During the interview, Ronke, whose real name is Ibironke Ojo-Anthony, shared details of her health-driven endeavour, shedding light on the pivotal role her doctor played in her decision.
According to the thespian who was weighing 110 at the time, she went to the UK, and her doctor advised her to reduce her weight to about 75kg.
Not until she started feeling ill and having high blood pressure did she take his advice seriously.
In her words:
“I went to the UK sometime ago, and I have a doctor there. The doctor told me to lose weight. I was 110 kilograms then, and he insisted that shedding weight was crucial.
“At first, I was taken aback by the suggestion, but later, health concerns like high blood pressure prompted me to take his advice earnestly.”
Recounting her journey, Ronke revealed that she ventured into the realm of weight loss by embracing a “Speedy Weight loss” product under her doctor’s supervision.
As the journey progressed, she eventually transitioned to using the “Fat Surrender” product, which she attested had a positive impact on her transformation.
However, the thespian was swift to caution on the careful use of such products, emphasizing the potential health risks if not used judiciously.

Around that time, my weight had decreased to about 82 kilograms from 110. Subsequently, I opted for the ‘Fat Surrender’ product, which is what I use now. She said:
“Presently, my weight hovers between 86 and 87 kilograms.”
