AceShowbiz - Actress Raven-Symone was determined to slim down so she could be in the "best health possible" to enjoy a long life with her new wife.
The "That's So Raven" star wed Miranda Pearman-Maday last summer (2020) and in May 2021, she revealed the results of a recent health kick, which had helped her shed 28 pounds (12.7 kilograms).
She subsequently credited 14-hour fasts and a low-carbohydrate diet for her new look, and admits her lifestyle change was all to avoid an untimely death.
Raven told E! News, "This was because we [she and Miranda] want to have a life together. She doesn't want to take me to an early grave and I want to make sure I am there for her in the best health possible."
The actress first shared her incredible weight loss news in a video posted on Instagram in late May, but enjoying a long life with Miranda may not be the only driving force behind her healthier approach to food.
In a recent interview, Raven explained the couple was thinking about starting a family together. She said, "I want four kids. I want a big family. I want to be able to make sure that the gatherings at the dinner table and the gatherings at holidays are full of excitement and fun."
As for her method in losing weight, Raven previously told "Good Morning America", "I am low-carb, as much as I can be; I do minimal exercise, and I am an avid faster." She added, "I make sure that I have a minimum 14-hour fast between dinner and breakfast... I drink a lot of water and I drink a lot of electrolytes and I have some bone broth now and then, depending on if it gets difficult."
