Lerato Kganyago Not Bothered By Her Body Weight Anymore

In a world where women battle with issues of weight and try everything to be ‘body perfect’,  media personality Lerato Kganyago, beg to differ. Lerato has had problems with her weight over the past years, but now she is over that and is happily  embracing her African body. She has accepted that like most of us her body isn’t perfect and has learnt to live with it.

In an interview on The Fresh Breakfast, she revealed that like many young girls she had a problem with her body. “Initially in my 20s, I think mid-20s I started taking medication to pick up more weight because I was really really skinny, and I wanted to have hips and a little bit of a behind. And it wasn’t happening. Then in my late 20, I started picking up weight and I was happy but then I started picking up too much weight, then I wasn’t happy,”she said.

In June last year, Lerato did a cover shoot with True Love magazine where her photos were photo-shopped. She said this made her uncomfortable as it did not represent her as the curvier woman she is today. Lerato says now she is comfortable with the fact that she not the skinny Lerato anymore, she has cellulite,  and that is okay.  You are beautiful nonetheless Lerato!
