Read excerpts of her interview below
On weight loss & fit being fashionable: I feel
healthier and I love it. I’m in tune with my body. People confuse
feeling healthy with looking the “right” size or having the perfectly
placed curves. Weight loss definitely gives you the latter but the
health advantage of being fit is the ultimate goal. Women are seeking
knowledge; more women are aware of the reasons that healthy living is
important. Being fit is now fashionable. West African women are learning
the importance of moderation.
On self-love & female empowerment: Women need to
appreciate themselves more, love themselves even more. A woman that
loves herself knows that regardless of her skin color, weight or height,
she is beautiful with greatness dwelling in her belly. I loved myself
enough to realize that even though I shouldn’t be judged by my weight,
obesity wasn’t allowing me to perform optimally.
On her 10,000 steps Initiative: 60% of women in the
world struggle with their body image. Most women are preoccupied with
either being too fat or too thin. The goal of my 10,000 steps initiative
is to help as many women as possible realize that everyone is beautiful
in their vessel, and the most important thing is to stay healthy and
fit. We can’t all be skinny, we can’t all be fat, but we can all be
healthy.
