Amy Schumer reveals why she deleted her pre-weight loss photos on Instagram

Amy Schumer shut down the narrative that she deleted all of her pre-weight loss photos on Instagram because she didn’t like how she looked.

Fans noticed that the comedian, 44, wiped her entire Instagram except for one carousel of herself in a red minidress and a pair of black Chanel heels — showing off her slimmed-down figure — on Tuesday. In a follow-up post on Wednesday, Schumer addressed the speculation directly.

“I’m proud of how I’ve looked always,” she wrote. “I have been working to be pain free and I finally am. My endometriosis is better. My back is healing. I no longer have Cushing syndrome so my face went back to normal.”

“I am grateful to be strong and healthy especially for my son,” she added. “But your Instagram is not your identity it’s a curation of what you want the world to see and I feel great strong and beautiful and it’s been fun sharing that.”

Schumer insisted she didn’t purposely “go on a weight loss journey,” and that her main focus has always been on her health.

“I’m sure my weight will always fluctuate,” she said. “I’m a perimenopausal woman on hrt meds. Wishing you strength and self love on whatever path you’re on as long as it’s kind and respectful to all people. No matter their weight race or religion peace!”

Seemingly proving her point, Schumer later posted a comically unflattering photo of herself in the hospital with no makeup and messy hair.

The “Trainwreck” star has been open about using weight-loss drugs to improve her health.

Earlier this year, she admitted during her appearance on the “Howard Stern Show” that she tried Ozempic almost three years ago, but it made her horribly sick. She then switched to Mounjaro and lost 35 pounds without any negative side effects.

“My hair is fuller, my skin is better, I have more energy. I want to ‘get down’ more, if you know what I mean,” she shared on Instagram in March. “I’m talking about sex. So, yeah, that’s been great. Mounjaro’s been great.”

Schumer has been married to chef Chris Fischer since 2018, and they share a 6-year-old son, Gene.

Back in February, the “I Feel Pretty” star got candid about her and 45-year-old Fischer’s marriage, including that they had to schedule sex.

“We do birthdays … we do schedule it, we do schedule it,” she confessed during her appearance on “The View.”

“Nobody ever is like, ‘Oh!’ There’s never like, a vibe where it just happens,” she continued. “Do people do that?”
