The actress-philanthropist also encouraged those who are struggling to lose weight to take their time and continue to love themselves no matter what.

“So for those struggling to lose that extra weight, please don't feel pressured. I tell you that I understand that it's not easy, having been fighting weight gain for years. Pressure did not and will not help. Just take your time. Your body, your rules,” Angel said.

“Just don't forget to love every inch in the process, no matter what other people may say. You are more than your weight or how you look. What's important is how you feel and think of yourself. Shine. Don't let the perception of others dim your light. I know you are trying. I know it's hard. I understand,” she added.

Angel then narrated that she was able to slowly lose some weight but acknowledged that she remains to be a work in progress.

In addition, the TV-film actress also shared that she has been taking care of her health and is trying out something new.

“I will share with you my process and journey some other time, when I'm more confident na. But this not without struggles and bumps. I will not let anyone dictate my pace. But I am looking forward to what I can achieve in the next 3 months or so,” Angel shared.

Local celebrities like Raymond Gutierrez, Dimples Romana, Iya Villania, and Bea Alonzo expressed their love and happiness for Angel's milestone through sincere messages.
