She claimed that when she was at her heaviest, not only was she struggling with her health as a result of her weight, but she could barely bend down to put her shoes on either.
As a result, Catherine made the conscious decision to shift the weight – without going under the knife.
Posting on social media, Catherine explained that she went from a size 40 to a size 5, and is as small as she was when she was just 13-years-old.
The wellness enthusiast and body positive content creator explained: “It’s been a whole new life gained for sure.
“Loving this new life and thankful for each day I get these feet to work on me.”
In one clip, Catherine revealed just how she was able to lose the weight.
She explained: “My choice was not to have weight loss surgery, because I struggled so much with emotional eating, that a surgery wasn’t gonna fix that.
“I had to do things to fix me, both physically and mentally.”
Catherine then explained that she takes supplements every day and focuses on goals and self-love.
She continued: “I take these [supplements] because when I wake up in the morning, I need something to make me more alert and more focused on my goals.
“Your body is miraculous, it can go, go, go, go, go, but your brain wants to shut down.
“Mindset is key on a journey. So for me, having these to just wake me up, keep me mentally focused, have that cognitive function. It also helps with inflammation and stuff.”
She then revealed: “I was weighing in at over 450 lbs. I’m talking pre-diabetic, high blood pressure.
“I was sick all the time. I couldn’t even hold down a part time job. I was so sick.
“Surgery was not for me because I knew that it wasn’t gonna fix the issues that I had.
“I didn’t love myself, I didn’t have a healthy relationship with food.
“I knew I needed to fix the things that had control over my life.
“I immediately started habit stacking and I started creating healthy habits.
“Your journey is not gonna be perfect. But I see it as if I can make a better choice each and every day – that’s moving my body for 20 minutes, drinking a gallon of water, making sure I’m fueling my body nutritiously, no snacking after dinner, taking daily progress photos.
“I also do a lot of personal development, so I have this self-love workbook that I do every 30 to 60 days.”
In another video, Catherine showed off her figure and favourite new top after her weight loss.
She said: “I’m gonna share with you guys why I’m so obsessed with these rubble tanks, okay?
“I’ve literally lost 300 lbs. Everything sags, like I said.
“Do your boobs hang low? Do they wobble to and fro? Yes, mine do.
“They literally come down to my hips.
“This tank that you’re about to see, that can hold up my tatas without any support, you better believe me, I’m grabbing it in every single colour.”
Catherine then tried on a ruffle top, as she explained: “I’ve got mocha and another couple colours on the way, because this is just so cute.
“My plan definitely is to probably wear it with leggings or something, and then a sweater over it or a denim jacket.
“Honestly, it just feels freeing and so many ways, but these are amazing.”
In another clip, Catherine shared a variety of pictures of her before and after her dramatic weight loss.
She then danced around, proudly debuted her slimmed down physique.
Moments later, Catherine tried on a denim skirt, from when she was a size 40.
With the skirt miles too big, Catherine broke down in tears, thrilled with her insane progress.
The TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @catshrank, has clearly left many totally open-mouthed, as it has quickly amassed 60,600 views.
Social media users were gobsmacked at Catherine’s weight loss transformation and were eager to express this in the comments.
One person said: “Congratulations! You are truly glowing.”
Another added: “Wow…You are an inspiration! Keep shining bright. You are beautiful!!”
A third commented: “Well done! You must be so very proud of yourself. You are an inspiration to others that feel losing weight is impossible.”
Meanwhile, someone else wrote: “Makes me want to cry! Way to Gooooo.”
To this, Catherine replied: “Me too I get emotional a lot, just yesterday when putting on my shoes and bending over! At one point I couldn’t do that.”
