Serena Williams, who was once celebrated for her curves has now embraced newly trim figure.

The Wimbledon legend retired from tennis in 2022, but has maintained a fit and healthy lifestyle through exercise alongside a well-curated diet. 

However, after giving birth to two children, the sporting champ noticed a struggle in being able to keep her weight down. 

‘I never was able to get to the weight I needed to be no matter what I did, no matter how much I trained,’ Serena explained. 

She added to People magazine: ‘It was crazy because I’d never been in a place like that in my life where I worked so hard, ate so healthy and could never get down to where I needed to be at.’ 

Serena, 43, insisted that while she’s never taken ‘shortcuts’ in her career, she felt the use of a GLP-1 treatment was the solution.

‘It was very frustrating to do all the same things and never be able to change that number on the scale or the way my body looked,’ Serena added.
