Background
Laura Denoux lost her father at the young age of 15. This lead her eating to spiral out of control, despite having been a self-proclaimed "big-girl" before then. Denoux has tried many different diet plans trying to lose weight, but has been unsuccessful in the past. She once worked as a plus-sized model at a Miami modeling agency, but was shocked when she gained weight and as a size 14 was considered too large for most modeling work.
