Serena Williams admitted that she lost weight with the help of medication after giving birth to her children. The tennis star is raising two daughters with her husband Alexis Ohanian. 43-year-old Williams posted hot photos in a bright yellow bikini with a green bandana around her neck, completing the look with black sunglasses.
Melanin is a soft yellow color, – she wrote in the caption to the photo.
Serena has never been shy about sharing photos in a bikini with fans, but she has always worked hard on her figure. She recently told People magazine how she managed to achieve such a slim figure. After the birth of her first child, Olympia, the athlete struggled to lose the weight she gained after giving birth. However, in 2023, Serena gave birth to her daughter Adira, and although she regularly went to the gym, the weight did not go away. Williams made the decision to lose weight with the help of drugs.
“I feel great,” she said of her transformation. — I feel lighter both physically and mentally.
Serena explained why she turned to medication, opening up about the frustration she felt when she couldn’t lose the weight she gained during pregnancy.
I could never get to my goal weight no matter what I did, no matter how much I trained, she said. — It was crazy because I had never been this weight in my life. I worked so hard, I ate so well, and I just couldn’t get to where I wanted to be. I’ve never taken the easy way out of my career and I’ve always worked so hard. I know what it takes to be better, she added. — That’s why it was very frustrating to do the same thing over and over again and not be able to change the number on the scale or the appearance of your body.
