ARETHA FRANKLIN –DIET & EXERCISE

Aretha Louise Franklin is an American singer, songwriter, actress, pianist and civil rights activist. At the age of 18, she began her secular music career as a recording artist with Columbia Records. Although Franklin’s career did not immediately flourish, she received praise and commercial success after signing with Atlantic Records in 1966. Popular songs include “I never loved a man”, “respect”, “feel like a “natural woman”, “a chain of fools”, “thinking” and “I say a little Prayer” which made her surpass her peers in the music industry.

By the end of the 1960s, Aretha Franklin was known as the “Queen of Souls.”The Queen of Soul herself can do no wrong. But her weight got to a point where it was downright unhealthy and she was struggling with health issues. Aretha took control and lost an impressive 85 lbs to regain control over her weight, health and life. Aretha is 74 years old these days and the weight loss means that she is going to be around for far longer, which we are over the moon about!
