American singer and songwriter, Meghan Trainor, has opened up about her postpartum depression and weight loss journey after the birth of her son, Riley.
Meghan in an interview with ET Canada said she was in a bad place after she gave birth.
According to her, she’s never had stitches but she gave birth through a C-Section surgery and had to deal with the huge scar.
She talked about how she had gained weight during her pregnancy and after and she had to struggle to lose them daily while loving her newborn.
She said, “I was, like, over 200 pounds when I C-sectioned him out.
“I just wasn’t feeling great. I’ve never had stitches, so to have this C-section scar, I was in a really dark place and I wanted to be in a great place for my son.
“I worked every day and challenged myself. I was like, ‘If I can survive a C-section, I can do anything.’
“I was very dedicated and I started seeing the pounds come off like one week at a time.
“I learned that I do like healthy food and I learned what portions mean. And I learned my brain is so happy when I exercise, so I’m just [feeling] better than ever.”
She tied the knot with her ‘Spy kids’ star, Daryl Sabara, on December 22, 2018. They welcomed their son in 2021.
