When she got pregnant at a friend’s baby shower, she noticed that she was the biggest of her friends there. Only a certain photo changed her perception and motivated her to act to lose weight. According to the woman, she said:
When I saw this photo at my friend’s baby shower, I knew I had to change. I didn’t recognize myself and the person I had become. I felt disgusting.
At that time, she weighed exactly 163 kg, and her wardrobe was full of clothes in size 56. For the first time in her life, she felt that she had no strength to perform even the simplest activities without feeling tired and short of breath. She was also afraid to go to new places, such as restaurants and the cinema, for fear that she might be in armchairs. She wanted to lose the 30 kilos she gained during pregnancy so she could play with her son. Chantel said:
I never had self-confidence when I was overweight. I hated being out of shape. I couldn’t even get up off the floor holding my son, which made me very nervous.
