Mo’nique just hit a major weight loss milestone — she’s under 200 lbs. for the first time in over 33 years.
The comedian and actress shared videos and photos of her accomplishment on Instagram on Thursday.
“I said that I would share this journey with y’all, the weight loss and getting healthy,” Mo’nique said in a video. “And today when I got on the scale, since I was 17 years old, I’ve been over 200 lbs. Today was the first time in my adult life that I’ve been under 200 lbs. So I wanted to let y’all know it’s possible, we can do it and we can get there.”
The Academy Award-winning star said that she lost the weight without relying on gimmicks.
“For me it was with no surgery, no pre-packaged foods, not listening to no spokespeople saying ‘it’s easy, you can do it.’ It was just putting in the work and not giving up on me,” she said.
