Everyone keeps asking me for a more before and after shots. Well, I call this my
before, before, after, and after shot!
This is me BEFORE I began my weight loss journey. (Dec 2007)
This is me BEFORE my run this morning. (Notice the nice new water bottle holder belt-thingy! - I just may be turning into a serious runner!)
And this is AFTER I finished 21.6km run....notice the smile! I DID IT!
I ran 1.4km to the Running Room, then joined my clinic group and we ran 18.8km, then I walked 1.4km home.
My race day is September 20th, I am getting excited!
And here is another AFTER shot, after my shower and freshen' up! Showing off my new hair colour! (It is a bit darker than I thought it would be - the box said Light brown! I wanted a change!!!!)
I had a follow up with my doctor last week
- my BMI went from 44.6 to 30.1!
- my fat mass went from 115 pounds to 49 pounds!
- too bad his little scale cannot measure how much higher my confidence, pride and desire to live an active, healthy lifestyle really is - cause, it is THROUGH THE ROOF!!!!!!

You are awesome. Such a great inspiration for anyone tackling a life change, and not just weight, anything!
Holy - you are so completely inspiring, those stats from your doctor are absolutely incredible. But I love how you say too bad it can't measure the truly important things.
Congratulations - you are amazing!
Wow, what a difference. And you can totally see your owning it by the smile on your face!
Nice job, Laura!!
Amazing Laura! You are simply amazing. Congratulations!
You are a delight! I love the way you ended this post, with being unable to measure the positive things your hard work has done for you.
I love seeing your pictures and the smile on your face!!
I love my water bottle holder thingy.
From someone who has done the same GREAT JOB!!
And totally jealous of how far you ran. I limped through 3 miles this weekend. Had one of those hard runs.
Fantastic!
You look great!
YOU LOOK SO FABULOUS!!!! Way to go with the running :)
