DJ Khaled has dropped around 90 pounds (40 kilograms) since embarking on his weight-loss journey.
In an interview for People published on Thursday, the rapper-producer recalled how he was forced to reconsider his lifestyle after he couldn't get back up from his knees during a stage performance in October 2025.
Two friends also voiced their concerns about the way he was "breathing hard" during the show.
"I said, 'Alright, hold up... I gotta step my game up. I gotta get my mind right. We can't have this,'" he remembered.
Soon after, Khaled - real name Khaled Mohammed Khaled - spoke to his doctor about using a GLP-1 medication, and they decided to try Wegovy.
Over the course of a year, the All I Do Is Win star has shed 90 pounds and is able to maintain a weight between 200 and 212 pounds (90-96 kilograms).
"I would love to get to 200 pounds," the 50-year-old shared. "I'm just way healthier. I've got more energy. I'm more motivated to do everything. I wasn't saying all that when I was bigger. Of course, I was happy - my doctor always told me I was a Rolls-Royce with junk in the trunk. And now, he's saying, 'You need to be studied, that's how healthy you are.'"
Elsewhere in the conversation, Khaled revealed that he has taken up golf and always walks the course rather than taking a golf cart.
"I get over 10,000 steps a day," he smiled. "It is an incredible workout."
