Oti, 34, gave birth a year ago and also battles with gestational diabetes.

She took to social media sharing how her health concerns spurred her into action with seeking out a more active lifestyle.

"It wasn’t just about the number on the scale," Oti explained. "It was about feeling stronger, healthier, and more alive."

Starting her journey at a size 18, Oti has now slimmed down to a size 10, but she emphasized that this transformation was never about getting "skinny".
