LOS ANGELES. — Serena Williams slipped into some silky lingerie in her latest Instagram post.
The tennis star looked happy and slender in the skimpy baby blue lace-trimmed outfit that made the most of her slender legs.
“Dressed to the nines… and on cloud nine. In satin swimwear of course,” wrote the mother of two in her Instagram caption. This comes a month after she shocked her fans when she revealed that she has lost 31lbs with the aid of a weight-loss medication, GLP-1.
Williams shared that she took GLP-1 because she needed the help; she had tried to lose the weight on her own but couldn’t.
“As an athlete and as someone that has done everything, I just couldn’t get my weight to where I needed to be at a healthy place, and believe me I don’t take shortcuts. I do everything but shortcuts,” Williams said on Today.
After Olympia was born in 2017, she worked out for hours to shed the weight but her weight refused to go down.
“I literally was playing a professional sport, and I could never go back to where I needed to be for my health, for my healthy weight, no matter what I did,’ she said. ‘I would always lose a lot of weight, and then I would stay.
“No matter what I did, I couldn’t go lower than that one number.”
On Thursday, she kicked off a campaign with Ro, a company that prescribes GLP-1 medications through telehealth; she wants to show that taking the medication is not just an ‘easy way out.’ Her husband, Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian, is an investor in Ro and serves on its board.
Also on Thursday the star dropped three new images to Instagram where she was in a bright yellow swimsuit while in the water.
The beauty struck fun poses as she oozed body confidence and flashed a winning smile while wearing black sunglasses and a scarf around her neck.
‘Melanin mellow-yellow,’ she wrote in her caption as her 18M fans went wild for her new look. – Mailonline
