Oh My! Check out Mo'Nique's dramatic weight loss...

The 45 year old comedienne and Oscar winning actress has lost so much weight over the last few years, going from almost 300pounds to 215pounds. Mo'Nique says she didn't have surgery just good ol' exercise. Below is what she said on a radio programme recently.
"I tweet every morning, my workouts, because I want women to see - especially us big women - that you don’t have to let them cut you and suck it out, you don't have to let them staple you up, you don't have to let them give you a pill, you don't have to let them put a band around your organs. If you put the work in, baby, I promise you, it comes off."
"I am the best Mo'Nique I've ever been in my life right now. And I still have a ways to go. But I feel amazing.
See her serious workout photos after the cut...

Naaaaa Me no likey, in my opinion she looked better when she was bigger and I think she kind of let the big women down cos she gave them confidence with the Thick Madam sexy thing and all but now she has joined the club of slim fits that's sending mixed messages

Someone who weighs 215 kg cannot look like that. And she definitely did not weigh 300 kg before.

Anonymous said...

I'm soooo happy for her! Cos I've been chubby all my life and constantly watching my diet and trying to work out as much as my job allows, yet I only see a few grams weight loss per month. Until someone told me recently if I loose 4kg per year, by the time I'm 40 I'll have lost 32kg which isn't possible cos I'm just over 80 now and have big bones....
The lesson of the story is that its a gradual process and setting a long term goal is more realistic than planning to loose a lot more within a short time. This is encouraging!

So no more "skinny wen are evil" huh? I'm glad she has realized her size was not healthy or something to joke about. More grease to her elbow.

I like this. Ppl need to understand dat there is nothing like fat and fabulous. Nobody said u shld be skinny and unhealthy but carrying around more fat dan ur bone structure is life threatening. Thank God she has changed her ideology of 'I can't help d way I am, God made me dat way' and embraced healthy living. I'm not skinny, neither am I fat. I'm just healthy and dats all dat matters.
