September 23, (THEWILL) – Former Big Brother Naija star, Uriel Oputa, has opened up on what led to her weight gain, a couple of years ago.
She stated that she was suffering from depression and because of that, she found solace in food.
“I was an emotional eater, I struggled with depression (still dealing with it) and found comfort in food. I didn’t understand what full was, I knew I felt uncomfortable, but I didn’t care.
“When people ask me to help them the first thing I ask is, Are you mentally ready?? It’s a tough battle, but you shall overcome,” she said.
She accompanied her write up with a before and after picture on her Instagram page.
