Serena offers candid glimpse of her road to fitness recovery
The former tennis player has embarked on a weight loss journey that she has decided to share with her followers.
In the video, Serena begins with an introduction full of hope and gratitude:
“Alright. Here we are again, denim skirt. Let’s see where I’m at. This has been a very long journey. So thank you for joining me on this tough journey.”
With an air of anticipation and a touch of humor, Williams tries on the denim skirt, which she hadn’t worn since the last time she documented her progress. She maintains a positive attitude, although she acknowledges that she still has work to do.
“I haven’t tried it on since last time. So, let’s see what happens here. Let’s say our prayers,” she says in the video while pulling the clothing item over her dusty pink athletic romper. “Don’t get negative if it doesn’t work out.”
Williams gets the skirt up to her waist and notes, “We don’t have that big of a problem anymore, but we still got a little bit of a problem.”
Serena’s sincerity is evident as she admits the challenges she still faces, but also celebrates the progress she has made:
“All right. Well, we’ve made a lot of progress. Look at this. OK. I can almost, yeah, I can actually button it, but you know, I might need to check that in only another few weeks.”
In April 2017, Serena announced her first pregnancy through an image on Snapchat and on September 1, 2017, she gave birth to her first daughter, Alexis Olympia Ohanian Jr. During the 2023 Met Gala, Serena Williams revealed that she was pregnant again. Her second daughter, Adira River Ohanian, was born in August 2023.
Although the skirt is still a bit tight, Williams remains focused and positive on her clear weight loss goal and the denim skirt will be her next accomplice when she wears it to perfection.
