Kelly Clarkson<\/a> is making a candid revelation about her weight loss journey.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n While interviewing <\/span>Whoopi Goldberg<\/a> on <\/span>Monday’s episode<\/a> of <\/span>The Kelly Clarkson Show<\/a>,<\/span><\/em> the 42-year-old singer revealed her experience using weight loss drugs amid her recent physical transformation. The star, who stands about 5’3, said she weighed 203 pounds at her “heaviest.”\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The topic came up after Clarkson complimented Goldberg’s appearance, noting that she looks “younger.” The 68-year-old actress said that it’s because of “all the weight I’ve lost,” declaring that she’s “lost almost two people.”\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n “I am doing that wonderful shot that works for folks who need some help, and it’s been really good for me,” Goldberg told Clarkson.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n “Mine is a different one than people assume, but I ended up having to do that too because my bloodwork got so bad,” Clarkson replied.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n “My doctor chased me for two years and I was like, ‘No, I’m afraid of it,'” she admitted. “I already have thyroid problems. I was afraid. Everybody thinks it’s Ozempic, but it’s not. It’s something else. But it’s something that aids in helping break down the sugar. Obviously my body doesn’t do it right.”\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Clarkson also recalled a recent eye-opening moment in which she watched back footage of herself performing prior to her weight loss. She said she was stunned to see her physical appearance.<\/span><\/p>\n “I paused it and I was like, ‘Who the f**k is that?’ she joked.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n “You see it and you’re like, ‘She’s about to die of a heart attack,'” Clarkson added.<\/span><\/p>\n “It’s kind of incredible though because it’s a weird thing,” she mused. “I never saw that. I was never insecure about that… I was happy. People are like, ‘Oh, she must not have been happy.’ It’s like, ‘No, I was happy!’ I just did not see that.”\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Goldberg said that she had a similar revelation after a critic “thought i was wearing a fat suit” in the 2023 film <\/span>Till<\/span><\/em>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n “I was indignant,” Goldberg said. “And then I saw, and I was like, well, it does look like I’m wearing a fat suit.”\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Earlier this year, Clarkson revealed on her show that she was inspired to lose weight after <\/span>being diagnosed as pre-diabetic<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n The mother of two said she “wasn’t shocked” by the diagnosis, noting, “I was a tiny bit overweight.”\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Sharing that her doctors informed her she was “on the borderline,” Clarkson admitted to waiting “two years” before doing anything about her weight. But as she got closer to a diabetes diagnosis, she decided to make a change.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n “I was like, ‘OK, I’ll do something about it,'” she said.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Around the same time, Clarkson found herself relocating to New York City <\/span>following her 2020 split<\/a> from ex-husband, Brandon Blackstock. The former couple shares daughter River Rose, 9, and Remington “Remy” Alexander, 8.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Back in November 2023,\u00a0<\/span>Clarkson told ET<\/a>\u00a0of the move, “We walk around in the park. Like, we have more of a life. This is what my goal was, for us to actually engage outside our house. And you have to in New York.”<\/span><\/p>\n
