"It's been life-changing. I wouldn't trade it for the world. The thing that bothered me the most about myself was my stomach. I never liked it. I didn't like how big it was and how it hung. Me and my sister would go out and do something, and I would change five-six times because I felt like I couldn't find something that actually looked decent on me, or I turned around because I thought somebody was judging me."
She added,
"It's been a real strict diet and it's completely different from what I'm used to, but I'm starting to enjoy it. I'm more confident in myself. I'll go and wear a tight fitting shirt or something super cute and not have to worry about my stomach bulging out. I really enjoy the way that I'm turning out to be."
