The Biggest Loser’s Laura discusses her dismissal
This was definitely a difficult week on The Biggest Loser. Laura was sent packing because of the injury she suffered to her hip, bringing everyone, including tough-trainer Jillian Michaels, to tears. But even though Laura was always a bit difficult to motivate on the show, she’s working hard back home. She recently sat down with People.com to discuss life off the ranch and how The Biggest Loser has changed her.
How is your hip feeling and what are your workouts routines like?
I’m much better. My workouts mainly consist of going to physical therapy and cardio, which is limited to spinning on the bike or doing sit-down cardio because I can’t put any pressure or weight on my hips. My hip is still fractured. … So mainly, it’s just upper body weights, the bike and swimming, but I prefer being in a gym and listening to my music.With Jillian’s help, were you able to work through the emotional issues and get to the bottom of why you gained weight?
Yes, one thing was my father passing away from cancer when I was 15. I was filling that emptiness with food. My parents were divorced since I was 5 and being on my own as an only child, I was always looking for food as a comfort. I always related food with my emotional self and now I’m learning that I can’t use food as an emotional crutch anymore. [Source]
