Raven Symone unveils 28lb weight loss: ‘Check out the chin’
Raven-Symoné has revealed her new look after losing 28lbs as part of her ‘pounds down journey’.
The That’s So Raven star was stunned by her ‘whole different face’ since beginning her transformation and had the support of wife Miranda Maday. The actor added that she has been fasting as part of the process.
Appearing in an Instagram video with Miranda, Raven shared: ‘Pounds down, pounds down. Check out the chin.
‘You see that chin? If you all watch Raven’s Home literally right now, and then come on this live and see this joint, I got a whole different face going on. It’s a whole pounds down journey.’
‘Just so you guys know I’m 28 pounds down. I lost a shit ton of weight,’ she shared with her Instagram followers.
Her wife, who wed Raven in June last year, added: ‘You’re incredible honey. You’re doing so good.’
The star first became a household name in 2003 having starred in the Disney series as a teenager, going on to land a part in the Cheetah Girls.
She has been open about the body shaming she suffered as a young girl in the public eye as trolls told her she couldn’t handle a Cheetah Girls stage show because of her size.
Raven told Metro.co.uk: ‘I performed for an hour and a half, no lip-syncing, all dancing and singing, at 180lbs. Come for me, I dare you!
‘So that’s how I feel. Yes, I’m a little hardcore when it comes to my body, because it’s been through so much and the reasons I’m the way I am is not because of how stereotypes say it is, it’s because it’s my body, and how I deal with things ends up there.
‘Some people pick their face, I tend to go up and down, and I think that’s normal for females, and normal for a man as well. But we make it such a big deal in this society, it’s ridiculous.’
