Beth approached Blake about shooting some photos, and Blake came up with the idea to make them pop culture-inspired. And although gastric bypass surgery helped Beth kickstart her weight loss, she told Yahoo Canada she's also overhauled her lifestyle to get healthier. "Beth is now a regular biker to work and is also in a roller derby team now," Blake wrote in an email to WomensHealthMag.com. "Just goes to show that exercise doesn't have to be boring."

While Blake obviously used digital technology to create this series, which he's calling "The Beth Project," he is careful to point out that he never altered Beth's body. "I’ve lost weight, but I haven’t lost who I am," Beth told Yahoo Canada. "It's just given me more opportunities to be more me, if that makes sense. There were things I'd always wanted to do and try but my weight had gotten in my way. Now, I feel like I have the freedom to pursue them more."
