Health issue/s addressed by tsd: Knee injury, weight gain, unhealthy eating habits, body image

Cheryl Pearce speaks about: “I had a knee accident. I was trying to learn to ski and I snapped my ligament. Obviously when that happened, exercise just went out the window. That’s when I started putting my weight on. Menopause hit me and I just wanted to eat everything out of the fridge. I felt totally out of control. I had to get bigger clothes but I hated shopping because I didn’t want to go into those fitting rooms where you’ve got that massive mirror, the light shines above you, and it shows up everything that you really don’t want to show. But my body shape had completely changed and I went and bought big mirrors so I could look in the mirrors. I was trying on my old clothes and I could actually get into them. It was such an amazing feeling. It’s given me my confidence back”.
