I think the “all or nothing” concept is really setting you back! Eating a bite of a pizza is not “cheating” and doesn’t make you any more or less healthy. Think about your overall health and diet from a weekly/monthly perspective, rather than a daily basis. You will end up “cheating” more badly if you try so hard to prevent yourself from having those smaller “cheats”

I agree, tho everyones different. I lost 120 lbs & i did it by having one free meal a week. Not a whole day-just a meal. It didnt slow my weight loss, i still did really well, and if i was craving something like Supreme pizza or taco bell or ben n jerrys, i'd have it on sunday. Id have a smallish breakfsst, usually an egg or 2 and some turkey bacon, & dinner would be my free meal, where i ate what i wanted, within reason. A free meal was 2 or 3 slices of pizza, or lasagna & a piece of buttered bread. It wasnt the WHOLE pizza, or 2 huge servings of lasagna. This also worked when i had social events, id just make my free meal on that day and use it to have cake if there was a bday party, ect.

I agree! I was very inflamed when I started seeing a health coach last year and we focused more on adding things to my diet instead of taking things out. I’m fortunate enough that I’m not a sweets person or someone who eats chips all the time so it was very easy to not worry about those. I work out maybe twice a week and go for walks and I’m so much stronger than I was last year bc I was doing the right workouts for my body. This is the first time I’ve been consistent with working out for this long of a period of time because I never stressed myself over not working out “enough.”

Date nights dont have to be limited to food! You can go do activities together, try booking tickets to museums or look for VR expos you both can attend, even painting cafes. Tons of things to do that dont need to be revolving around eating.

I see a lot of people saying “drop the all or nothing mindset” and I just wanted to say, SHE HAS TO DO THIS HER OWN WAY. For some people the “all or nothing” mindset is the only way. I was weighting a lot in 2019 so I needed to make a change and I cut the junk food and the not so healthy food almost entirely for about 6-8 months and started exercising everyday. After that I reached a weight that I felt totally happy with and now I still eat clean but I let myself eat whatever I want when I feel like it, and I still exercise everyday. So, if the “all or nothing” works for her, just let her do that, everyone is different.

I see your point but it’s OBVIOUSLY not working for her…. You can see her binging on video! That’s why people are making those comments about dropping the “all or nothing mindset” since you can see on video that she diets, caves in, binges, gets sick, and then repeats the cycle over again. Which is an extremely unhealthy relationship with food.

Try changing “i can’t have that” to “I don’t want that” we tend to want what we can’t have. Make the conscious decision that you do not want that because it is setting you back. Remember a bite of something or one “unhealthy” meal is NOT going to make u gain weight. Eat a big salad before anything at a restaurant and if u still want the “cheat meal” then have it… most of the time the salad will fill you up and you’ll not want to eat as much of the higher calorie foods.

First I want to say I’m loving this series. But it makes me sad when you weigh yourself after a “not so good day” and it goes up and then you get upset. Weight loss or not linear and everyone’s weight fluctuates each day, even while losing weight. It is normal for it to go up and down, but the trend will be down. So if the scale going up causes you to feel bad, maybe try only weighing yourself each week. It’s so easy to become obsessed with the scale, when that’s not painting the whole picture!

I am really concerned that you’re developing a really unhealthy relationship with food - just due to the significant amount of diet culture rhetoric I’ve heard in this series. I genuinely feel for you here as I’m on a lifestyle change as well. One thing I’ve learned is that if your truly what to sustain this for a lifetime, you can’t use words like “cheat day”. Some days you will eat nutritious food, other days you may not. Eating pizza and birthday cake with your nieces are special experiences and I hope you find a way to give yourself grace and balance to do both. I highly recommend speak to a dietician if you’re truly looking to achieve balance. Best of luck to you girly ❤️

In multiples of these videos she mentions that she eats an EXTREMELY light, non-nutrient dense breakfast, eats nothing all day, and then a very light dinner. If these videos are accurate, on average she’s eating 1,000 calories a day or less.. even children are supposed to eat more than that. Her mood is fluctuating and it’s apparent that she’s developing a really unhealthy relationship with food. In her most recent episode, she openly admits that shes developed an addiction to the scale, when at first she mentioned that it wasn’t about numbers.. so clearly this overly restrictive diet is causing her a lot of mental stress and fixation on weight loss. The people in her life should be promoting balance and happiness, not crash diets or over-indulging. But in a later episode, she mentions that her mom is doing a “crazy vegetables only diet”.. so, sadly, I’m worried that some of the people around her may be perpetuating this. I’m not saying she’s wrong for wanting to lose weight.. I’m saying that this method could lead to an ED. Take it from me.. i almost ventured into binging + vomiting to maintain my weight loss before I found a nutritionist. I’m happier, healthier, and still feel good about my weight. There’s a way to do both without the mental stress.

None of the people in this seem very supportive, every time she’s like yeah I don’t need to eat that I’m feeling good they say “really, are you?”. Date night- you can still go to restaurants, Cheesecake Factory you can get one of the chicken dishes and sub the carb for another veggie, or salads. Mexican food is my favorite because the salads are usually loaded, lots of chicken or fajita dishes. chipotle with double chicken and veggies, no rice. LOTS of keto desserts that are get for “splurging”, find a local bakery so it’s not a processed. You don’t have to “miss out” just find alternatives. Lily’s chocolate bars, smart sweets gummy candy.

Love this series! As a health coach, the biggest tip I have for eating out is focusing on veggies and protein! The sneaky ingredients that can make you feel like crap at restaurants are usually in the dips, sauces and dressings. Lots of random soy, sodium, sugar and processed oils. Not saying to not get any sauce or dressing, but if you focus on getting veggies and protein & get the sauce on the side you can decide how much you want to consume! I’m a hugeee foodie and love eating but sometimes the way you feel after eating at restaurants isn’t worth it! Like you’ve said multiple times, it’s not always about weight loss it’s truly about how you feel afterward.

YES GIRLLL. lettuce w no nutrient value + processed oils and soy is not health

The WORST thing you can do is deprive yourself of things you really love to eat. Forbidden fruit is real, and deprivation just makes you want it more. The trick is to tackle the portion size, and pair it with a healthy option. You can have pizza- one slice will satisfy the craving, and maybe add a small salad to fill you up. Most of people's issues with food are mental, so you just have to play the game and retrain your brain. The key is to BE CONSISTENT with it, and soon enough, it will be a habit. Stay on your grind, but don't beat yourself up, just keep going!

That mini car monologue at 15:45 made me feel SO happy for you, Jaclyn! I've been on a self-love journey too over the past few months and I'm loving the realness but also motivation you share with us

The struggle is real, y'all. I really appreciate Jaclyn sharing her journey like this. I relate in a lot of ways. For me, it starts with empathy and compassion for myself and others. We can do this ❤️🥰

i've been working out 5x a week for 4 years now and honestly, it never gets easy. i really have to push myself to do it each and every day, but the results are always what keeps me going! you can do it!!!!!

A family member of mine struggled with alcohol addiction and when they became sober, they lost 80 pounds in 6 months. If you cut out alcohol you will see such a big difference! I love watching your journey, keep going you got this!

I was gonna comment this !! Alcohol really messes with hormones and stalls weight loss ,even if it’s low cal alcohol .

I would love to see less food demonization and more recognition of what portion control and calorie deficits can do for you. It takes time and you will get there, you just have to keep going ❤️❤️❤️ i am so proud of you for starting and documenting this journey.

Honestly just loving this shift in content ❤️keep going girl ❤️

“Date night” for my husband and me is actually when we wake up in the morning and go for a run or walk together with no child (she’s at grandma and grandpa’s). We prefer date mornings instead of nights 😊

Self love to me is honoring my hunger and satiety cues. It's no longer restricting myself to the point where it feels like torture. I no longer label foods good or bad - they're just food. I can relate to what you're going through Jaclyn because I've been there and tbh, restriction caused me to binge more and my eating became even more disordered. I do hope your journey is different than mine with dieting/restriction and you are able to find balance

I’m literally bing watching this series! It’s very motivating thank you for being so honest and putting yourself out there! This is great!!!

the strenght, vulnerability, and love you exemplify.... its almost unreal!!!! so, incredible. I appreciate you and ill support you forever n ever babyjac

I’m loving this self journey vlog series 🥰

So proud of you! Keep up the great work! Think about how fast a month can go by and where you’ll be before you know it! It’s SO worth it! As far as the scale, everyone fluctuates throughout the day. Maybe weigh yourself every week or two instead? That way you never feel discouraged when it could just be water weight or whatever:) I’m excited for u!

Don’t trust the scale, it’s not an accurate way to see the weight loss. What matters is that you feel really good and physically see the difference, like when you fit into those jeans. You got this, I love you!

I agree with this too! I’ve lost weight before and during that time I never looked at the scale. It was about how I felt and saw myself

Ughhh I literally just started watching your channel and I’m obsessed with your journey! You are making me want to get back into my healthy lifestyle! You are beautiful inside and out, you go girl!❤️🥰

I genuinely look forward to these videos each week. You’re doing everything right Jaclyn- don’t be so hard on yourself!! The hardest part is when you’re surrounded by people not on the same health journey as you. It can be so hard to be strict with yourself when you’re the only one on this major lifestyle change! It will get easier but don’t so hard on yourself :)

My husband and I love to go hiking-it’s free, no food, and you’re getting exercise! I also love hiking because it’s a great coping skill when my anxiety is bad. Definitely recommend and you’re lucky to be in an area where you don’t have to stop hiking in the winter!

Love this series and is so inspiring seeing the difference you see within just one week of “no cheating”. But as you said to be hard on you… I challenge you to “throw out” your scale. Have Jordan track your progress weight on a notepad but cover the number so it’s out of sight out of mind but can look back months later to see the actual numbers!! I know you say you try not to obsess but it’s human nature to obsess over the #s!!! You’ve got this and can’t wait for future episodes 💪🏼🤎

Progress photos are so much more useful! I had to submit weekly photos to my coach when I was on a program and it was so helpful to see the changes in my body even when the scale wasn’t moving much. Sometimes the scale lies.

If this girl says “cheat meal” or “i cheated” again ima get on a plane to florida and slap her 💀 baby girl pleaasseee switch that mindset! You can do it ✨✨✨ im so here for Jaclyn developing a healthy relationship with food

Thank you for being so vulnerable and honest. I support you and recognize your effort.

So proud of you for not using the parties as an excuse to have “one bite”! That’s a huge feat!!

Jaclyn, I love how REAL your weight loss content is. Cause when you're dieting/losing weight, your weight is 100% fluctuating for a little bit even though you might be losing overall. Makes me feel so much better about my own journey, love this content

Love you Jaclyn! I am an OG follower and you have inspired me so much over the years. From makeup to style and now to living a healthier life and taking more care of myself. I really appreciate all the effort you put into the content you make for us and I'm so excited for your new journey. I'm here for you all the way!!! ❤❤❤❤

I find your journey so inspiring! Thanks for posting all the real life moments.

Crying, your journey has brought back so many memories for me with my journey. I used to weigh 300 pounds, I now weigh 145. I’m so happy for you jaclyn, because I know what this journey is like & I know the happiness and confidence that is going to continue to flood into your being these next few months. YESSSSSSSSSSS 💖✨💖✨💖✨

I’ve never been so invested in a series like this. I just love how open you are about everything and just seeing you be proud of yourself along this journey. I love seeing how much progress you have made ❤️

So proud of you!! When I struggle to find motivation to go to the gym after an exhausting day working at the hospital, my sick patients remind me of what a privilege it is to be able to move my body, and how important it is to get into exercise habits while I’m young. Health is such a blessing, so I want to show appreciation for it by maintaining it, and build strength and physical/mental endurance so I can be the best nurse possible. You’ve got this!!

Jaclyn I’m so so proud of you, keep going we’re in this together! ❤️❤️

I am so glad that you're normalizing how difficult it is to lose weight. I have had so many fit, thin people in my life tell me "just don't eat as much" or "exercise more." They just don't understand the struggle. I always say, trying to lose weight is the hardest thing I've ever done. You're doing a great job and you're very motivating! Keep it up!

I love how you’re happy for your family having fun and celebrating rather than judging them ❤️

Jaclyn, I wanted to take a moment to thank you so much for doing these videos. I am so grateful for you sharing your real life struggles with food, exercise, self love, etc. I listen to your videos when I'm at the gym. I appreciate you!

I completely agree! This series is so relatable! 💜

you're being such a big motivation for me, thank you for being so real.

This was my favorite video of the series so far. I literally felt your happiness when you started seeing results. Consistency brings progress. Don't give up girl. You've got this!

Please please please stop weighing yourself. Throughout this video, you weighed yourself 3 times in 1 week. Your body fluctuates with weight daily...especially if you were on your period. You hit the nail on the head when you said that you feel like your clothes are fitting better...go with that instead. You are doing so well ❤❤❤

So proud of you Jaclyn!❤️ Please don't be so hard on yourself, everything will get better slowly just trust the process. Sending lots of love😘

I appreciate showing the genuine struggle that we ALL have when it comes to trying to eat healthy!

“That’s not my journey and I’m happy for others” is KEY!!! We are so proud of you

This is the realest I’ve ever seen you & I’m actually genuinely interested in your upcoming videos. Keep up the good work! :)

I have been binging these and it made me grocery shop and meal prep ON A SATURDAY NIGHT! Thank you for sharing!!!!

I’m so proud of you!!! It’s so great you are documenting this so you can go back to these moments and remember how great you feel when you stick to the goals you set for yourself! Always remember, food will always be there. It’s not going anywhere but taking care of your health is most important! We are rooting for you and on your side 🤍

You’ve been my motivation every morning for the last three weeks to get to the gym. I’ve stayed away from all the inner aisles of the grocery store where all the processed calorie bombs are and I literally have felt so amazing. At the 15 minute mark of this video before you said you could feel your results, you were radiating healthy energy so hard. Thank you for putting your journey out there for all of us to support and grow with you. ❤️

Portioning helped me soooo much!! I still got to eat what I wanted but I would pick and choose what I ate to either maintain my calories or eat at a deficit!! When going out to eat or hanging out with my friends I would make sure I eat light all day before going out and then picking out the healthier choices! Doing a lifestyle change is so hard and giving yourself grace is so important!! Either way I’m so proud of you and being so strong!!!!

I love how honest & real you are & are showing us the real you.You’re so generous having all of those sugary snacks for your nieces in the house!

I firmly believe Jaclyn will reach her goal & even surpass her self expectations. I honestly do. Every time I watch "Jaclyn's Journey" I just think "Keep going. You WILL be so proud. You're going to look back at these videos & probably laugh at how hard it felt. All while feeling confident, healthy & hot AF 🔥" I'm so excited for your future self 🥂💙

I see such a difference in your face! It's such a transformation from the beginning of the week. You've got this, girl!

Jaclyn you just inspired me to buckle down and really commit to my journey. Thank you.

Keep it going Jaclyn, I used to hate working out and all of this, but when you get to the point of feeling and seeing that progress, you want it so much more and all of this becomes a second nature.

Watching this makes me so emotional because I know exactly what you’re feeling.. it sucks but it’s all going to be worth it at the end remember sacrifice is not a punishment.. sacrifice creates paradise!

So proud of you for sticking with this for YOU! With each victory, it gets easier and easier. You have a wonderful support system and that is so important! Have you found a good cookbook that has good anti-inflammatory recipes?

Oooooooo... you said some powerful words there! "Going back to my foundation." Yessss!! It's okay to ease up every once in a while, but establish yourself in that foundation! When you slip up, or maybe just make the choice to eat something you usually wouldn't, immediately return to that foundation. If you want to keep building a bigger, better, stronger you, a good solid foundation is everything!

This series is amazing. You’re the realest and so many of us related. I love seeing this glimpse into your life! You have a ton of people in your corner girl. You got this

I’m so glad you’re doing this series because it helps me out a lot. I’m also in my healthy life style journey and watching you motivates me! Thank you

I struggled for the longest with my weight loss and currently still in my own journey as well. I think what really worked best for me was HIIT exercises while still incorporating weightlifting. The gym has always been an anxiety triggering place to me and I am finally getting comfortable and enjoying it. I also did a challenge called 75 HARD, it is pretty strict but I think that is what helped me when it came to alcohol and I felt so accomplished after the 75 days. Im so happy for you and I wish you the best in your journey!! You got this!!

Im so confident you will rech the place you want to be in, and I'm just so excited 🥰

I would love to see Jordan make all the healthier recipes he’s cooking you!
