At 22 years old, Laura Micetich AKA ‘The Iron Giantess’ weighed over 300lbs and was facing a raft of health issues including hyperthyroidism, high blood pressure and prediabetes. She realised that without a radical change in diet and lifestyle, her precious youth would be lost already and she was facing a short and difficult life.
“I grew up heavy. I also grew up a ball buster. So there was no chance I was going to admit I was insecure about my appearance”
“I played it cool and a lot of people bought it. After finally having time to think about who I wanted to be, I decided to make a change”
It all started with the barbell. “I fell in love with weightlifting and that changed the game for me”
“It only took a few weeks for me to realize that I didn’t need to go under the knife. I needed to get under the bar”
“I started weight training almost daily, spending hours in the gym and studying research and scientific findings relating to health, fitness, and nutrition”
“In the first year, I shed more than 100 pounds without surgery and significantly changed my unhealthy habits”
“I just adjusted my diet. I ate lots of clean foods and removed all starches and processed sugars”
“I stopped eating out. I stopped getting takeout. I stopped buying junk at the grocery store”
“This is my heaviest – over 300lbs in 2014. My thinnest – at 180 in May 2017. My current at about 195”
“I am now health issue free and my life has changed for the better with the simple realization that what we want and what we do are completely in our own control”
“With patience, age, and a little self-love, your smile won’t quite catch on your insecurities the same way it once did. Give it time..”
