In order to shed the pounds, Raven-Symon adopted a "low-carb, high-fat" way of eating that she says keeps her satiated in a way that her previous meal plans didn't.
In addition to her new way of eating, the star says that she's been incorporating "lots of fasting" and low-impact exercise into her regular routine.
Raven-Symon says that, in addition to making over her eating habits, she feels like she "finally understand[s] the science of my body and what it needs in order to be at a healthy weight."
The star says that much of her weight loss has come about due to a seismic mental and emotional change. "I call some of my weight 'hate weight,'" she explains, noting that therapy and her happy marriage have helped guide her transformation. "As soon as I stopped hating things around me and my cortisol went down, I was able to not rely on carbs as much and take away all of those things that were really pushing my insulin levels to the point of no return, creating an insulin resistance in me that is very dangerous for future health."
Raven-Symon says she's not letting the number on the scale determine how she feels about her progress.
"I put away that number, I put away that scale," she says. "What I look at is: Am I able to walk up a flight of stairs without huffing and puffing? Am I able to wake up without inflammation in my ankles and my wrists and all of my injuries? Am I able to digest foods without grumblings in my tummy?I'm not trying to hit a goal number, I'm just trying to stay healthy."
