Testimonial

One of the biggest things I was concerned about before E was born was whether or not I’d be able to bounce back both physically and mentally. Call me vain, that’s OK.  But honestly, that was a concern.

When I was pregnant I ended up gaining around 55 lbs.  It stings to say it, even now. Everything I heard and read talked about 25-30 lbs being a realistic weight gain.  I’m here to tell you, it doesn’t always work that way.  No matter how well you eat, or work out during.  Your body will do what it wants to do.  You can help it but I DEFINITELY couldn’t control it.

Once E did finally make his appearance, my mind started the clock…how long would it take for me to get back to pre-baby weight?  When would I be able to work out the way I use to?

I’ll give you the ending to the story first…I WAS in fact able to get back to pre-baby weight.  In fact, I’m 5-10 lbs under (depending on the day) and holding steady.

Hi, my name is Sue and I live in North England I had been overweight most of my adult life, putting weight on, going on a silly diet, maybe losing a little, but of course, it would all come straight back on very quickly. I am type one diabetic, which means I am insulin controlled, and I blamed my weight a lot that. I just made excuse after excuse.

Then, in 2010, I had my second marriage, and at the time, I thought I looked like the bee’s knees. I was quite overweight, I was just trying to say I didn’t care, and I still looked great. I couldn’t look at my wedding pictures without feeling sick with disappointment and embarrassment.

Those pictures were the kick up my backside that I needed. I started my journey of clawing back my physical best.  I had a lot to learn, and relied on cardio. I did cycling, aerobics and DVD’s, long story short, I managed to drop forty pounds, and then came the real job of maintaining. I had discovered the joys of strength training, and invested in a set of dumbbells.

I met you back stage at he the CJ Classic and let me just start by saying thank you so much for your help that crazy day.  I think I must have changed 20 something times and was so nervous. Then you came over absolutely beautiful inside and out and helped to sooth my nerves me and give me your advice. I have always thought of you and have always wanted to say thank you so much for being such an inspiration and a help that my first show.
I love what I do and train 6 days a week and eat clean. I am working on my NASM Personal Training certificate and I would like to continue to inspire others and make a difference in peoples lives.

I wanted to attach these two pictures so there is a face with the name. They are exactly a year apart, one from the CJ classic and the one before the transformation. I lost 50 lbs. and went from 38% body fat to 6% for the show.  I did this with hard work and determination, all on my own and brought my own package to the stage.

I can’t believe that was me 4 years ago.  I remember back then I had resigned myself to the fact that I was older, closing in on my 40s, with two kids and that because of all these facts I would never have the body I had in my 20s and I would of course never be able to wear a bikini again.

Thank goodness I proved myself wrong!  It happened by chance that a trainer came up to me one day at the gym and asked me if I was interested in trying out a couple of free sessions and who turns down a free session?  hahaha!  Well, I got hooked from that point on to working out with weights.

I remember before I thought to myself that’s not for women.  I don’t want to be bulky.  I don’t want to build big huge man muscles.  hahahaha! Little did I know my body needed it.  4 years later, I’m 42 years old and I’m not only wearing bikinis, I’m competing in bikini competitions!

My name is Suzanne and I am 42 years old. I am the mom of four wonderful kids. My “before” picture was taken in 2002. This was the year I completed my first marathon, the MDI Marathon, in a time of 6 hours and 47 minutes. It was hard work being so heavy, but I finished. I realized I was carrying around a lot of baggage in my life (both in pounds and emotionally) and in 2004, I finally started to take charge of my lif

I began a weight loss journey, and then started running in earnest. I came back in 2007 to run the MDI Marathon again, and this time finished with a time of 4:31. My journey has continued and is still evolving. My best marathon time is 3:51; I was less than 2 minutes from qualifying for Boston! This July, I will complete my first ultra marathon, which is 50k distance.

Just in this past year, I have learned about clean eating, so that is becoming a part of my journey along with weight lifting. I will compete in MDI again this fall, but after that I would like to take a step away from distance running and focus on body building.

Laura, you have been a great inspiration to me.

Thank you.

“I want to live a full life, without the complexes that overweight brings”

Working behind a desk, post-pregnancy, a sedentary life and a dreadful diet was what took me to weigh 287 lbs, with only 64 inches tall, during a 10 years period.

I was always a thin girl and practiced volleyball during my adolescence but when I married and had more responsibilities, I started to forget about exercise to the point of not doing any at all.  When I gave birth to my daughter Valerie that’s already 11 years old, I rapidly began to gain weight.  Everything in my life was the house, work and family; exercise was completely eliminated.

Years past and I continued gaining weight without control.  My job of Administrative Manager in a manufacturing company would keep me sitting down for more than 7 hours and had a dreadful diet at the same time.  I would wake up in a hurry leaving to work without eating breakfast.  In many cases I would skip lunch.  When I got home exhausted I would help my daughter with homework, cooked and did household shores.

When I finally sat down to eat, I would do it with an excessive appetite and rapidly going to bed.  I had stopped and boycotted my metabolism completely, living a totally sedentary life.

I have always been active. Never over weight in my life. Staying at home with my greatest accomplishment our 2 boys, Logan & Landon, I found myself too *comfortable*. I saw a picture of myself that I did not recognize. Or Like. So I started my journey back into fitness. I had been a CPT for almost 10 years in the 90′s. I DECIDED NO MORE. I DECIDED to work hard and find myself again. But not just an *OK version* of me. But the BEST me I can be. Not just for myself, but for my husband, and our boys too.

Picking up the heavy weights again for the first time in quite awhile. Just a little girl from TX with BIG FITNESS dreams. It is truly a journey. Not happening as fast as id like. But it WILL happen. I am blessed beyond measure and we live an amazing life. I am so grateful to God for our precious family♥ Finding *ME* again is just cake. A healthy cake of course….

I really enjoyed your presentation at the Health & Fitness Expo in Concord NC. I find myself turning 50 this year and I identified with some fat where I didn’t want it and many other things. I actually thought for years that I would become a body builder, but never had the knowledge or maybe even confidence to get there. However you did inspire me to join the gym – which I’m going to 3 days a week. I eat pretty healthy – I grow all of my own organic foods, I preserve (can) lots of things all year. I have my own honey bees and chickens for my eggs. I don’t eat out very much because I want to control what I eat as much as possible. I’m also into nutrition – so you were so easy to identify with. I use nutrition to treat the cause of an illness – not just treating the symptom. Thanks again Laura. *Results may vary

Hi Laura! I just read your interview from Maniac Fitness and I found my eyes welling up as I was going through it.

It’s funny when your “friends” with someone you follow on Facebook and you find things you relate with them about, you can’t help but feel connected a bit as well. I have been following all of the things you have been teaching. I am on this ride with you as a fan & 40 year old supporter! Out of all of the Gazillions of Fit Chicks, Models & Competitors I have come across, you are the one who sticks with me. You are the one who makes me believe…. just maybe… I can reach my goals too.

Thank you so much for picking me up when I’m feeling defeated. I am so pulling for you, from way over here. *Results may vary

Dear Laura, I would like to wish you a Merry Christmas. You are a great fitness coach and an inspiring woman!

I consistently do my favorite sets of your exercises and I can’t believe my weight is melting off. I promised to keep you posted on my progress to let you know, I have lost another 4 kilos, which in total makes me 8 kilos lighter since June.

Yesterday I watched a family video my husband made Christmas, it hurt to watch it. I looked heavy and very tired. Watching it, I felt so sorry for myself, because I knew how unhappy and hopeless the woman in the film was. So yesterday it occured to me that this Christmas is going to be very different. It’s going to be just beautiful, because I feel so right now!

So thank you for helping me get where I am with your work. The regaining of my health and self-confidence is like the best Christmas present I could get. I thought that by telling you this I will give you a little Christmas present, too. *Results may vary

I admire your talent. I didn’t think it was possible to lose weight after 40 (well, I’m a few days from being 40) but you changed that around. You soooo inspire me.

Thank you sooo much Laura for EVERYTHING! I appreciate you so much and am so lucky to have you as my friend. I look up to you in so many ways and knowing that I have people like you supporting me in this is so awesome and rewarding! This journey has been the absolute hardest thing I have ever done physically and mentally, but I have become a different person, a stronger one.

You told me once to “follow your dreams because you never know where they will take you”, and I am still trying to pinch myself for all of the amazing things that have happened in my life this year ever since I decided to go for my dreams. Thank you for your inspiration and guidance and courage to step out there and make a difference in the world. In this world of negativity, it is time for the positivity to shine! *Results may vary

Hi Laura,
I wanted to share with you the benefits that I have gotten with your green smoothie recipes. My favorite is the kale and spinach. The cracks on my heals… gone. A battle for twenty years! Heart burn problems…. Gone! My skin is soft. No more rough elbows. My hair seems longer. Face has more color. Lost 4 lbs. when I started drinking it 1 month ago I had absolutely no idea about any of the benefits. I am now sharing this with my friends. Thank you! *Results may vary
