Shonda Rhimes is the queen of primetime TV series on ABC. From grey's Anatomy and Scandal to her latest masterpiece, How To Get Away With Murder. She is indeed a genius when it comes to penning these stories and producing them. But just like ordinary Americans, there is one thing that she shares with a lot of this country's citizens and that is her struggle on weight loss.

As previously reported by FoodWorldNews, she started making a change in her eating habits after getting on a plane and realizing she couldn't buckle herself and it's not because there was something wrong with the seatbelt, but it was her. It was a moment of epiphany for the producer and it definitely turned her life around.

Since then, she started living a healthier lifestyle that she finally lost about 100 pounds. In her interview with Extra, among the things that inspired her to lose weight was her children. For those who don't know, Rhimes is a mom of two kids that she adopted, Harper who is 13 and Emerson who is only 3.

There were rumors of her saying she has undergone gastric sleeve surgery, Rhimes debunked it and she revealed how she actually lost weight. She said that she practically did everything she has been avoiding for a long time and those are eating right and exercising. It helped that she made a complete change from the food that she used to eat. After doing that, she noticed that she no longer craved for those and is now looking forward to eating a lot of healthier options like fish and vegetables.

For those who aspire to lose weight, take this producer's word and learn from her experience. It is never too late to shed all the unwanted pounds in your body that only keep you from being healthy.
