Sophie Ndaba speaks on weight loss despite hurting comments

Sophie Ndaba has come out to speak on comments surrounding her weight loss. She is battling diabetes.

About a year ago, she decided to adopt a healthier lifestyle that has seen her lose weight. With her weight loss, came applause from many people. However, she also became the target of comments and including HIV rumors.

On her Instagram account, Sophie made a post stating she will not let negativity get the better of her. She is proud of her weight loss.

“Some people sadden me because I have lost both my parents through diabetes, I nursed them so I know this killer disease. It’s real. No joke. Our fellow sisters and brothers commit suicide because of pressure of what you negative heartless people think. I stopped worrying what any negative person thinks long ago.”

Although she is used to dealing with negative comments, she still gets hurt by them.

“Just surprised that grown people share such heartless opinions. Where are the families that are praying and fasting for goodness and health. I’m fighting it daily to live for my children and family. God is my biggest partner in this fight then my hubby, friends and family.

Being overweight landed Sophie in hospital.

“I’m an ambassador for those of us suffering from diabetes. And those who are obese but too scared to fight. I will never hide for anyone. Life too precious!”

She has therefore resolved to continue fighting for her children and family.
