One of the most popular plus size models, blogger Yulia Rybakova became famous for her curvaceous forms. However, despite the success, the star lost 30 kilograms in six months and left the modeling business.

“I got very curious about what I could be. I challenged myself, but will I be able to lose that much weight at all? Will I make it to the finish line or is it all in vain? Despite my popularity, including due to my appearance, I realized that I was overweight and put my health first,”Rybakova said about how she motivated herself to lose 30 kg.

Such emergency weight loss is considered wrong, but Julia approached this issue with all seriousness: she worked through the history of her weight through genetics, tracked who was inclined to be overweight, and paid attention to the emotional state. The model also said that eating on a schedule, stable coaching sessions on oneself: yoga, meditation and a lot of movement played a significant role in losing weight.
“By the way, now on my Instagram I even launched a weight loss course“I’ll lose weight.” One of the girls has already thrown off 5 kilograms according to my program. I hope I can pass my knowledge on to others, too,”Rybakova adds.

Of course, the changes negatively affected the work of the model, because the rounded shapes have already become her hallmark. Major brands abandoned Julia, the opportunity to walk the podium in America in the plus size category has remained a dream.
“I sat and sobbed because I didn't understand if I won’t become Ashley Graham or I won’t be known as Kim Kardashian because of my forms,” says Yulia.
But in the end, the girl preferred her health to popularity, because the excess weight caused problems with the joints, and even interfered in ordinary life. Now Julia is sure that refusals are not the end, but, on the contrary, a new opportunity to reveal oneself. Perhaps losing weight and helping other girls will become the work of her life.
