Nollywood actress Ronke Ojo, popularly known as Ronke Oshodi-Oke, has narrated how she went from 110kg to 87kg within few months.

The 46-year-old recently got fans worried after sharing pictures of her looking rather slim on Instagram.

Speaking in an interview published in Saturday Punch, the Succubus actress said she was on a weight loss journey.

She said her goal is to be 85kg.

“I am 100 per cent fine and okay. But, I am on a weight loss journey for certain reasons. I would soon be 50 years old and I feel this is the appropriate time to lose weight. By the time, I am getting close to 60, I would continue adding weight.

“I had wanted to lose weight for a very long time. I had taken several weight loss pills, teas and different products that help to shed weight but it didn’t work for me. I tried those for more than five years. Then, one day, I saw a product that works for me, and I grabbed the opportunity.

“When I started my weight loss journey, I weighed 110kg. Now, I am 87kg. My goal is 85kg. Once I get there, I would stop,” she said.

She also revealed that she weighed 82kg in December 2020.

“As a matter of fact, I weighed 82kg in December but a lot of people complained that I was getting too thin, so I tried to fatten myself. That is why I am now 87kg. Some years back, my doctor in the United Kingdom told me that my weight was more than my height and when I returned to Nigeria, my doctor here confirmed it.

“I tried to exercise for one month. I was losing weight but with my job schedule, I could not cope with the exercise regimes. It is not easy to religiously exercise, especially since I had not always been a fitness-oriented person. Exercise is excellent if one can be dedicated. I admire actress, Kate Henshaw, in that regard,” she said.
