Laura Dion-Jones Casey

Laura is America's Preeminent Pro-Health Activist, a Certified Wellness Coach, author, motivational and lifestyle writer and speaker, and a fashion and make-over expert - among other things. She's also a low carber who has lost over 130 pounds and kept it off over 6 years!

After struggling with weight for a lifetime, Laura still considers herself a recovering, chronically obese woman who is now enjoying life as a much healthier, thinner, less encumbered, and more beautiful person. Laura feels it's her duty to help all those who struggle with their weight because of ignorance, because of medical and economic politics, and because they're on the wrong diet, health and fitness plan.
