Mum who hit 22st from binge eating after her husband’s suicide makes ‘a choice to live’… and shares her impressive 6st weight loss in a time-lapse video
She spiralled into depression and comfort eating... but then turned her life around for her boys
A MUM-OF-TWO who spiralled into depression after her husband’s suicide has shed more than 6 stone after ‘choosing to live’.
Justine McCabe lost 6st 4lb in just one year, and has shared an amazing time lapse video of her transformation in a bid to inspire others.
Justine became an emotional eater after losing her mum two years ago, and said she left like she was already dead when her husband then took his own life in February last year.
Despite her crippling grief, Justine was determined to become healthier for her two sons, and began to eat healthily and hit the gym.
, she explained: “I want to help #raise others up as we push ourselves forward to a better life.
“I often tag #IChooseToLive with my photos because it is a constant choice I make every day to truly live.
Posting the video online, she wrote: “The person you see reflecting in the mirror...will provide you with the biggest challenges in life.
“The human spirit is powerful. Do the work. Suffer the setbacks, push past the pain and excuses. True motivation is not an outside source. It's staring directly back at you.
“There is nothing you cannot be, do or have. Live with no regrets and don't ever give up. This is what drives me. My motivation.”
