Hi all,
My name is Molly and I live in LA w/ my husband and our two GS dogs. My situation is a little unique. I moved to LA 8 years ago to model, which I did until 2013 when I graduated college and worked a traditional office job. After 2 1/2 years, I was laid off in November. After exploring traditional work options, I've decided to get back in the modeling / commercial acting industry.
While I have always been thin, my methods of losing weight while modeling were far from healthy. I would yo-yo between eating a piece of toast and a bowl of cereal in a day to guzzling Inn N Out milkshakes with my roommates. Now I'm focusing on getting my body back in "model shape" in the healthiest manner possible. I do lagree pilates several days a week and also enjoy running, hiking and walking our dogs. My biggest struggle, as I'm sure most of you can relate, has been alcohol. Second struggle is cooking healthy dinners for myself when I also cook for my husband who likes his meat and potatoes!
Please feel free to add me as a friend and say hi. Everyone's progress is so inspiring, and I enjoy hearing about everyone's goals!

Try Blue Apron for healthy no fuss meals. They ship the ingredients fresh right to your house and I guarantee your hubby will like them too. I have a "free week" trial if you'd like to check it out. I love Lagree! Do you really think that it burns 500-700 calories though? Good luck!0
