UPDATE: Meghan Trainor has decisively addressed criticism following her impressive 60-lb weight loss, revealing that she feels healthier and more confident than ever. In a candid interview with Entertainment Tonight on November 13, 2023, the 31-year-old singer of “All About That Bass” asserted her pride in her transformation, attributing her success to a combination of working with a trainer and using the GLP-1 medication Mounjaro.
Trainor stated, “I’m literally, for the first time ever, after having babies, taking care of my health to the highest level. I’ve never felt better and I look incredible, I feel great.” She expressed frustration over the scrutiny regarding her appearance, saying, “I was like, ‘Wait a second, I’m taking care of myself. You don’t like it?’”
The mother of two, sharing sons Riley, 4, and Barry, 2, with husband Daryl Sabara, elaborated on her journey to health. She revealed she began taking Mounjaro, the brand name for tirzepatide, to support her weight loss after giving birth to Barry in July 2023.
In her remarks, she highlighted the disheartening focus on her body rather than her music, stating, “It was a little bit disheartening that so many of the questions were focused on my body instead of my music, my passion, or the decade of hard work that got me here.”
Trainor emphasized her commitment to a healthier lifestyle, saying, “I’ve worked with a dietician, made huge lifestyle changes, started exercising with a trainer, and yes, I used science and support to help me after my 2nd pregnancy.” She proudly declared, “I feel great,” underscoring her dedication to personal health.
The singer also shared insights from her and Sabara’s joint health journey, revealing they both began taking Mounjaro after hearing recommendations from friends and doctors. “We were like, ‘We have to make sure we don’t lose muscle that we worked so hard gaining all those years,’” she explained. Their approach combines rigorous workouts and healthy eating, resulting in a successful partnership in fitness.
“I’m really proud of myself for learning. It was really hard to do and I’m going to keep getting better and keep getting stronger,” Trainor stated passionately. “No one can stop me — not even mean comments.”
This latest revelation from Trainor not only highlights her personal journey but also underscores the ongoing conversation surrounding body image and health in the public eye. As she prepares to release her new single, “Still Don’t Care,” the singer is poised to inspire others with her message of resilience and self-love.
