Liz Woods is opening up about her diet and exercise routine – and showing off her fit figure in workout gear. In a few new social media posts the 90 Day Fiance star unveils her slimmed down figure and offers details about her meal and workout plan. In one of them she reveals she started her weight loss journey on December, 10 2023, going from 170 to 125 pounds. Then, battling cancer and going through chemo, she lost another 17 pounds and went down to 108. How did she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her weight loss.


She Follows the Plan “Religiously”

In the post she reveals she lost 22 pounds in a month by following the plan. “I’ve Done This 4 Week Challenge 3 Times & It Has Worked For Me,” she writes, adding that it was specifically designed for her and her weight and that she “followed it religiously.”

Part of the plan is exercise. “I Did 4 Circuit Training Classes A Week During The Time I Did This Program,” she writes. “You Can Join A Gym And Do Any Group Classes, Workout On Your Own, YouTube, Dance Videos. I Just Started The Better Me App Again.”

Also, Walk

She also made sure to get her steps in. “I Also Do A Min Of 5 Miles A Day,” she writes. This is the equivalent of 10,000 steps. A 2018 study published in the journal Obesity found a link between walking 10,000 steps a day and weight loss and weight management. Other studies published by the Journal of American Medical Association (JAMA) in JAMA Neurology and in JAMA Internal Medicine also linked walking 10,000 steps a day to less dementia and less cardiovascular disease overall, with less heart disease, less heart failure and fewer strokes.

3 Meals and 2 Snacks Per Day

90 Day Fiancé's Liz Woods has lost a bunch of weight and she’s enjoying the fruits of her labor. “Summer ☀️,” she captioned a new photo of herself in a swimsuit. How does she stay so fit? And how can you lose weight responsibly? Read on to see 5 ways Liz Woods stays in shape and the photos that prove they work—and to get beach-ready yourself, don't miss these essential 30 Best-Ever Celebrity Bathing Suit Photos!


1. She Lost Weight

“Goodbye size 5, hello size 3,” she captioned a photo. “To implement a successful dietary intervention, consider:

  • Eliminating high-caloric beverages, such as juices, sodas and alcoholic beverage,; and processed foods, such as potato chips, pastries and candy, which often are the source of unwanted calories. Instead, drink water throughout the day to stay hydrated.
  • Eating smaller portions and incorporating healthy snacks, such as fresh fruit, vegetables and nuts, between meals.
  • Self-monitoring by involving the use of food diaries, activity records and self-weighing. Tracking your efforts is one of the elements of a successful behavioral weight loss program,” says the Mayo Clinic.

2. She Eats Protein, Carbs and Veggies for Meals

Top,View,Of,Lean,Meal,High,Protein,Of,Chicken,BreastShutterstock

“Creating healthy meals starts at the plate. That's why the food pyramid has been replaced with a plate. As you see, half of your plate should be fruits and vegetables, preferably nonstarchy vegetables. Good choices include spinach, carrots, lettuce, cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, tomatoes, cucumbers, beets and peppers. Grains fill another section. Choose brown rice, whole-wheat pasta or whole-wheat tortillas. Protein completes the plate. Healthy options include chicken or turkey without the skin, fish and other seafood, beans, soy, and lean cuts of beef and pork. Round out your meal with an 8-ounce glass of fat-free milk,” says the Mayo Clinic.

3. She Ate Turkey

Small,Meat,Balls,On,A,Green,Plate,,Fresh,Herbs,Thyme,Shutterstock

Liz shared photos of turkey bites. “Finding the perfect turkey can get overwhelming — fast. Laura Jeffers, MEd, RD, LD, recommends you keep an eye out for the following:

  • USDA-certified organic birds are free-range turkeys raised without antibiotics or pesticides.
  • A turkey from a local poultry farmer (non-certified). Ask how it was raised and whether or not it’s been enhanced.
  • Heirloom breeds are a slower-growing turkey with a little more fat marbling, meaning you get a richer flavor and texture.
  • Conventional grocery store turkeys are bred to have more white meat. These birds are confined and they grow fast,” says the Cleveland Clinic.

4. Protein Helps Build Muscle

“The recommended dietary allowance (RDA) for a healthy, non-pregnant adult is 0.8 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight. But let's be clear—the RDA is just the minimum amount you need to meet your baseline nutritional requirements,” says our sister site Eat This, Not That! “So, that's your RDA if you're solely seeking to maintain your current muscle mass. But if you're trying to build muscle, Cedrina Calder (aka FitDoc), MD, preventive medicine doctor, and health expert, suggests heeding the American College of Sports Medicine's guidelines, and consuming between 1.2 to 2.0 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight of protein daily (or about 0.54 to 0.9 grams per pound).”

5. She Hate Three Meals and a Protein-Packed Snack

“Snacking is important way to constantly feed your body with the nutrition it needs every few hours,“ says registered dietitian Kate Patton, MEd, RD, CSSD, LD to the Cleveland Clinic. “When you allow for healthy snacking in addition to your meals, you’ll feel more satisfied and can maintain your energy and blood sugar in a more steady and balanced way throughout the day,” she says. “Just make sure your snacks aren’t too high in calories, bad fats, salt or sugar.”

Anais Zanotti is revealing her go-to routine – in her workout clothes. In a new social media post the health coach shows off her fit figure in a two-piece exercise set while unveiling an efficient workout. “Home VS GYM Glutes and legs 💪🏽,” she wrote in the Instagram caption. “So many of you guys are going on vacation, does not mean you can’t keep your routine in place. I always bring my bands with me wherever I go. Nothing fancy, just some superbands from Amazon.” She also went on to reveal the workout. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care and what exercises are involved in her workout? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.


1. She Once Took the Wrong Approach to Weight Loss

In one of her Instagram posts, Anais reveals that she didn’t always take the right approach to weight loss. “At 26 years old, I was trying to get smaller and thinner, and it was always a battle for me. I was struggling to get toned and was always feeling tired, no energy, weight in the middle, muffin top.Clothes did not fit as good,” she writes, explaining everything she “was doing wrong.” It included working out 6x per week, “long hours of cardio, nonsense workout classes and when I was weight lifting I had no structure in place. Pretty much winging it,” she writes. Her nutrition was also “very poor, from pre-made frozen meals,” and involved skipping breakfast, low carbs, juicing, magic slim shakes, 1200 calorie diets, drinking often during the week, and “poor sleep, high stress due to work.”

2. Now, This Is Her Approach to Exercise

“But now, 42 years old In Perimenopause,” she changed her approach. “Focusing on getting strong, not thriving to be skinny or a number on the scale,” is important to her. She also works out four times a week, “45min max, my cardio is walking essentially and getting above 10k steps per day.”⠀

3. Here Is Her Approach to Diet

She also reset her metabolism “by adding on more muscles and balanced meals,” never skips breakfast, focuses on” eating a protein source for each big meal” and eating “whole food plant based nutrition” with “very little processed food,” and eats “around 2200cal/day,” she says, “to be able to maintain my figure, retain my muscles.”

4. She Also Focuses on Recovery

Rest and recovery is also key. “Focusing on getting my 8 hours of sleep, some days it’s harder than others,” she says. Also, she manages stress “with exercises, walking and meditation.” And, lastly, she takes care of herself. “My self care is a priority,” she writes.

5. Here Is Her Workout

Here is her “quick & effective routine,” she says. She recommends doing 4 sets of each:

  • Glute bridges with loop bands 15x (not on the video)⠀
  • RDL 15x⠀
  • Glutes Kick backs 15x⠀
  • Reverse Lunges 15x each ⠀
  • Sumo Squat 15x⠀

Victoria’s Secret models are considered some of the most gorgeous women on the planet. Over the years several catwalk crawlers have earned their Angel wings and walked the runway of the lingerie company’s annual fashion show. Who are some of the most beloved Victoria’s Secret models of all time and what does it take for them to stay in shape? Celebwell rounded up 12 amazing bodies of former Angels and their top diet and fitness habits.


1. Taylor Hill Loves Her Body

Paris,,France,-,November,30:,Taylor,Hill,Walks,The,RunwayShutterstock

"I used to hate my body, and I thought I was really ugly," Taylor told Byrdie. "I was so not confident, and becoming a model—and especially a VS girl—has changed my perspective on who I am. It's kind of given me a new light: You're beautiful no matter what you look like, no matter what body type you have. I always envied curvy women because I wasn't that. The grass is always greener, and you'll always have to deal with that. But being a model has helped me embrace my body type. It's hard on some girls, but it actually helped me a lot."

2. Taylor Hill Exercises

Paris,,France,-,November,30:,Taylor,Hill,Walks,The,RunwayShutterstock

Taylor mixes up her workouts. “I do mainly light weight-lifting and squats when I’m in the gym. My favorite place is Dogpound in NYC,” Taylor revealed to Harper’s Bazaar about her sweat sessions. “But I also do some yoga, pilates and crossfit. It’s important to switch things up so that your body doesn’t get too used to anything.”

3. Taylor Hill Doesn’t Believe in Diets

“I actually don’t stick to any diets, but I eat everything in moderation. Plus, exercising regularly is very important,” she told Harper’s Bazaar. Hr favorite meals? “When I’m in Paris, I always have Japanese udon. And pizzas in New York. I also love spaghetti, and basically everything when I’m in Italy.”

4. Taylor Hills Reads

In her recent post, Taylor shows off the latest book she is reading. One Harvard study published in Social Science & Medicine found that people who read books regularly had a 20% lower risk of dying over the next 12 years compared with people who weren't readers or who read periodicals.

5. Taylor Hill Works Out with a Personal Trainer

Taylor enlists the help of a personal trainer to achieve her goals. "I have to use a trainer because I cheat in classes," she told Byrdie. "I'm a natural-born cheater. I cheat on everything—I cheated on tests (don't tell my teachers), I cheat workouts, I eat whatever I want! So I just needed someone to watch me and make sure I'm doing it correctly. When I have an hour, I want to give everything I have to that hour, like, really work out.”

6. Sara Sampaio Does Pilates

Paris,,France,-,November,30:,Sara,Sampaio,Walks,The,RunwayShutterstock

Sara likes an amped up version of pilates. “I've been doing a lot of SLT. It’s like a really intense Pilates with a machine. I’ve noticed with my body that small movements have done more for my body than the boot camps. My body moves better when it’s very focused on small movements that elongate your body and your muscles,” she told The Cut. “I tried SLT for the first time five or six years ago when I first got to New York. It was really hard, it was too hard. Then I was training for the Victoria’s Secret show last year and gave it another try. I really liked it, it was not as hard. I think they had changed it a little bit. I could actually go through a whole class without feeling like I was going to break down.”

7. Shanina Shaik Works Out with Personal Trainers

London,,England,-,December,02:,Victoria's,Secret,Model,Shanina,ShaikShutterstock

Shanina relies on personal trainers to keep her in runway model form. “I have a few favorite trainers whom I’ve enjoyed following over some time now, including Melissa Wood, Megan Roup of Sculpt Society, and Shannon Nadj of Hot Pilates. It’s extremely motivating to follow their workouts, even from the comfort of home. I usually gravitate toward workouts that incorporate a lot of Pilates. My favorite moves are making small circles and stretching your legs with ankle bands. Lastly, I like to use a resistance band, pointing your feet and pulsing up and down; it’s great for the inner and outer thighs,” Shanina revealed to Hum Nutrition.

8. Kelsey Merritt Does Two a Days

New,York,,Ny,-,February,05:,Kelsey,Merritt,Attends,TheShutterstock

Kelsey works out not once, but twice a day. "The past few months I've been working out everyday—and sometimes twice a day. This past week I did pilates, if I feel good then I'll do 30 minutes of cardio. I always make sure to put cardio in my workouts. I'll do SoulCycle, then I'll go on the treadmill. I will do strength training with a personal trainer at Dogpound,” she told Elle.

9. Jasmine Tookes Balances Diet with Exercise

New,York,,Ny,-,November,13:,Model,Jasmine,Tookes,WalksShutterstock

Jasmine fuels her workouts with food. “I love to eat tons of food with lots of carbs. I balance it with working out. But generally, I try to be very clean and eat healthy, and always have a lot of protein. I do have a lot of cheat days. I feel like you should be able to eat what you want,” she told The Cut. One of her cheat meals? “I love to have hot wings and French fries,” she said.

10. Hailey Bieber Sticks to A Primarily Plant-Based Diet

Hailey eats as plant-based as possible, because it makes her feel good."I tried a plant-based diet for two months during quarantine," she told Harper's Bazaar. "I felt great and I had a lot of energy, but it was not for me. I don't eat a strictly plant-based diet and I do still eat meat. I just don't eat a lot of it. I've picked up more fish, greens, and lentils." Her diet involves "a lot of vegetables and fish, not much meat, minimal dairy,” she told Byrdie. "I just feel better when I eat that way."

11. Alessandra Ambrosio Allows Herself to Indulge

Paris,,France,-,November,30:,Alessandra,Ambrosio,Walks,The,RunwayShutterstock

Alessandra used to go to extremes to stay in shape, but avoids dieting now. "After having Anja I only had three months to lose all the weight [before doing the 2008 Victoria's Secret show] and I was on this 1,200-calorie-a-day meal-delivery service that I hated. I couldn't do that again," she told The Edit. "Whenever I start to diet, everything goes downhill,” she added. “So if I want a little bite of dark chocolate on a plane or a cocktail with friends on the weekend, I'll have it. In fact, I'll drink a glass of red wine with dinner most nights, and two or three times a week I'll have a cup of tea and a cupcake with Anja, who's as obsessed with red velvet as I am.”

12. Candice Swanepoel Has a “Balanced” Approach to Wellness

London,,England,-,December,02:,Victoria's,Secret,Model,Candice,SwanepoelShutterstock

Candice focuses on upholding a balanced lifestyle. “It’s being happy and healthy. I don’t like restrict myself from certain foods that I want, or kill myself at the gym. It’s really what’s comfortable for my body at the time and what’s best at that moment,” she told The Cut.

13. Kelly Gale Eats Clean and Exercises

Paris,,France,-,November,30:,Kelly,Gale,Walks,The,RunwayShutterstock

Kelly tries to exercise daily. “Usually on my days off, and sometimes before going to set – I end up heading to pilates, boxing or jump rope and when that gets boring, I go rock climbing with friends or find some other activity we can tackle,” she revealed to V Magazine, adding to Grazia that she works out “for a few hours” and does “a lot” of walking. She also eats clean.“My diet generally consists of fresh, organic produce (all veggies, nuts, seafood, occasional eggs and lots of raw vegan dark chocolate) and superfoods everyday such as chlorella and spirulina. If I ever need an immune booster I have tons of ginger, tumeric and baobab,” she said. It “takes a while to get used to healthier foods if you’re used to eating crap, or if you have been brought up eating a certain kind of way,” she admitted. “To me, almost everything clean and healthy taste good and you can always play around and make it taste even better.” Another way she sets herself up for healthy eating success is preparation. “When I’m traveling, I always bring a big variety of healthy snacks and superfoods – usually opting for vegetables and fish or seafood when ordering food or on set.”

14. Izabel Goulart Juices

London,,England,-,December,02:,Victoria's,Secret,Model,Izabel,GoulartShutterstock

Izabel drinks a lot of juices. “The first thing I do in the morning is prepare fresh juice. I have 15 different recipes, which I drink for 15 days consecutively. Then I repeat the recipes from the beginning for the next 15 days of the month. My juices include fruit, vegetables, leafy greens, and even grains. After a workout, I have a protein drink and always keep a protein bar in my bag," she told Vogue.

15. Miranda Kerr Drinks Lemon Water

New,York,,Ny,-,November,09:,Miranda,Kerr,Models,TheShutterstock

Miranda relies on lemon water to keep her digestive system working. “Hot water with lemon to start the day, it's really good and it stimulates the digestive systems,” she told Elle UK. After downing that, she moves on to another trendy beverage. “And then after that I have my cold-pressed green juice every day. And it has like kale, spinach, cucumber, celery.”

16. Doutzen Kroes Dances

New,York,-,November,19:,Victoria's,Secret,Fashion,Show,ModelShutterstock

Doutzen dances her way to a hot body. Her favorite workout is Ballet Beautiful with Mary Helen Bowers, which she takes three times a week. “It keeps everything tight. I’ve worked out with her for two years and I really like the results,” she told Vogue. “I used to always box and run, and with boxing, I would build a lot of muscle. After I had my son [Phyllon, age 3½], I started doing ballet. It makes you long and lean—it’s like the Pilates look.”

Influencer and fitness expert Lauren Fisher shares her fitness journey through intense workouts, meal prepping, and smart recovery techniques. In a recent Instagram post, Fisher donned a sleek two-piece workout set and demonstrated her go-to exercises, offering a glimpse into her dedication to staying fit. Beyond the gym, Fisher emphasizes the importance of giving her body time to recover, meal prepping to stay on track, and even indulging in cheat days to maintain balance. As a frequent traveler, she also ensures to squeeze in quick, effective workouts while on the road. From lifting heavy weights to allowing herself a break, Fisher’s approach is all about sustainability and enjoying the process of staying healthy.


1. She Pushes Herself

Known for her fitness retreats and intense workouts, Fisher showed followers a quick glimpse of a compilation of exercises she does to keep in shape. Wearing short grey shorts and a matching top, Fisher is seen lifting heavy weights, pull-ups, and battle ropes.

2. She Gives Herself Time to Recover

Working hard to achieve fitness and health goals also includes downtime to allow the body to recover, something Fisher recently reminded followers. “Over the years, I’ve realized that recovery is just as important as the workout,” she wrote. “And honestly, when it’s that time of the month, I feel it even more. My energy dips, and my body just feels like slowing down. Instead of pushing through, I’ve learned to listen to my body and give myself a break when I need it. Some days, it’s full rest, or like today, it’s light movement with a run followed by recovery using the @hyperice Venom 2 Back. The heat and vibration provide a lot of relief and help me feel better. It’s a reminder that recovery isn’t slacking off—it’s taking care of yourself so you can show up stronger later. So if you’re feeling off, especially during your period, it’s totally okay to take a step back. 🫶”

3. She Workouts While Traveling

Working out is one of the last things most people want to do while traveling, but Fisher tries to stay on track when she’s jetsetting, she shared in an Instagram post. “Sticking to a modified version of my typical morning routine while on vacation always makes me feel my best while traveling. “

1️⃣ Sunlight exposure (not shown in video, but Ras and I opened our hotel windows to get the morning light right away)

2️⃣ Morning workout & doing what I want right now (this included the GS20 program from Grown Strong. 💪 Comment WORKOUT and I’ll DM you what I did in under 20 minutes)

3️⃣ Don’t forget your greens people ✌️ this can be easy one to let slip… Thankful for the travel packets from @organifi Green Juice (LAURENFISHER saves 20%)

4️⃣ Breakfast of course. I ate after my workout today so was craving a Skyr yogurt bowl. An hour later I had a 2nd breakfast with my normal eggs. Anyone else do 2 breakfasts? 😂

4. She Meal Preps

Lauren Fisher.4Lauren Fisher/Instagram

Fisher meal preps to help ensure she eats a healthy diet. On her blog, she shared why it’s a game-changer for her. “Find one or two days in the week where you can meal prep in bulk. This means you're cooking food that will last 2-4 days ahead of time so you don't have to worry about cooking every day. It's a timesaver and also makes it a lot easier to stay on track.”

5. She Has Cheat Days

Strawberry,,Vanilla,,Chocolate,Ice,Cream,Woth,Waffle,Cone,On,MarbleShutterstock

While Fisher sticks to a healthy diet and fitness routine, she also allows herself to have fun. On her blog, she stated,” DON’T LET PERFECT BE THE ENEMY OF PROGRESS. The world is not going to end if you have a cheat meal once or even twice a week. Heck, I promise enjoying yourself on your birthday or a holiday won’t kill your progress either. For me, I actually have one day a week where I don’t even worry about sticking to my plan and I go out to enjoy a nice dinner with my fiancé and go out for ice cream after. If I was 100% strict all the time, I would not be able to stick with this and it would do more damage than good. Going back to the balance I talked about earlier. So next time your friends invite you out, don't say no because you're nervous about your meal plan.”

Bianca Bustamante is revving up her engine in 2025 – in her workout gear. In a new social media post, the racecar driver reveals she is taking “the next major step” in her physical journey as a race driver “and I’ve set the target high!” she says in a new Instagram post, filled with video clips of herself lifting heavy weights at the gym. “Never been more motivated in my life, it’s not physically easy for a girl in this sport, but I’m super excited to take on this new challenge and the next big step on my racing journey,” she added. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here are her top lifestyle tips.

Lifting Weights

Bianca spends hours at the gym where she focuses on strength training along with endurance, cardio, reaction time, and reflexes. “You know, to be a driver, it’s a complete package. It takes strength. It takes mental fortitude. It takes reflexes, smart thinking, and survival skills,” she told MEGA Active. “Sometimes it's for the body, sometimes it's for the mind. Nothing more peaceful than early sessions,” she captioned an Instagram post of one of her sessions.

Double Down On Training

In her recent post, Bianca reveals that she working extra hard at the gym. “I’ve been working hard over the years to build a solid foundation, but in 2025, I’ll be working with @j_w_90 and I’m doubling down on my training. Increasing to two workouts a day not just on lifts but aerobic endurance, as well as a better focus on nutrition and rest, in order to raise the bar to compete in the higher formulas,” she said.

Fueling Your Body With Protein

Bianca makes sure to eat enough protein in order to build more muscle and stay as lean as possible to meet the weight requirement. “It’s been a really cool journey seeing my body develop and transform into this whole different person I never knew I could become,” she said. In her new post she added that she is meal prepping. “I’m soooo all in that im even learning how to cook & meal prep better than ever before,” she writes.

Taking Cold Plunges

As for recovery, cold plunging is part of Bianca’s training regime. Limited research supports the benefits of cold plunges, which may include easing sore muscles, bringing body temperature down, increasing focus, improving sleep, and decreasing inflammation, per the Cleveland Clinic. However, a 2021 study found that cold water immersion therapy promotes post-sport recovery.

Working On Self-Esteem

Positive self-talk is also important. “Of course, I put a lot of pressure on myself, but in the end, I always tell myself that as long as I give my best and I learn from it, any mistake I make is valid,” Bianca explained. “I always try to repeat that to myself that I am valid. I’m here for a reason and there’s nothing I would rather do than be here.”

How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

Jogging

Brenda enjoys jogging. According to the Mayo Clinic, running is great for cardiovascular health, muscle building, and weight loss. “For every mile run, the average person will burn approximately 100 calories,” they say.

Walking Her Dog

She also takes her dog on long walks. Going for a daily walk can be a game changer, especially at a brisk speed. One study published in JAMA Internal Medicine found that walking at a brisk pace for about 30 minutes a day reduced the risk of heart disease, cancer, dementia, and death, compared with walking a similar number of steps but at a slower pace.

Dancing

You can also find Brenda dancing to burn calories. Dancing is an excellent workout for many reasons. It builds strength and promotes flexibility, helps you lose weight, and even promotes cardiovascular function. A 2016 study published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine determined that people who engaged in moderate-intensity dancing were 46 percent less likely to develop or die from heart disease than non-dancers. In comparison, moderate-intensity walkers were just 25 percent less likely to suffer heart health issues

Swimming

Brenda spends a lot of time in her swimsuit so it isn’t surprising she loves to swim. According to the CDC, swimming is a good way to get regular aerobic physical activity. Just two and a half hours per week of aerobic physical activity, such as swimming, bicycling, or running, can decrease the risk of chronic illnesses. In addition to the many physical benefits, multiple studies support the mental health benefits of swimming.

Hydration

Finally, Brenda hydrates, especially after a long workout or sun exposure. According to the Mayo Clinic, hydration is essential for various reasons. Water helps eliminate waste through urination, perspiration, and bowel movements, keeps your temperature regular, lubricates and cushions joints, and helps protect sensitive tissues.

She Supports Animals

Romani has her own charity, Help Miami Cats. She talked about how she started this in the caption of this Instagram post. “❤️ Guys!!!! I have always loved cats and had many growing up. When I moved to Miami Beach I met a great calico named Chacha and learnt that cats were brought to the city by Mayor Lummus … against rodents. Cats rely on volunteers for their food and water and there’s a huge amount of them. There’s a city program to Spay and neuter with the wonderful @sobecats ladies and the feeding is made official by a City Sanctioned badge, yet new cats keep getting dumped daily sadly and there’s a never ending amount of work, emergencies and so on. I was on a feeding rotation but during the pandemic I was left alone caring for so many as people left town or couldn’t afford feeding anymore …I decided to start my own non profit @helpmiamicats . We feed close to 200 and when Batman got paralyzed took him and other special needs cats under my care … @stevensachs69 with the cat room and the amazing people involved devote their lives to these special souls … My life has changed a lot too … way less spare time, way more sweat and tears and lost the person I had by my side who had sadly other priorities … yet gained so much love from these lovely creatures !!! If you can please get involved in any way … follow @helpmiamicats , share, volunteer, adopt … donate … Only together we can make their world a better place !!! And yes … just me feeding the kitties and talking to them … 🤷🏻♀️👀😆❤️🙌”
