About Erika Nicole Kendall

creator of A Black Girl's Guide To Weight Loss

I've never been good at these kinds of intros, so you'll have to pardon me for jumping all over the place.

I'm a young woman who has fought problems with weight loss for years. After picking up weight at a rate of 20 lbs a year, I finally decided to slow down, take some time to assess what I was doing to myself and why it was happening so fast. What was I doing so wrong?

After taking a lot of time to myself, I worked out, took my emotional eating into consideration, and sure enough my weight started to fall off. I learned things about myself and my interaction with food that I never heard any other woman address... and I can't help but wonder.. why?
