200+ Pound Weight Loss: From Death To Life!

(Photo credit: @monet_reloaded IG)

Brandy, better known as @Monet_Reloaded on Instagram, is a single mother of two who went through a 200+ pound weight loss. Her story is truly an inspiration for anyone, male or female, who wants to lose weight.

She’s not only a consultant for underground & indie music artists and producers, she’s an online fitness and wellness coach who specializes in the Keto Diet. When we heard her story of triumph from a number of her fans, we knew we had to feature her.

“I did yo-yo diets here and there but could never stick to it or take it seriously,” explains Brandy to The Femme Fatale Femme Club. “Plus I told myself “I love the skin I’m in” and tried to embrace my BBW movement. Then September 10, 2014 (a month and a week before my 30th birthday) I had to have an emergency surgery and ended up DYING.”

“I flatlined several times after the surgery in recovery and the reason I was told later was because I was too overweight. That CHANGED MY LIFE.”

“Here I am not even 30 years old and about to die from being FAT, something I could fix. Plus I had been told since 18 years old that I would never be a mother so all of this was the reason I TOOK MY LIFE BACK.”

“From May 2018 until Oct 2018, I got down to 174 with Keto alone and no exercise. October 28, 2018, I had skin removal surgery to
