Why Kandi Burruss Is So Proud of Her Daughter, Riley’s Incredible Body Transformation | Who Wouldn’t Be?
Kandi Burruss, 42, is a proud mom as she revealed in a post she shared on her Instagram about daughter, Riley‘s incredible transformation!
The Real Housewives of Atlanta star’s 15-year-old daughter, who turns 16 in less than two months, has lost 52 pounds thanks to an intense workout regimen with her trainer, Kory Phillips.
Her excited mama took to her page to share Riley’s amazing weight loss. Riley has been working overtime in the gym, 5 days a week and the results of her work out are staggering.
”I’m so proud of my baby@rileyburruss! Last year (around September I think) Riley decided to get serious about being fit. With the help of her trainer @iamthekingoffitness she’s lost 52lbs!!!! & she did it the right way by working out 5 days a week & watching her calorie intake.
Shout out to her friends @olivervett & @jake.vett who worked out with her & helped her to stick to it. They also lost between 40-50lbs. Y’all just don’t understand how hard it is to grow up in front of the public eye & in front of social media trolls who make negative comments about kids weight.
Luckily Riley has tough skin & doesn’t let it bother her but as her mom it used to piss me off when trolls would make negative comments about her size. Nobody knew she was over 200lbs because my daughter is tall.
She’s 5’9. & to be honest she wouldn’t tell anybody how much she weighed but now she proudly shares it because she wants to motivate other people who are going thru the Weightloss struggle. Riley is still working out 5 days a week. I’m so proud of her dedication.
Now she doesn’t need help to stick to it because she’s got that self discipline that I don’t even have… Riley wants to help other young people get fit & help them thru the challenges she faced. Stay tuned to what my young boss has coming next! #ProudMom ❤❤❤.”
Her trainer also posted up her before and after photos. He says Riley wasn’t always bright-eyed and enthusiastic about working out, but she pushed through!
”52 pounds later and I swear @rileyburruss is a whole new young woman. All of our sessions have not always been good. We’ve went through all the fussing, crying, catching attitudes, and even down to her passing the hell out (????)but still managing to lose over 50 POUNDS. ????????????????????!
I just wanna say Congrats Congrats Congrats on your new body new confidence new opportunities & everything else that’s about to happen in your life. ????????????????????????????????Oh and congrats on being the ONLY youngster at the gym to make the new Result Banner.”
