For Nollywood veteran actress, Bimbo Akintola,
having a fantastic weight is equal to having a great career. In a recent
interview with SUNDAY PUNCH, the actress who now sports a trim look revealed
why she is a gym freak.
She
said, “I decided to lose weight based on the experience of a close friend. For
me, weight loss is not about being skinny but living and feeling healthy. I
have been 15kg overweight for the last 15 years and it was time to get rid of
it. People say my fitness regimen is tasking but I say otherwise. I am in the
gym for two hours daily from Monday to Friday. I watch what I eat and I am
still working on my body.”
She
is not particular about any size or beauty. According to the 42-year-old
actress, she just wants to be healthy
“I
don’t have a target size. All I want is to have a certain feeling of lightness.
I am not looking to be a size zero because I can’t be a size zero. People say
I’m doing it so I can be beautiful but it is not about being skinny or being
fat. Being skinny doesn’t make you look better and if you are not careful, you
will look ugly and unhealthy.”
