“That completely surprised me.”
After having her first child in 2020, Caitlin, from Mississippi, US, struggled with postpartum depression.
During that period, she turned to alcohol as a coping mechanism.
“I wasn’t drinking a lot in quantity,” the project manager explained, “just often”.
“A glass of wine a day, a beer after running with my husband – it became habitual, comfortable,” she added.
By 2024, Caitlin was 241lbs (109kg) and size 18 (US).
“I had two little kids and was really struggling to get through every day,” she said.
