Addressing the speculation surrounding her transformation, she stated, “Mine is a different one than people assume, but I ended up having to do that too because my blood work got so bad.”
The singer revealed that her doctor had been urging her to consider weight loss medication for two years due to health concerns, including pre-existing thyroid problems. Despite initial reservations, Clarkson ultimately decided to pursue the option as a means to address her health issues.

Instead, she described it as something that aids in breaking down sugar, which is crucial for managing her body’s response to dietary intake.
