Quote from Steph

I pulled on my jeans and as I did up the button, it popped back open again.  I’d noticed the pounds had been creeping on for a while and had put it down to stress – I was studying hard at college, but I had also lost a baby at 17 weeks. Though I’d had a tough time, I had been eating a healthy diet like I always did. Weeks later, I stood on the scales and gasped. I had gained three stones. Weeks later, my clothes were baggy. I had lost the three stones I’d gained and some. I couldn’t get my head around it.

My weight continued to fluctuate as I kept yo-yoing between a size 12 and 18. I was often called fat or lazy at my heaviest, and when I suddenly lost weight, people accused me of taking drugs. When I was 21, I had a son, Hunter. I separated from his dad and being a single parent was tough. There were times when I couldn’t afford to eat anything but rice and vegetables, yet the pounds were piling back on again. One day, I got an Instagram notification on a photo I’d uploaded. A person had written: ‘Someone’s harpooned a whale.
