My name is Laura Henry and this is my fitness journey. There is the right place and the right time for everything. I am a firm believer in that. Now is the right place and right time for me. For years I have struggled with my weight. Most of my life, actually. I have had such an obsession with food that it stuffed the emotions of turmoil in my mind and buried it. Trouble is, my outward appearance was a reflection of my inward struggles.

My before and after pictures can attest to that fact. Eighteen years ago I was 257 lbs. and miserable. Today I am lean, healthy, and happy. Because I understand what it feels like to be morbidly obese and then go on a continuum of yo-yo dieting for fifteen years, I am passionate about helping others achieve a fit and healthy lifestyle.

I never really knew what to eat, when to eat, how to workout. I knew some things but I didn’t know how to put it together to reach my goals. I thought the answer was to just workout hard, but I was doing that for 8 years and I was getting fatter. Why? Because I didn't understand the significant role that nutrition played in this. I was eating junk! This is why balance is the key to success.
