Elle King Opens Up About Her Incredible Weight Loss

Elle King, 34, recently debuted her slimmed-down figure on Instagram, and now she’s opening up about her weight-loss journey.

The singer revealed she changed her habits to shed the pounds, and shut down any rumors she’s on medication.

She wrote on Instagram, “Almost 2 years postpartum ! I am making this post to share my journey from 284 lbs at 5’3 from pregnancy 2021 - now 2023. It doesn’t happen over night. It didn’t even happen in a year for me. In fact, it’s an on going still working towards ever changing goals kinda thing.”

King, whose son Lucky is nearly 2, went on, “So why am I sharing this? I fell into a very deep depression during my pregnancy. I also didn’t even realize how intense postpartum depression is and was until I very slowly began to crawl out. I felt trapped in my body. I couldn’t even sing. So I started slow. Metabolic workouts. Light cardio to warm up my body, my lungs, my voice, and my spirit. I am a creature of habit, so I changed my f**king habits.”

As Elle felt her body getting stronger, she added more workouts, saying she exercises with fellow musician  Paul DeVincenzo, “who is basically a body builder.”

She encouraged fans to be their own champion, writing, “Find music you like! Ride a bike! Go for a swim! I thought I wanted to lose weight, but it’s so much more. My BRAIN functions better on the days I move my body. Some days I count stretch marks. Some days I hug myself and say thank you to my body. Today is a kind day. I’ve been tiny, I’ve been huge, BUT RIGHT NOW IM HEALTHY.”

Addressing medication rumors, she said, “I can’t believe that I even have to say this, but no, I am not on any weight loss medication. I have PCOS and am pre-diabetic. My diabetic grandfather died when I was 10 years old. I watched him prick his finger and give himself shots. I do not judge anyone who is trying to live a healthier life. I can only share MY OWN JOURNEY! I just hope to live a long, wonderful, healthy life where I can drink a lot, eat fish, laugh as much as I can, and die happy🤘😇.”

The “Ex’s & Oh’s” singer included a video of her tour routine, including squats, lunges and more. Check it out!
