Η Jacqueline, ήταν παχύσαρκη για πολλά χρόνια. Κάποια στιγμή αποφάσισε μαζί με τον επίσης υπέρβαρο σύντροφό της να αλλάξουν ζωή και να ξεκινήσουν δίαιτα. Έχασαν και οι δυο πολλά κιλά. Η 30χρονη γυναίκα έχασε 159 ολόκληρα κιλά αλλά όταν αποφάσισε να βάλει μαγιό μετά από χρόνια, έζησε μια άσχημη εμπειρία την οποία μοιράστηκε με τους χιλιάδες followers της στο instagram.
Λόγω της απώλειας πολλών κιλών το δέρμα της χαλάρωσε με αποτέλεσμα να έχει μια αντιαισθητική εικόνα. Η Jacquelin, περιέγραψε πόσο άσχημα ένιωσε όταν φορώντας το μαγιό της και πηγαίνοντας προς την πισίνα για να βουτήξει, είδε ένα ζευγάρι να την κοιτάει να την κοροϊδεύει και να γελάει μαζί της. Και μπορεί να ένιωσε άσχημα αλλά δήλωσε πως δεν το βάζει κάτω, πως κανείς δεν ξέρει πόσα πέρασε για να χάσει όλα αυτά τα κιλά αλλά και πόσο πόνο άντεξε από τις απανωτές διορθωτικές επεμβάσεις! Έδωσε έτσι το δικό της μήνυμα που είναι απλό και σημαντικό!” Αγάπα τον εαυτό σου¨”!
Confidence does not happen over night. Learning to love yourself, take care of yourself and not worry about what others think is hard to do. For me, even after losing 350 pounds, I still sometimes struggle with all of the old emotions that used to fill my head. Will they laugh at me? Will they like me? How do I look to them? Will they make fun of me or call me “fat”? I felt so ready to rock this bathing suit and not care what others thought about me because I was happy and I was proud of myself. When I got down to the pool…something else happened. I did not want to take my cover up off. Those same thoughts and doubts and lack of confidence and self esteem came rushing through me, and I would have rather done anything but take that cover up off. I walked to the edge of the pool, cover up still on, and I froze. I almost said “screw it I’m not going swimming.” And at that same moment when I decided I could not take my cover up off, it felt like someone slapped me in the face and said “just get in”. So that’s exactly what I did! This photo is the first time in over 5 years that I went into a public pool, without pants or a shirt covering me and just jumped right in! Change does not happen overnight! But we must fight to overcome our fears, self doubt and learn to love and accept ourselves just as we are! Who cares what others think! What matters is what we think and how we feel about ourselves! I worked too hard to not feel confidant in a bathing suit and to not jump right in! So jump in guys! Life is too short to keep sitting on the sidelines!! . . . . #jacquelineadan #jacquelinesjourney #fattofit #bodybuilding #bodybuildingcom #bodypositive #bodyposi #mondaymotivation #extremeweightloss #noexcuses #losingweight #weightloss #weightlosssupport #weightlosscommunity #beforeandafter #beforeandafterweightloss #weightlosstransformation #weightlossbeforeandafter #weightlossblogger #onaquest #fit #fitspo #motivationmonday #perfectlyimperfect #fitfam #fitspiration #fitness #workoutmotivation #effyourbeautystandards

#tbt to about a week ago when I was trying on a bathing suit for the first time in a looonng time! This was especially challenging since I had to find one with sleeves. While on vacation I am trying my best to keep my incisions covered and away from the sunlight, since the sun can make scaring worse! So when I found a bathing suit with sleeves I told myself “you have to try it on”. I was filled with so many emotions as I tried this on. As I looked at myself in the mirror, for the first time I did not worry about my legs, what my body looked like in a bathing suit or what other people would think of me. I saw someone who worked damn hard to get to this place, this exact moment. I was debating sharing this photo, but I asked myself “why wouldn’t you?” So…that’s exactly what I am doing! My journey is far from over, however being able to try on a bathing suit, share it with all of you, and be PROUD of how I look..that is what counts! Love yourself…always!!! . . . . #jacquelineadan #jacquelinesjourney #fattofit #bodybuilding #bodybuildingcom #bodypositive #bodyposi #goals #extremeweightloss #noexcuses #losingweight #weightloss #weightlosssupport #weightlosscommunity #beforeandafter #beforeandafterweightloss #weightlosstransformation #weightlossbeforeandafter #weightlossblogger #onaquest #fit #fitspo #obesetobeast #perfectlyimperfect #fitfam #fitspiration #fitness #workoutmotivation #effyourbeautystandards
