How YOU can be happy: Woman who overcame depression and an eating disorder says others can fight an 'epidemic of self loathing' by making just THREE changes

US-based Instagrammer @babybelly_to_sixpack, who doesn't use her real name on her account, shares her fitness progress online. 

After giving birth to her first child in 2013, she decided to get in shape. She lost more than 50lbs from her highest pregnancy weight - and then maintained her fitness regimen through her second pregnancy, working out at her home gym, running, lifting weights, and sticking to a healthy diet. 

After giving birth, she lost 10lbs in a week, and went on to drop from 178lbs at 40 weeks to 148lbs five months later.
