"This year has honestly been one of the most confusing, testing years of my life (and I think for a lot of others too) but my word has it taught me so many lessons that I will never EVER forget.

"This exact date last year I was seriously low and clasping at straws to find ways to get myself feeling better. To look back at where I was then and where I am now, it\'s almost like I\'m looking at two different people. Not even just physically, but mentally I know how far I\'ve come. I had the worst anxiety, falling asleep thinking about death every night, zero purpose, zero motivation, in denial about my relationship with alcohol, food & most importantly, myself. My life has been turned absolutely upside down - and for the better. (sic)"

Alexandra feels "proud" that she\'s managed to change her lifestyle.

The reality star wrote: "All I wanted to do was strive to be the best version of myself. It\'s been hard - I won\'t sugarcoat it. The maintenance has been hardest part. Learning to trust myself whilst being in lockdown with minimal distractions, moving away from home, sick family members, wanting to raid the cupboard out of boredom, lack of human connection... Constantly having to remind myself WHY I started. Eventually the new habits I\'d made have become a LIFESTYLE and I\'m so proud of the person I\'ve become. The fact I\'m able to inspire others achieve the best version of themselves just fills me with so much joy & so incredibly rewarding - it\'s the best part. (sic)"
