Sharon Cuneta is out there becoming an inspiration to all the girlies aiming to cut down some weight—not just for anyone else, but just for themselves.
Recently, the Megastar surprised the public with her good physique, showing off evident weight loss. "For the first time in over 20 years, I was able to shop for clothes again that I actually want to wear," the celebrity wrote in an Instagram post posted on February 28.
Sharon disclosed that she's now back to the small to medium size range, and can freely experiment on her wardrobe. "I went up to a size 24 (!) years ago, and that was when I truly panicked, because my health was suffering. I am now back to size 6-8. A small to medium. And when I tried on clothes for my new wardrobe, I was moved to tears because I still couldn't believe I had finally lost all that ugly extra weight!" she expressed in her post.
Fans were quick to praise the Megastar on her new milestone. But as she said, the journey isn't over just yet. Sharon says there are still some things needed to be done for her desired figure. "Not done yet. Just a few more. I Thank the Lord everyday," she noted.
The Internet reacts to Sharon Cuneta's physique
Sharon isn't the only one proud of her body transformation. Her fans and followers too, are delighted to see Sharon happy about this development. In a report by PEP.ph, some followers were seen continuously praising Sharon—while some are curious about what Sharon did to achieve her body.
Sharon did not shy away from interacting with her followers. She generously answered some inquiries and one commenter implicitly asked if she underwent surgery. The Megastar left a realistic response, saying that every weight loss journey boils down to one's discipline when it comes to food. "You can have all the surgery you want but nothing is gonna work unless you change your eating habits," Sharon wrote.
In a March 2023 interview with Ogie Diaz, Sharon actually talked about her approach to mindful eating. She disclosed training herself to embrace the "kain ibon" technique, instead of subscribing to fad diets.
"Ang ginawa ko, slowly but surely. Ang pinaka-effective sa'kin—kasi iba-iba 'yan sa iba't-ibang tao—kapag ang tiyan mo, nasanay na ganitong kapuno, mahihirapan kang mag-dyeta. [...] Ang nangyayari sa metabolism, nasira. Kapag nag-crash diet ka, ang rebound weight, napakabilis bumalik, tapos doble no’ng nawala mo. So'yun ang laging nangyayari sa'kin noon," she said in the interview.
Another commenter asked Sharon if she had ever tried the controversial drug Ozempic from the U.S. According to UC Davis Health, Ozempic is a weekly injection used as a medication for obesity. Recently, it has also been widely discussed in the U.S. as a weight-loss aid. Sharon directly answered, "Not Ozempic. Heard it makes you look old," Adding to another comment, "Nope never had it."
At present, Sharon is starring in the Dreamscape series, Saving Grace.
