Kandi Burruss is leaving a lot behind. She left Real Housewives of Atlanta in her rearview, and now she’s left behind a few extra pounds, too. And according to the former housewife, she’s feeling much better!
The former RHOA star announced her departure from the show in February. Kandi has been with the franchise for the last 14 seasons. While she loved her time on the show, stepping away has also been good for her mind and body.
Losing weight
One major positive Kandi shared with US Weekly is that she’s lost weight in connection with her partnership with Hydroxycut.
“I’ve lost 10 pounds,” she said. “I’ve had really great energy, which has come in handy because I’m rehearsing a lot lately, and it’s been helping me curb my appetite. Like, no desserts. I haven’t even craved them how I normally do. I’ve cut back on all the junk food I was eating.”
She also shared that she was glad about the weight loss because she admitted to “gaining a lot of weight in the past year,” and at the same time, she decided to leave RHOA.
“I was living my best life,” Kandi shared. “I stopped doing Housewives, so I was like, I can eat good, I can relax, I can travel.” While the good life was fun, Kandi admitted to gaining an extra 20 pounds, and she knew she needed to make a change, thanks to a comment on her husband’s social media.
Now that she’s found motivation, she wants to see how much further she can go. She’s got her sights set on losing 30 pounds. “I would love that,” she admitted. “I haven’t been in my 130s since I was 30. It would be a dream.”
Bringing sexy back
As part of Kandi’s partnership with Hydroxycut, she focused on losing weight on her back. Her campaign #OperationUnBigMyBack is focused on losing weight and getting her back in shape to begin with.
She took to Instagram to share her progress. She took a video in a bright pink backless jumpsuit and showed off her back progress. “Check this out,” she told her followers. “The little back roll I had. It’s ain’t rolling no more. So it’s working!”
She finished by saying that she still had a way to go, but she was thrilled about her progress and wanted to share an update.
