Popular actor turned YouTuber Abel Mutua recently took to Instagram to share his remarkable weight loss journey.
In a heartfelt post, Mutua revealed that a humorous incident involving a friend's child mistaking him for the former Kiambu governor, Ferdinand Waititu, served as a wake-up call for him to prioritize his health and embark on a transformation journey.
''Wueh!!! Wadau I knew things were thick when I met a friend of mine with her little son. Then she asked her son if he know who I was and without hesitation, the boy shouted Gavana Waititu! 🤣🤣🤣. That’s when I knew I had to do something.'' Abel captioned the post.
The post, accompanied by a series of progress pictures, showed Mutua's commitment and determination over a span of twelve weeks. In his caption, he expressed his gratitude to three individuals who played a significant role in his success.
He thanked his partner, Judy Nyawira, for being his dedicated gym companion and providing unwavering support. Mutua humorously admitted that without her, he might have given up by the third week.
''Thanks love @judynyawira for being the best gym partner. Kama si Wewe ningewachia week 3. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣''
He also acknowledged the invaluable contribution of his personal trainer, Muiruri Karanja, from Active Gym and Fitness, for pushing him to his limits and ensuring he stayed on track. Mutua encouraged his followers to seek out Muiruri's expertise for their fitness journeys.
Additionally, he expressed gratitude to Njeri Wa Gitau, a meal plan expert all the way from Bidenland, for her guidance in designing a nutritious diet that complemented his workout routine. He playfully mentioned his occasional late-night snacking on the shakes she provided.
''Thank you so much @muiruri_s_karanja for pushing me at the gym pale @activegymxfitness . Guys, if you need a personal trainer please holla at this gentleman.''
The post garnered significant attention and support from Mutua's fellow celebrities and fans.
Fellow actress Kate Actress humorously welcomed him to "Karibu unyonyeshe taifa frame 1 😂😂 Good job ndugu 🥹" in the first progress picture.
Comedian Njugush lightheartedly speculated on how Mutua's weight loss post could potentially lower the cost of flour. ''Sasa hii itapunguza aje bei ya unga honestly...😢😢😢''
Other celebrities, such as Jacky Vike, Pika_na_Raych, and Wangari Njogu, joined in the conversation, applauding his achievements and sharing light-hearted comments.
Abel Mutua's inspiring transformation serves as a source of motivation for many individuals struggling with weight loss. He joins the band wagon of celebrities like Willis Raburu, Maureen Kunga, Yvette Obura and Maureen Waititu previously headlining with their inspiring weight lose journeys.
His dedication and the support he received from his gym partner, personal trainer, and meal plan expert exemplify the importance of a strong support system in achieving fitness goals.
Mutua's post not only celebrates his personal triumph but also encourages others to embark on their own journeys towards a healthier lifestyle.
''Lastly nataka tu kukumbusha akina mama ya kwamba mtapata taabu sana December. Ni hayo tu kwa Sasa'' Abel Mutua.
