DJ Khaled Shows Off His Weight-Loss Transformation: ‘I’m Just Getting Started’

DJ Khaled is feeling proud of the progress he’s making on his weight loss journey. On Wednesday, Feb 18, the 50-year-old record producer posted before-and-after photos of his physical transformation on Instagram, telling his followers that he still has more improvements to make with his weight loss.

You either win with us or you watch us win,” he wrote in the caption. “I’m just getting started.“

The “Wild Thoughts” hitmaker also posted on his Instagram Stories a clip of him on the golf course, sharing that he achieved his weight loss by golfing and increasing his daily step count to 15,000.

“Walk and golf,” he wrote. “I want the weight off and it’s coming off!”
“I’m about to show up to greatness,” he said in another clip. “And once you show up, you gotta put in that work. It’s 10-15,000 steps a day, just like I said. I’ve been doing 15-20 a day, but as long as you get to 10-15, you’re starting off your day incredibly. And everything after that is a bonus. Remember that!”

Khaled said he starts his day with a workout before eating a healthy lunch. He boasted that he’s so committed, he often gets in a second workout throughout the day.

“While you’re hugging your pillow, I’m out here walking and golfing,” the Grammy winner said.

“You gotta understand, I want it off…and it’s coming off,” he added, rubbing his hand down his stomach. “Don’t act like you don’t see it coming off.”

DJ Khaled, born Khaled Mohammed Khaled, recently appeared in a Super Bowl commercial for the Wegovy weight-loss pill.

In a statement, he said, “I know what it’s like to go hard in the gym, eat clean, stay disciplined – put in that work every single day, but still not see the results you want. I knew I wanted to work with Novo Nordisk because I’m a father, I’m a husband, and I want to be the best for my family. When you’re trying to reach your goals and you’re looking for something more, having an option like Wegovy pill – that’s powerful.”

Khaled previously opened up to PEOPLE in May 2023 about his weight loss journey and how important establishing a healthy daily routine was for him. He said incorporating golf allowed him to lose 15 lbs. quickly, so he continued it.

“Some people go to yoga, some people go to the gym. And I love everybody’s choices,” he said. “Because I’ve been to yoga, I’ve been to the gym, but I play golf and it’s been working for me. I love the game and I love what it’s doing for me to move my body. I’m more flexible. That wasn’t even me going into golf thinking I’m trying to get rid of weight. It naturally happened.”
