Mo'Nique
Big girls need love too and, we suppose, the bigger the girl, the more lovin’ required.
Though actress/comedienne Mo’Nique often celebrated the idea of having more “cushin’ for the pushin’” … she recently told blogger Freddy-O about her quest to lose more pounds. In fact, she says she’s lost 40 pounds so far and is down to 220 pounds.
“The sex is better!” said Mo’Nique. “I have so much more energy. I can move around better, and that’s what it’s all about. I want to lose more, so I’ll just keep eating better and exercising, and the weight will come off. It took time to put in on, and it will take time to take if off. It’s still okay to be big, but let’s be big and healthy.”
Point well taken and with three children (3 year old twin boys and a 19 year old) she says she wants to be around long enough to see them all mature into men.
“I had to lose some weight to get healthier because I want to be around for a while. I have twin sons who are 3 and a son who is 19, and I want the opportunity to meet their children.”

Mo went on to say that she has recently moved to Atlanta and is working hard on her new television show that’s set to start taping her new talk show in September. It’s slated to air on BET in October.

Your pics are really good but you are looking so faty as compare to other you really work hard so you can loss your weight.Most importantly, stop surviving on junk food. Unless and until junk food does not vanish from your food chart you cannot lose weight.
