You’re not “greedy.” You’re tired. You want to eat with your family, not nibble lettuce while everyone is tearing swallow and soup. You’ve tried quitting Nigerian food and still ended up raiding the pot at 11 p.m. You don’t need exile—you need a strategy that works with your culture.
The problem – why you’re stuck
You’re counting swallow but ignoring the oil hiding in the soup. You pick soup by taste, not by energy density (oil and seed-heavy soups are sneaky). Plates are carb-only: big eba, little protein, almost no veggies → crash hunger later. “All-or-nothing” rules backfire. You...

About Me
My name is Juliet and I’m a mom, businesswoman, blogger, aspiring baker and Vincent’s lifetime girl! As a passionate weight ‘loss enthusiast’, I help people overcome their weight challenges by providing motivation, meal plans, recipes, exercise plans, tips and tricks simply because I’ve been there.
I believe in life- in all its beauty, dangers, worries, fun, pains, work (O yes!) excitement, happiness. I know that within each one of us is a burning desire to share, to do good, to work, to find meaning, to enhance that which we perceive to be oh so not good about us.
Weight challenges are an individual thing. Beauty issues are in the eyes of the beholder (my take!). But then, there’s a common denominator in all our problems: they won’t go away on their own.
There’s no one size fits all remedy for life’s problems. At khyra my aim is to provide you with the motivation, info, tools, time and community of like minds to help on your journey to a fit, graceful and trendy you.
I’ll be sharing home grown, weight loss, beauty and fitness ideas that help the modern woman (and our men!) shed excess kilograms, keep the weight off, live healthy vibrant lives, enjoying themselves and being at their most beautiful and productive best
