Kelly Clarkson Opens Up About Being ‘Pre-Diabetic’ and Her Weight Loss Journey

  • by

During a recent episode of her talk show, the Kelly Clarkson Show, Kelly Clarkson shared that she had been informed that she was at risk of developing diabetes before she decided to lose weight. However, she did not start losing weight right away.

Clarkson shared with her guest, actor Kevin James, that she had been informed she was at risk for developing diabetes due to being slightly overweight. She wasn't surprised by the news.

"They told me that I was pre-diabetic, almost reaching the threshold. At first, I didn't take it seriously and said, 'But I haven't reached that point yet,' she chuckles. Then, after two years, I finally decided, 'Okay, I need to take action.'"

Earlier this month, Clarkson discussed her recent weight loss, mentioning 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 mental and physical well-being.

She expressed her discontent with Los Angeles, mentioning that she had felt this way for a few years. She felt the need for 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 walking around the city and taking their dogs to the park.

She credits her weight loss to her diet, saying that she eats a balanced diet most of the time which includes a lot of protein, which she believes is beneficial for her health.

As someone from Texas, Clarkson humorously expressed her preference for meat over vegetarian options.

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