DJ Khaled has spent years motivating the world with his signature “another one” energy, but his latest transformation is about something bigger than music, business, or another chart-topping collaboration. The Miami-based producer is opening up about a major personal journey: taking control of his health and losing approximately 90 pounds.
In a recent interview, Khaled revealed that he once weighed between 295 and 300 pounds. He now says he weighs somewhere between 200 and 212 pounds, with a goal of reaching 200. The turning point came during a performance in October 2025, when he struggled to stand after kneeling onstage to give thanks. The moment made him realize it was time to make a serious change.
Khaled explained that he had already been working out and trying to improve his eating habits, but eventually decided to speak with his doctor about additional support. He says he has lost 75 pounds while taking the prescription medication Wegovy as part of his personal weight-management journey.
His routine also includes plenty of movement. Khaled has embraced walking, playing 18 holes of golf several times a week, and aiming for more than 10,000 steps a day. He has credited his wife and children with giving him extra motivation, emphasizing that being present and healthy for his family is a major part of the journey.
The transformation is another chapter in a career built around ambition, consistency, and sharing his life with fans. From producing major records to building the We The Best brand, Khaled has always made his larger-than-life personality part of his identity. Now, he’s letting supporters see a more personal side of that mindset.
He is also encouraging anyone considering weight-management medication to speak with a healthcare professional and find out what approach is right for them. His results are personal, and individual experiences can vary.
