I was watching a recent episode of "The Mo'Nique Show" and happened to catch her in the middle of addressing her fans on her recent 40 Ibs weight loss. Apparentely, her much larger fan base is not happy about her weight loss and feels that the woman who once proclaimed the "fat and fabulous" motto has let them now. According to Mo'Nique, she understands the frustration of her fans, but the weight she was carrying around was way too much, not to mention unhealthy. It was causing too many health complications and if she wanted to be around for a long time she needed to shed some pounds. She even encouraged her fans to follow her example by getting healthy themselves.
Personally, I think Mo'Nique did the right thing by addressing her fans the way she did about their health. We are facing a major health crisis in our country with soaring obesity rates and it's high time North American's (Canadians/Americans) start getting serious about their health. With Mon'Nique being the role model that she is, it's even more important for her to set an example for the millions of women and men alike that look up to her.
