As Rachael struggled to deal with the grief of losing her mother, she began to find comfort in food. She had learned very little about healthy food and nutrition from her mother and father as a child, and without her mother around she knew even less.
It’s not uncommon for people to cope with grief through comforting foods, and once you start it can be hard to stop. So, she filled her stomach with junk food such as potato chips, sugary snacks, and a huge amount of soda. On top of this, she would always have large portions of food for her main meals. In the end, she got heavier and heavier as the years went by.
