Elle King gets vulnerable with fans through her music and also opens up about real-life struggles online. The “Ex’s & Oh’s” singer shared her amazing weight loss results after embarking on a health and fitness journey after welcoming her son in September 2021.

“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,” Elle wrote via Instagram in August 2023 alongside a mini tour vlog. “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.”

Elle has battled her weight for most of her life. She revealed in an August 2024 appearance on Bunnie Xo‘s “Dumb Blonde” podcast that her Saturday Night Live alum dad Rob Schneider sent her away to “fat camp” as a child.

The country star revealed she suffered from postpartum depression that made her feel “trapped” in her body and “couldn’t even sing,” in a August 2023 Instagram post.

Elle praised being the healthiest she has ever been and made it abundantly clear she did not turn to weight loss pills, like the celebrity craved Ozempic, for her drastic results.

“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!” she continued. “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 following month, the singer revealed famous father Rob Schneider sent her away to weight-loss camp during her youth.

“I was, like, a really, really heavy child. My dad sent me to fat camp. And then I got in trouble one year because I sprained my ankle and I didn’t lose any weight. Very toxic and very silly,” Elle told Bunnie Xo on her “Dumb Blonde” podcast on August 12.
