Meghan Trainor has spoken out against public scrutiny following her recent weight loss transformation and breast augmentation, insisting that despite the hate, she has “never felt better”. 

The “All about that bass” singer emphasised her focus on health following the release of her latest single “Still don’t care”, another self-love anthem that is set to feature in her seventh forthcoming album next April, “Toy with me”. 

Responding to criticism

“I’m literally for the first time ever, after having babies, taking care of my health to the highest level and I’ve never felt better and I look incredible. I feel great,” she told Entertainment Tonight in an interview on Wednesday. 

“And that’s when people attack me.”

The Grammy winner and mother of two highlighted that prioritising her health is rewarding, despite the negativity. 

She acknowledged that despite what she looks like, with more or less weight, her body has remained the subject of public scrutiny. 

“I have to find a way to not be affected by that,” she said.

Health and weight loss journey 

The 31-year-old has always been transparent about her weight loss transformation. In March, she revealed the steps she had taken to achieve her new look, which involved taking the Type-2 diabetes medication Mounjaro as a weight loss drug. 

“I’ve worked with a dietician, made huge lifestyle changes, started exercising with a trainer, and yes, I used science and support (shoutout to Mounjaro!) to help me after my 2nd pregnancy,” she wrote on Instagram at the time, emphasising how these steps were part of her health and wellness journey. 

“And I’m so glad I did,” she added, “because I feel great.”

In addition to the GLP-1 medication, Meghan has also been transparent about the cosmetic procedures she has undergone. 

“I got my dream boobs and they are gorgeous,” she told E! News in March. “I had two babies, I pumped everything out of me and then I lost a bunch of weight, and my boobs were like ‘we’re not boobs,’ you know?”

She emphasised her contentment with her choice, continuing: “I was like, ‘I’m going to get some new ones,’ and that was my dream.”
