Nigerian filmmaker Biodun Stephen has shared details of her weight-loss journey, stating that she lost 22 kg following months of intense work and a total lifestyle change.
The filmmaker revealed that her battle with weight started years ago in a recent Instagram post. She claimed that once she began to notice health problems, everything changed.
“I stepped into the 3 digit weight category in 2010. I paid no mind until small small health challenges began to creep in.
“I realized the weight gain was actually induced by stress. I needed a complete lifestyle change. 6 hours sleep time, understanding my metabolism, a long list of dos and dont.
“By April of 2025 ,I only successfully lost 4kg. I was so disheartened. Then I decided to get help and for 3 month, I quickly shed another 10kg.
“That was all the boost I needed, something to encourage me on this journey. By September, I had successfully lost a total of 14kg. But i was still 12kg away from my goal.
“Even if it was 2 kilo beneath 100kg, I would take it. From September, I took my walking seriously, gave my metabolism 14-16 hours to process my intake, slept 6 hours, took my vitamins religiously and 2 weeks ago after 16 months, I stepped on the scale and I saw 98kg. 22kg lost.
“This is a win for me. The bigger win is to ensure i stay in my 2 digits era till end of year, na den I go kee cow.”
In the end, Biodun Stephen’s inspiring journey proves that determination is the most powerful ingredient in achieving weight loss goals. Staying committed, focused, and resilient through every challenge made her transformation possible. It reminds us all that with unwavering dedication, we too can overcome obstacles and reach our desired destination.”
