Media personality Sol Phenduka has embarked on a weight loss journey.
The Kaya 959 and Podcast & Chill host recently revealed his new journey on his social media accounts. He claimed to have made the announcement, so people won’t think he is battling with an illness.
“About to embark on this weight loss journey again. In five months, please don’t I am sick (ningathi ngiyasika). It’s deliberate.’’ he wrote on his Instagram timeline.

“I’m actually very very heavy. Even people who look more rotund than me way less. Here I weighed 110kg … Naturally I’m heavy. So I always weigh heavier than I look. Even when slimmer.”
Sol gave an update on Wednesday, where he revealed he went from weighing 147kg on March 14 to 142kg.
147kg last week (14th March ) ………. 142kg today .

Sol says he wants to live longer for his daughter’s sake by pursuing a healthy lifestyle.
“I don’t feel insecure. Being overly obese is unhealthy. I have a four-year-old daughter. I don’t want to die because of lifestyle choices and things I can avoid. I need at least 30 more years on this earth . This body is the only one I have. Health is wealth.”
