This week ro sat down with Kenya Crooks to talk about losing weight and keeping it off.
Crooks is the self-proclaimed “World’s Weight Loss Expert.” He’s gotten recognition for his talent helping clients drop considerable amounts of weight in short time spans. In addition to his multiple weight loss success cases, he has also gained notoriety for training celebrity clients like super music producer Jazze Pha, celebrity stylist Tameka Foster-Raymond, former “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star Deshawn Snow, Ray Leonard, Jr. (son of Sugar Ray Leonard), Philadelphia Eagles Pro Bowler Levon Kirkland, Playboy playmate Brooke Richards and former Atlanta Braves player Michael Devereaux.
Prior to dedicating his talents to helping people lose weight and keep it off, Kenya experienced a distinguished football career. He played arena football with the Carolina Rhinos, was a record-breaking wide receiver at Clemson University and was ranked as the 13th best receiver in the country at Seneca High School.
What is the key to losing weight and keeping it off?
You have to marry the mind with the mouth. If I can inspire you to believe and accept that you can do the unthinkable, then it becomes possible to lose weight.
What is hardest case you have had?
I haven’t run into the hardest case yet because most people come to me with a humble heart.
What is the challenge to leading a healthy lifestyle?
Teaching people how to lead a healthy lifestyle by showing them how to prepare the right foods, and cook. A lot of times there’s a lack of preparation because we’re doing what’s convenient. We can’t continue to do the same things, and expect a different result — that’s the definition of insanity.
What inspires Kenya Crooks?
My inspiration comes from GOD because I realize that what I have and will accomplish is due to what He is allowing to happen through me.
