The 26 year old actress played Tracy Turnblad in the 2016 live production of Hairspray.
She went on to play one of the evil step sisters in the Camila Caballo version of “Cinderella”. She says she couldn’t keep up with the choreo and would run out of breath and they would have to pause production and restart for her.
The pandemic hit and she had all of this free time so she just started walking. Her endurance quickly increased and she was soon waking two hours a day.
With some diet changes as well she claims she has now lost over half her original weight.
