Unathi’s amazing transformation

Unathi

Unathi Nkayi’s weight loss journey has been one of the most inspirational transformations we have seen, the star who is turning 40 in a couple of months looks better than she has ever looked.

A few months ago, Unathi revealed that she and her husband at the time, Thomas Msengana were separated and since then, she has been getting hotter and hotter. The Show Me Love presenter was recently announced as the Women’s Health cover star for October and we are in awe of her body.

The star has been very vocal about her weightloss journey, in an interview with Anele Mdoda, the media personality got candid about how she keeps herself motivated, “when I first started going to the gym, I bought myself clothes that I wanted to fit into, the ‘when I am thin clothes’. In 2011 when I just gave birth, I literally went to New York on a huge shopping spree of underwear and clothes and then I said, these are my ‘when I am thin clothes’ and after that, it started going slowly,” she explained. 

In honour of her cover, take a look at some of the pictures that are proof that she deserves to be on the cover:
