Personal Trainer

Sophie developed a broad and heavy frame after puberty. Her largest dress size was US (12-14) and being an aspiring actor, she often experienced self-imposed pressure to lose weight.
She tried a range of restrictive diets some of which were juicing, Atkins diet, Vegetable only diet. She also hired a personal trainer, attempted Bikram Yoga and laser liposuction to no avail.
In 2014, at a health retreat at Canyon Ranch, Tucson, Arizona she was asked to get her blood and urine tested for food allergies since she often suffered from eczema. The diagnosis revealed that she was allergic to chocolate, dairy, yeast, tuna, pecans, and celery. Since her allergies were not severe, they did not result in severe reactions but turned out to be the primary cause behind her excess weight.
With newfound awareness to avoid specific combinations of food, Sophie lost some weight and saw a major improvement in her body composition. She finally acquired a leaner face, waist, and hips.
She admits her body weight still fluctuates a lot since she often overlooks her food allergies to self-indulge, but knows her boundaries now. She gets heavier, particularly after a holiday binge but manages to return to a dress size 8 (US) most of the time.
To support her dietary habits, she frequently hikes with her dogs, runs on the treadmill in the gym, loves the stair climber at Equinox gym, lifts light weights, or attends a spin class. She intensifies her physical activity 4 weeks prior to a photoshoot.
She particularly holds a lot of faith in Pilates to strengthen her body.
Her self-awareness motivates her to endorse and promote body confidence for all young women and she elaborates upon realistic goals on social media in collaboration with Cosmopolitan magazine.
