The initial photo captures her at the beginning of her journey in August 2021 when she had "gained 4st", but "hated exercise and wasn't eating healthily". She continued: "October 2021: Behind the smiles, I felt incompetent and hopeless..

. My self-esteem and confidence was non-existent. "November 2021: I was disgusted in myself.
