THE GOOD LOSS; 'LEPACIOUS' BOSE'S WEIGHT LOSS JOURNEY



Comedienne/actress, and now motivational speaker, Lepacious Bose, has been on this journey of shedding weight for a couple of years now. She has successfully cut down from size 32 to 14 and is still on her way to 12! See how easy that last statement is; but Bose makes us understand it isn't.
She lives off her journey on her Instagram page, carrying her followers along on her path to her dream size and sharing major tips on the journey. She believes anybody can be and do anything. Some of her posts and write-ups, below:

''Once upon a time, there lived a lonely sad princess hidden in a big bag! The bag was pretty and colourful but the little girl desperately wanted to come out and play. You see Everytime she tried to come out and play the bag would always be an hindrance and this made her so sad. Eventually she stopped trying and accepted her fate, the bag was happy she gave up and just grew bigger! The little girl named the bag BIG BOLD AND SASSY! 
Then one day, she realised she could fight against this sassy big bag and win, so she started the fight with all her strength, the bag was much bigger and stronger but this girl was now angry and more determined than ever...... O thou my Big, Bold and Sazzy bag, you were once a master to a kind spirited and lovely girl. You ruled and controlled every bit of me mercilessly, but today, the hunter has become the hunted. Your Kingdom has been shattered, your staff of office seized, you had me chained and imprisoned in my own dungeon of fear, terror, self condemnation and lack of confidence. Today, the little girl has sprang forth, blooming like the sun flower, shinning like a star, yet striking like the lighting. Most importantly, Big, Bold and Sazzy has been humbled; and in its place SLIM, BOLD,BEAUTIFUL AND SASSY evolved.

''I really hope you guys can see the difference. The first time I wore that dress was sometime last year at the Miss curvy beauty pageant, I was a size 18/20, so got a tailor to slim it down to size 14, walahi the fabric she cut out was enough to make another dress lol. But here I am, rocking this body and loving it. Daily I dream of getting to size 12, it's getting harder and more scary but I know I will get there. When I hit that target heeeeyyyyyy henhen I don't know what I will do yet lol. 
I have come a long way from size 32, and am super grateful, who am I Lord that you are so MINDFUL of me, everything about me interests you Jehovah and am so amazed and your love. Indeed when God speaks, EVERYTHING hears, even our body.

''Despite all the success of this weightloss believe it or not, I have my low moments too; I am not bionic woman I am scared too. So yesterday I stood in front of the full length mirror and I felt bloated, all I could see was FAT! I have a dress target for August, tried the dress on but the zipper would not close and its 27th already! In frustration tears dripped down my eyes and I was glad I was in the house alone, because how do you explain that after going from size 32 to 14, after being absolutely insanely happy just yesterday Friday I woke up depressed because of the same weight that made me happy? No one will understand how come "I went to bed on top of the world, and in the morning the world is on top of me"
So i just decided to ditch the waist trainers, the girdles etc and just be free and remind my body who is the boss!!!
Who is in charge! It's time to remind myself where I am coming from! It's a beautiful feeling to know I don't have to "pack" Everytime I step out. In the first picture I was "fully packed" lol I could hardly breath from the tightness of the body magic lol.....fast forward to the second picture, that was all ME yesterday! No waist cinchers, no girdles, nothing!!! And it felt awesome Lwkmd! !!! Yes indeed I have come a long way.....still many rivers to cross, many demons to slay....but then am.... #toolegittoquit

And even without the kiss of the prince or the touch of the fiery godmother, the ugly duckling became the princess, the Cinderella story unfolds, of a truth all things are possible to those who believe, do you believe you can too? Then you can achieve.'' 


''On the set of seriously speaking.....and really seriously speaking I went on set with my food basket. Lol.....
You see when it comes to weightloss you can't afford to do shakara! You can't be forming diva! You must prep and pack your meals every single day. The basket does not have to be classy or expensive, any basket will do, it is what is inside the basket that matters not the glamour of the look, although if you can afford a classy beautiful basket then by all means get it, the most important thing is to.....NEVER leave the house without knowing specifically what you are going to eat and drink all day. You see on this amazing journey failing to plan is planing to fail period!!!
If you don't have healthy stuff around you, you will eat only what you see. 
CONTENTS OF YOUR BASKET! 
1. FLASK OF DETOX WATER
2. INFUSED WATER BOTTLE 
3. PROTEIN SHAKE OR SMOOTHIE FOR MEAL REPLACEMENT 
4. YOUR SNACK
5. YOUR LUNCH
6. FLASK OF GREEN TEA
7. YOUR SUPPLEMENTS 
8. SUGAR FREE GUM TO HELP WITH HUNGER PANGS
9. NUTS
10 ACV + WATER MIX 
11. ANYTHING YOU KNOW WILL HELP YOU THROUGH THE DAY.
It doesn’t matter what people say, a nursing mother does not care about people's opinion, she packs everything her baby will need for the day out because she wants to take care of the baby as best as she can. On this journey you are THE BABY, SO PLAN FOR THE BABY. Good morning!

''Focus on your result; think of when your dreams would have become reality; think of when your prayers would have been answered by God; think of when your greatness would have become reality. Think of how you will look dress and behave when the weight melts off. Don't think thoughts that discourage and disempower you. Think right! Channel your thoughts! I love the way Apostle Paul said it in the message bible, Philippians 4: 8-9, he said..... Summing it all up, friends, I'd say you'll do best by filling your minds and meditating on things true, noble, reputable, authentic, compelling, gracious—the best, not the worst; the beautiful, not the ugly; things to praise, not things to curse. Put into practice what you learned from me, what you heard and saw and realized. Do that, and God, who makes everything work together, will work you into his most excellent harmonies.
I choose to fill my mind with productive and profitable thoughts, healthy and wealthy thoughts. I am shaping my destiny with my thoughts and connecting my thoughts with my words and ultimately my life is coming together and the lines are falling for me in pleasant places! What about you?

''Being overweight does not necessarily equal unhealthy.
There are actually plenty of overweight people who are in excellent health.
Conversely, many "normal" weight people have the metabolic problems associated with obesity.
That’s because the fat under the skin is actually not that big of a problem (at least not from a health standpoint, it’s more of a cosmetic problem).
It’s the fat in the abdominal cavity, the belly fat, that causes the biggest issues.
If you have a lot of excess fat around your waistline, even if you’re not very heavy, then you should take some steps to get rid of it.
Belly fat is usually estimated by measuring the circumference around your waist. This can easily be done at home with a simple tape measure.
Anything above 40 inches (102 cm) in men and 35 inches (88 cm) in women, is known as abdominal obesity.
There are actually a few proven strategies that have been shown to target the fat in the belly area more than other areas of the body.
1. Don’t eat sugar and avoid sugar-sweetened drinks
sugar is the KILLER!
Studies show that it has uniquely harmful effects on metabolic health, Sugar is half glucose, half fructose, and fructose can only be metabolized by the liver in any significant amount.
When you eat a lot of refined sugar, the liver gets overloaded with fructose, and is forced to turn it all into fat.
Numerous studies have shown that excess sugar, mostly due to the large amounts of fructose, can lead to increased accumulation of fat in the belly.
Some believe that this is the primary mechanism behind sugar’s harmful effects on health. It increases belly fat and liver fat, which leads to insulin resistance and a host of metabolic problems.
Liquid sugar is even worse in this regard. You see liquid calories don’t get “registered” by the brain in the same way as solid calories, so when you drink sugar-sweetened beverages, you end up consuming more calories without realising it.
Studies show that sugar-sweetened beverages are linked to a 60% increased risk of obesity in children, per each daily serving. OMG!!!!!!!
Make a decision to minimize the amount of sugar in your diet, and consider completely eliminating sugary drinks. #weightloss''


''Hello, 
Do you know?
1. Any food you consume after 8 p.m is practically poison to your body?
2. If you can follow the water therapy for 3 months
religiously, your skin, your body and your organs begins to
function well?
3. Do you know Breakfast is the most important meal of the
day; If you must skip any meal, it shouldn't be breakfast?
4. Do you know too much red meat is very dangerous to
your health?
5. Do you know people who smile always live longer, look
younger and are more healthier than people who do not?
6. Listen: You can use the most expensive cream on your body;
you can take the best care of your body, but HONEY with
BANANA can make your skin glow, make it look good and
make people ask you the kind of cream you are using.
7. For every bottle of soft drink you consume, you have taken 9cubes of sugar, and it takes about 7 days for it to flush out of your body; and it even men increases the likelihood of having a heart attack by 20 percent.
8. Fried meat is a killer; It is damaging your body, when you have to eat meat, grill, roast, steam or air fry them.
9. People who do not take breakfast are going to have a low metabolism. 
10. Drinking water only when you are thirsty is obtaining a
license to damage your liver. You must drink a liter for ever 30kg
11. Holding your urine when you are supposed to let go is another way you are damaging your liver? Your liver is very important for weightloss, if it is full of toxins you can not achieve proper weightloss results.
12. Adding salt into your food when it is already served is another way of slowly poisoning yourself and vital organs? It also slows down your weight loss. 
13. Observing the routine of proper eating:
Eat BREAKFAST like a KING,
LUNCH like a PRINCE and
DINNER like a BEGGAR
would help you live longer.
Stay Blessed and have a glorious Sunday.''
