"My friends could eat whatever they wanted to, but I knew that as a kid if I ate certain things I would totally gain weight. I had to be really cognizant of what I ate."

As she grew up, she started her career as an assistant to the agent and teacher as well.

During her teaching years, she got into acting that led her to lose some weight. She moved to Los Angeles for the audition of This Is Us and lost 50 pounds before landing the role of Kate Pearson in the NBC Drama.

Chrissy, who was bounded in emotional eating habits, suffered from depression, which she says the reason behind her weight gain. She also got hospitalized after having a panic attack led by depression.
