Mo'Nique’s Oscar-winning performance in 2009’s “Precious” made her a household name in Hollywood, and now she’s using her star power to inspire her fans to lose weight. The 45 year old comedienne spent her career embracing her big girl status, often saying bigger is better, but when her health became a factor, Mo'Nique made the decision to lose the weight. She's not done yet! She wants to get down to180 lbs and I know she will do it. Since her talk show ended she is taking time off to get herself in total shape. and is now encouraging weight loss for those that want to do it and may be facing health challenges too. She stated that she would like to live long enough to see her twin boys become adults and get married.
I have seen many negative comments about her weight loss, and I tell you...I'm on her side! She is not saying that it is right for everyone, but she had to do this for herself and she's feeling good about it. All I can say is "Go Monique!"
I'd like to hear your comments. What is your take on it?
