As a young teen, Raegan Katene's school days were spent being bullied. To this day, she has never understood why.
"I was just that person people picked on," says Raegan, now 18.
Despite changing schools, the bullying persisted with Raegan feeling completely isolated by her classmates.
"I wouldn't come out of my room. I'd eat junk food, I never ate full meals. I excluded myself. I wanted to give up. I had no determination to do anything."
Raegan's lifestyle saw her spending a lot of time alone, eating whenever she was bored or to make herself feel better. She wore dark, baggy clothes in a size 18 to 20. By the time she was 15 she weighed 104 kilograms.
Happiness is all I had
