Amy Schumer is setting the record straight on why she got rid of all her old photos on Instagram!
Fans noticed this week that the 44-year-old comedian wiped her entire account — all except for one new picture of herself showing off her sculpted physique in a red mini dress. Yeah, that means her snaps from before she debuted her new figure post-weight loss are gone now. Wow. Kinda feels to a lot of fans like she wants to erase THAT Amy, huh?

The comic apparently knew this move would catch people’s attention as she made sure to address it in the caption, writing:
“I actually left my house tonight. Who’s proud? I’m feeling good and happy. Deleted my old pics for no reason!”

Hmm. “No reason”? For real? That’s what she says. But she wasn’t done.
Later on, the Trainwreck star specifically responded to speculation she was removing the pics from before her transformation over the past year. She returned to Instagram on Wednesday with another post to say:
“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.”
As she should! Amy shared that she has “been working to be pain free,” and “finally” achieved her goals:
“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.”
That’s incredible! Good for her! But what about the feed? Well, Amy went on to remind everyone that “Instagram is not your identity,” adding:
“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.”
The Life & Beth alum also clarified her weight loss journey was not even intentional, saying:
“I didn’t purposely go on a ‘weight loss journey’ that’s a fine thing to go on. But my focus has been on health. I’m sure my weight will always fluctuate. 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!”
We guess Amy just needed a social media cleanse? And it had nothing to do with not wanting to see less… healthy pics? Ch-ch-check out the post (below):
To possibly prove her point, Amy then shared a picture of herself in the hospital with no makeup and messy hair. See (below):
Ha!
