Alexa is an 18-year-old girl, about 5.5 feet (165 cm) tall. Before her transformation, she looked fairly average. She had light brown hair, usually tied in a simple ponytail, and she dressed in a relaxed, practical way—hoodies, jeans, and sneakers.
Over the course of the summer, the change was remarkable. Her posture improved, her body became toned and athletic, and she moved with much more confidence. The sunlight of summer gave her skin a healthy glow, and her hair—sometimes worn loose now.
