Jacqueline com muito esforço e perseverança conseguiu perder mais de 150 quilos. Quando uma pessoa perde peso abruptamente, geralmente sofrem consequências, já que a pele não encolhe na mesma velocidade em que o corpo muda, permanecendo flácida. Embora essa garota tenha conseguido emagrecer, as pessoas ficavam tirando sarro dela por causa da maneira como suas pernas estavam.

Sometimes it's hard to look back at pictures of myself.point 320 |

It's hard to imagine weighing over 500 pounds.point 43 | But that's me.point 59 | Jacqueline.point 70 | A girl who did in fact weigh over 500 pounds.point 106 | Who had an unhealthy relationship with food.point 144 | Who struggled to get out of the hole I dug for myself.point 187 | I was good at making excuses and pushing my problems aside.point 236 |

I laughed it off when I was made fun of and acted like it did not bother me.point 59 | But deep down inside, I was hurt.point 86 | I was scared.point 97 | I wanted to live my life again without my weight holding me back.point 150 | I wanted to love myself again.point 175 | I was the only one who was in control of my actions and my decisions.point 230 |

It was up to me.point 12 | As of today I can proudly say I have lost over 300 pounds.point 58 | No I did not have weight loss surgery.point 89 | No I do not have any magic pills or secret tricks to how I lost the weight.point 148 | I decided enough was enough and I took control back.point 191 | I changed my diet and began exercising.point 224 |

Change did not come easy and it did not happen overnight! But change is possible.point 67 | You have to be the one to decide you are ready.point 104 | You have to work hard and never give up.point 136 | You can do it!

Jacqueline ficou muito preocupada com a aparência das pernas. Ele não imaginava que elas ficariam assim. No entanto, ela decidiu ir em frente e ignorar os comentários maliciosos.

I love this picture!! And if this doesn't scream holiday cheer then I don't know what does!  But if we are  being honest I almost didn't want to post this.point 410 |

So when I got these pajamas my first thought was  automatically like "there is no way I was going to post a picture in these shorts" no matter how much I loved them! I told myself they would be fine to sleep in, but knew deep down how “bad” they would look on me.point 219 |

I had it programmed into my brain that I can't wear shorts.point 52 | When I got home they fit perfectly but that feeling of thinking how “bad” they must look kicked in right away.point 142 | Kevin thought they looked cute.point 169 | Of course I did not believe him.point 195 | So I decided to have him take my picture in them to prove to myself how “bad” they really did look.point 274 |

But instead, after I saw the picture, it captured something completely different.point 70 | I did not see how bad my legs looked.point 99 | When I first looked at this picture the first thing I saw was pure holiday joy! I saw myself happy and that made me smile.point 197 | It was then followed by my second reaction which was OMG my legs…but you know what? That's ok.point 284 |

It's ok to feel insecure.point 25 | We are human.point 36 | So why would I let a little insecurity like the skin on my legs stop me from sharing a picture that just shows…joy! I know what posting this picture might bring.point 173 | Comments asking why my legs are so big, why is my top half so small and bottom half so large and my personal favorite, people telling me I have lipodema.point 297 |

The bottom line? So what if I have big legs, or even if I did have lipodema.point 60 | That is not the point.point 78 | Our job is to love others, and love ourselves! We should not look at a picture of others, or ourselves and see everything that is wrong with it.point 195 | So I hope when you look at this pic you will see past all of my imperfections, look past my legs, and just see me, a girl who worked damn hard to get here and worked even harder to finally be happy! I am sending joy and happiness to all of you and hope you have the courage to embrace all of your insecurities too and just decide to be happy! This picture is just that… a girl who is happy…FINALLY!!!point 515 | 1

Chegou um momento em que Jacqueline estava muito feliz com seu peso, então ela decidiu usar um maiô durante as férias. Ela estava completamente feliz, embora as piadas não tivessem acabado. Um casal apontou para as pernas e riu constantemente delas.

When we were on vacation in Mexico a few weeks ago, it was the first time I had worn a bathing suit in a long time, and it had been even longer since I wore a bathing suit without a cover up.point 420 |

I was nervous to take my cover up off and to walk into the pool or walk on the beach.point 66 | I still felt like that same 500 pound girl…then it happened.point 122 | A couple sitting by the pool started laughing and pointing at me and making fun of me as soon as I took my cover up off.point 217 |

So what did I do? I took a deep breath, smiled and walked into the pool.point 57 | That was a huge moment for me.point 81 | I had changed.point 93 | I was not the same girl anymore.point 119 | Yes I still have a lot of loose skin, I may still feel insecure at times, and yes I may still get made fun of.point 205 |

To be honest, yes it bothered me.point 27 | But I was not going to let people like that affect me anymore! I am not going to let what other people think of me stop me from living my life.point 140 | They do not know me.point 156 | They do not know how I have worked my ass off to lose 350 pounds.point 207 |

They do not know how I am recovering from major surgeries.point 48 | They have no right to sit and point and laugh at me.point 89 | That's why I smiled.point 110 | It does not matter what others say or if they try to doubt you or try to bring you down.point 179 | What matters is how you react to it.point 208 |

How you feel about yourself.point 24 | Loving yourself just the way you are is hard.point 61 | Others might not like that.point 84 | That's ok.point 97 | I hope you love yourself.point 118 | Love your body.point 131 | I hope you keep doing you and just keep smiling! .point 171 | .point 172 | .point 173 | .point 174 | .point 175 | #jacquelineadan #jacquelinesjourney #effyourbeautystandards #selfloveclub #selflove #lovemybody #lovemyshape #loveyourself #teamself #extremeweightloss #weightloss #weightlossjourney #weightlosstransformation #weightlossmotivation #beforeandafter #beforeandafterweightloss #wlstories #onaquest #bodybuildingcom #bodypositive #bodyconfidence #bodyposi #transformationfitnation #motivationmonday #mondaymotivation #fitfam #fitspo #bodytransformation #igtransformations #transformationjourneypoint 635 | 1

Jacqueline respirou fundo e seguiu seu caminho. Ela passou por momentos muito difíceis, já que muitas pessoas zombaram dela, sem se importar com todo o trabalho físico e psicológico que ela teve que passar. Estas foram suas palavras:

“Quando estávamos de férias no México há algumas semanas, foi a primeira vez que me atrevi a usar um maiô em muito tempo e tinha sido muito mais tempo desde que eu tinha usado um maiô.point 155 | Desta vez tive muitos nervos para ir a piscina ou caminhar na praia.point 211 |

Eu me senti como aquela garota de 220 quilos e então … aconteceu.point 59 | Um casal sentado na beira da piscina começou a rir e tirar sarro de mim assim que tirei o sarongue.point 139 | Então, o que eu fiz? Eu respirei fundo, sorri e fui para a piscina.point 193 | Esse foi um ótimo momento para mim.point 222 |

Ela havia mudado.point 15 | Não era mais a mesma garota.point 38 | Sim, eu ainda tenho muita pele flácida, eu ainda posso me sentir insegura às vezes e sim, eles ainda podem tirar sarro de mim.point 141 | Para ser honesta, isso me incomodou, mas eu não ia deixar que pessoas assim me afetassem mais.point 219 |

Eles não me conhecem.point 18 | Eles não sabem o quanto eu tentei perder mais de 158 quilos.point 67 | Eles não sabem como estou me recuperando de cirurgias complexas.point 122 | Eles não têm o direito de se sentar, me apontar e rir de mim.point 170 | É por isso que sorri.point 187 | Não importa o que os outros dizem ou se eles tentam duvidar de você ou fazê-lo decair.point 257 |

O que importa é como você reage a isso, como se sente em relação a si mesmo.point 60 | Amar a si mesmo do jeito que você é é difícil.point 96 | Outros podem não gostar disso.point 122 | Está bem.point 130 | Mas eu espero que você ame a si mesmo, ame seu corpo.point 172 | Espero que você continue construindo e continue sorrindo “.point 229 |

Jacqueline tem muitos seguidores em suas redes sociais, a maioria dos quais aplaudiu suas palavras. Ela ficou feliz em receber tantos comentários positivos e expressões de afeto.

Link in bio I cannot believe it has been this long already! This recovery has been brutal to say the least and there were many times where I had to dig down deep and tell myself that this will get better.point 719 |

About 20 pounds was removed from my legs and the actual surgery was a very big procedure.point 73 | Now, 12 weeks later I am starting to feel like myself again.point 122 | 12 weeks ago it felt like I was never going to walk again, but here I am, stronger than ever and definitely not giving up anytime soon! I still have a long recovery ahead, and my check up with my surgeon on Friday did not go as I had hoped.point 313 |

  I am not going to be discouraged or let this get me down.point 47 | I am just going to take it one day at a time and keep moving forward! My body has been through a lot and right now it just needs love more than ever.point 164 | So that is what I am going to do! If you want to hear more about how my recovery is going and how I am doing 12 weeks post op, head over to my YouTube channel where I just posted a new video filling you guys in on everything!

A experiência de suas férias foi muito difícil, mas de alguma forma ajudou a perceber que ela tem que se preocupar com coisas mais importantes do que a opinião alheia.

Starting can be the hardest part, trust me, I know.point 450 |

Day 1 at the gym was HARD! It was not only physically challenging but mentally challenging as well.point 82 | I felt embarrassed, angry, and wanted to quit 5 minutes in.point 131 | It was hard, and I did not feel like I could do it.point 170 | I felt defeated.point 184 | But I never gave up.point 200 | Here I am, now 350 pounds lighter but still the same girl, laying in the exact same spot at the gym, and now, more determined than ever to continue to be better, stronger, healthier and to continue living my life- a life I almost lost due to my weight many years ago.point 416 |

Sometimes we don’t want to try something because we are afraid to fail.point 59 | We doubt ourselves before we even try and think, it’s is better not to even try that way we do not fail.point 142 | But what I say is, how will you ever know what you are capable of if you never try! That same girl who was laying on that grass, out of breathe, defeated, all red in the face and ready to quit…what would have happened if she never stood back up and kept fighting? That is something I never want to think about! If you keep trying, and if you keep standing back up, and trying your best, then you can never really fail.point 484 |

I was able to stand back up and keep fighting…and you know what? No matter what you are going through I know that you can stand back up and keep fighting too! .point 134 | .point 135 | .point 136 | .point 137 | ??????? #transformation #transformationtuesday #transformationjourney #weightlossmotivation #weightlosstransformation #weightlossmotivation #losingweight #fattofit #igweightloss #trainandtransform #obesetobeast #workforchange #effyourbeautystandards #extremeweightloss #bodypositive #selflove #plussize #mysf #sanfranciscoblogger #sanfrancisco #bodybuildingcom #onaquest #shapesquad #fitspo #fitspiration #fitnessblogger #youtubepoint 539 | 1
