In 2021, she took to social media to share what influenced her to take her weight loss journey seriously. She revealed that a balance of sleep and meditation were major contributors to her journey.

“Starting this weight loss journey 8 months ago, but making other changes in my life helped me lose more lbs. Getting consistent sleep, meditation, finding a great therapist to help me unpack hurt, forgiving those who’ve done me harm, more acceptance, less religion & more relationship discovering that God loves me no matter what (yeah I am freaky and I curse), more water, more walking… being thankful, finding my worth… saying no. Had to say goodbye to some friends who weren’t good for me. Peace makes the weight fall off,” she wrote.

Speaking about how she felt, she added that her arms felt like rubber, just like her legs.
“My arms feel like rubber, my legs feel like rubber, I want to cry, but I am determined to make it through this class, cause you gotta remember your ‘why’. Why are you doing this? Why are you trying to lose weight?” she added.
She also mentioned that her 16-year-old son was one of the main reasons why she decided to lose weight.
