Amy Schumer reveals why she deleted pre-weight-loss posts on Instagram
What's the story
Hollywood actor-comedian Amy Schumer recently deleted all her old Instagram posts, leaving fans speculating about the sudden change. The 44-year-old actor had only one post on her account then, which featured her in a stunning Valentino Red Silk-Wool Heart Mini Dress and Chanel shoes. In the caption, she wrote: "I actually left my house tonight. Who's proud? I'm feeling good and happy. Deleted my old pics for no reason!"

'Didn't delete old photos because they were pre-losing weight'
But once she deleted all her posts, media portals framed it as Schumer trying to erase all her pre-weight-loss posts. Slamming such reports, the comedian posted a goofy picture along with a serious caption: "Hey media outlets I didn't delete my old photos because they were pre me losing weight. That's a narrative you created." "I'm proud of how I've looked always." She revealed she had been working hard to be "pain free" and had finally achieved that.
Social media update
Schumer teased followers before deleting posts
Before the sudden change, Schumer teased her followers on Instagram Stories by sharing a screenshot of her first-ever post. She wrote, "My first ever Insta post. I'm gonna erase them all cause why not?" The move comes after several posts documenting her weight loss journey, which she has been open about. At the time of writing, she has four posts up, including one repost about endometriosis, and how this common issue doesn't have a cure.

The comedian's health struggles
Schumer has been candid about her health challenges, including endometriosis, perimenopause, and, most recently, Cushing syndrome. In January, she told Howard Stern on his SiriusXM show that she had a "horrible experience" with Ozempic. After stopping Ozempic, Schumer started a different treatment plan for her symptoms. She finally saw "great" results with Mounjaro earlier this year.
