Elani Singer Maureen Kunga has opened up on struggling with weight gain post COVID and her decision to seek professional help.
Sharing on social media, Maureen said she realised she was overweight and she decided it was time to take charge of her health.
"Post-Lockdown I have really been struggling to get back to my more active, healthier (and frankly less heavy) self, and I have been hitting a brick wall. The scale and inches were simply NOT moving."
Two months ago, she decided to try the gastric balloon weight loss procedure and so far she has lost 10kgs.
"I sat down with @doc.luda from @nairobibariatric who broke down some things that could be holding me back and explained the solutions that were available to me. We settled for the Gastric Balloon and I got it inserted in February. I am happy to report that the journey has begun and things are moving!! Over 10kgs down, I finally feel like I am in control again!"
Gastric Balloon Weight Loss Procedure involves placing a salinefilled silicone balloon in your stomach. This helps you lose weight by limiting how much you can eat and making you feel fuller faster.
Other celebrities in Kenya who have Undergone the procedure include Jackie Matubia, Kate Actress, Maureen Waititu and Kelvin Kinuthia.
