Erica Campbell pays a price for indulging during the holidays: “I’m usually 10 to 15 pounds heavier by the top of the year”

Atria BooksThis is Erica Campbell‘s favorite time of the year, as she prepares to celebrate the holidays with her husband, Warryn Campbell, and their three children, Krista Nicole, Warryn III, and Zaya Monique. However, like many people, the five–time Grammy winner admits she overindulges at the dinner table.

“I love, love holiday time. Thanksgiving always gets cheated, but I love Thanksgiving and Christmas. The food. The fellowship. The fun,” Erica tells ABC Audio.

“I try not to gain weight. It doesn’t work,” she laughs. “I’m usually 10 to 15 pounds heavier by the top of the year. But hey, we go to the gym and work it off.” 

Campbell was among the many stars who celebrated Donnie McClurkin’s 60^th birthday recently in New York City. She performed at a special concert for the gospel legend on November 16 along with Kierra Sheard, Tramaine Hawkins, Cece Winans, CeCe’s brother Pastor Marvin Winans, and many more.

In October, she published her first book, More Than Pretty: Doing The Soul Work That Uncovers Your True Beauty.
