BBNaija Uriel talks about waist trainers
Ghanain actress Yvonne Nelson, however, got Uriel talking when she said waist trainers and slimming teas cannot give people the body they want.
Reacting to the actress' post, Uriel said waist trainers have been around since the 1800s which is why there is a huge market for it.
According to her, waist training helps to structure the body while one maintains a healthy lifestyle.
She said:
"We are Africans right ?? What happens after African women gives birth ? We bind/tie our stomach right?? Now if that isn’t old school waist training then I don’t know. So does waist training work? Look through my pictures I combine everything, Diet small small workout..
"From a size 16 to now. Yo let me continue biko. I can tell you this any woman who has struggled with their weight will know this.. when you put on a trainer and you can finally fit into a dress that feeling is gold!!! Work??"

My tiny waist and curves are natural
Legit.ng earlier reported that Uriel addressed the people saying negative things about her body.
The reality star revealed the routine that keeps her tiny waist and curvy body in check. Her revelation was in a reply to people who were discrediting her hard work and attributing her body to surgery.
Uriel in her post asked trolls to get off her back, saying that her body is hundred per cent natural, and they have no idea how much work goes into getting herself to stay in shape. Oputa who has no problem with those getting their bodies worked on also asked people to give natural bodies some credit.
