Lillian Ng’ang’a Opens Up About Being Body-Shamed By Family

Lillian Ng’ang’a, the former First Lady of Machakos County, has shared a personal experience of being body-shamed by her own family members and friends. In a recent Instagram post, Ng’ang’a recounted an encounter with family friends during a trip upcountry, where she was bluntly asked about her weight gain.

Ng’ang’a, who gave birth to her first child a year ago, expressed her dismay at the lack of sensitivity from her family members, who seemed oblivious to the challenges of postpartum weight loss. She jokingly questioned whether the concept of body positivity had yet to reach her village.

Lillian Ng’ang’a’s experience highlights the pervasiveness of body-shaming and the impact it can have on women, especially those struggling with postpartum weight gain. It is important to remember that every woman’s body is different, and weight loss should be approached in a healthy and sustainable manner, rather than under pressure from societal expectations.

Ng’ang’a’s journey to self-acceptance and body positivity is an inspiration to women everywhere. Her openness and honesty about her experiences can help others navigate the challenges of body image and promote a more accepting and supportive environment for all women.
