
Clarkson explained to her guest, actor Kevin James, that she was informed she was at risk of developing diabetes. She wasn't surprised by the news as she acknowledged that she was slightly above her ideal weight.
"They told me I was pre-diabetic, meaning I was close to developing diabetes. At first, I didn't take it seriously and thought I wasn't there yet," she explains with a chuckle. "After waiting for two years, I finally decided to take action and address the issue."
In a recent interview, Clarkson mentioned her recent weight loss and attributed it to following her doctor's advice. She also shared that moving to New York City helped her develop healthier habits for both her mind and body.
At the time, she expressed that she was feeling extremely dissatisfied with her life in Los Angeles and had been feeling that way for a number of years. She felt the need to make 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 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 and healthy mix of foods. She stated that she follows a protein-rich diet most of the time as it works well for her.
"I come from Texas, so I have a preference for meat – apologies to all the vegetarians out there!" Clarkson humorously stated.
The singer made a decision to move and also moved her TV show to New York after her divorce from Brandon Blackstock was completed in early 2022.
