I don’t know why, but this is like one of my favorite videos she’s ever posted! I love the vlog style. Getting real and vulnerable about the friend thing, about FOOD, money, and how you help the people in your life. I loved this!! So happy for you Jaclyn.
People don’t get sick from magical flying Boogey germs. They DEVELOP the “illness” following the resolution of the upsetting event that caused it. Just like they DEVELOP cancer. If you can’t “catch” cancer, you can’t “catch” anything else. The Germ Theory has been fraud for 110 years. Repeating it over and over does not make it true.
I lost my best friend of 16 years after setting boundaries and I still think about her every single day. This was almost 10 years ago now. But you have to trust yourself and stick to those boundaries girl! I know it's hard, but it's the right thing... You've got this
Jaclyn I used to struggle with my friendships until I also started my health journey, that includes my physical, emotional, mental and spiritual health. I lost people along the way, but now I am so grateful I did. I just always remember this quote “You attract who you are”, when I was negative and miserable I has those people around me. But when I started having clarity and so much love for myself, I notice that I only surround myself with positive, kind and uplifting people. That quote is so true😊
Please never stop these, they are the most inspiring things to watch!! 15 months sober this last Sunday, and I’m forcing myself to take a class alone this Friday❤️
It’s not talked about enough, but truly healing and working on yourself isn’t just a new skin care routine or going to the gym or all the ways it’s romanticized now. It’s losing friends when you outgrow those relationships and mourning another loss even when it’s necessary. It’s remembering horrible moments and processing those emotions even when you thought you were “over it”. It’s so awful at times but it is so worth it when you realize one day that you are in a healthy space with yourself regardless of the world around you. ❤
It’s absolutely the hardest to mourn the life and friends you once had. That’s growth ❤ this is what people don’t want to talk about. Thank you for being transparent.
Oh girl this breaks my heart. Friendship breakups are so real and they hurt so bad. Give yourself a moment to grieve that friend ship loss, but let it be your reminder to cherish the ones who are still present 🩷🩷 love you sm!!!
One thing that stuck with me since starting my ‘self improvement’ journey has been motivation sets your goals but discipline makes them happen. Keep making those hard decisions! I love seeing you so happy and motivated❤🥹
Im in the same situation as she is! I feel so depressed seeing all the people on socials having sooooo many friends and I feel so alone because I don’t have that many friends …
March 3rd was 16 yrs in recovery for me and I was hard core drug addict. The people who “fell away” when I got into recovery I realized was a blessing in disguise. Did it hurt at first, of course. But people are placed in our lives for many different reasons and sometimes seasons, not all of them are meant to be around forever. I look at each person that has ever been in my life or that comes into my life is there to teach me something .. and we can always learn and grow. It’s totally ok to mourn the loss of those “friends” even therapeutic but it’s important to bounce back and look at the present for the ones you do have and the future at the potential for the ones you could meet. Keep your head up. And I’m proud of you bc I know being in that concert setting with all those people and not giving into that demon was hard.. you got this💪🏼💛✨
As a long time follower myself, meeting you in your “true self” form would be the best way to meet you! These videos are always inspiring, keep being yourself🤍
I had a “friend” that literally would order the most expensive thing on the menu because she knew I always would pick up the bill. I threw her off last time and told the server we were paying separate, we haven’t been out since.😂
If I know someone else is paying I will intentionally order the cheapest thing. I don’t understand how people are so comfortable taking advantage of people
I had the same issue when quitting heroin which made my prediabetes turn full diabetes, screwed up my feet irreparably, but now at least lost 100lbs (bariatric surgery), and no more diabetes! You got a lot going for you babe… you’ll be fine sugar or not ❤
You can cure yourself of diabetes?? I had no idea. I’m currently in the prediabetic range and I’m still dumb and haven’t been watching what I’m eating. So I’m scared that it will progress to full blown diabetes. I didn’t know you could reverse it once you have it!
@@emmakate6518when you can’t inject in the veins in your arm anymore from long term use, people move to veins in other parts of their body - the feet being one of them. you could probably imagine what that would do to your feet overtime
I’ve been through this journey. When you better yourself, you outgrow people. It’s a part people don’t talk about when you start a healing/healthier lifestyle. It IS lonely. Then you meet people who are on the same vibration as you. Ones that know and grow with you. ALSO! It’s okay to have days you eat “crap”! Everything in moderation!! YOU GOT THIS. ❤
I'm sorry. It hurts losing friends that you never knew truly weren't your friends. It's heartbreaking but you know it. You are better off. Your heart will mend and learn. It's very nice to see your doing so well!!! I'm enjoying your journey. ❤
Loved this - it's so important to bring light to the shame we feel when we 'slip up' because watching this, I found myself saying "girl go easy on yourself! everyone slips up, your body needed rest, don't let shame drive you' and it just reminded me that we should be saying those things to *ourselves* when we go through the ups and downs of healing and wellness.
Ily girl! I am a hair colorist and I would LOVE to transform your hair from black to a chocolate brown! I think it would soften your look a little and add to your beauty! It would be a subtle change but it would be amazing! I love it red, black or any color - but an all over medium chocolate brown would be chefs kiss ❤❤❤
I’m so beyond proud of you. Also been watching 10+ years. Not only are you empowering yourself with your decision, habits, and thoughts you are empowering us your viewers. Thank you!!!💛💛💛
Being sober is the most isolating choice sometimes. I don't miss alcohol, at all. I miss the friends I had when I was messy, but I came to the realization that I am WORTH getting sober for. I think you realized it too. I am so PROUD of you, being sober is hard. I pray that God continues to bless you on this path you're on. Healing yourself from the trauma of addiction is the best thing you can do for yourself, for Jordan and any of your future kids. Love you JH!
im so glad i found these videos, thank you for sharing your journey. its lonely not drinking in a booze-fueled world sometimes, but its so worth it. i just passed 1 year and didnt know my life and body could turn around for the better this much. its worth it.
I have a masters in biology and research has shown that sugar is as addictive as drugs. A study was done by monitoring people during an MRI, who are given sugar, and in patients who had sugar vs in active drug users, the pleasure pathway in the brain (VTA) lights up. Sugar is definitely addictive
your struggle really hits home, I'm on my sober journey with you and I'm going through the same problems. You're not alone sis, your OG fam is here growing with you. ♥️
I'm really sorry you are hurting about losing people. The one thing I have learned that helps is that people are in our lives for a reason, a season or a lifetime. It can suck figuring it out but trust the universe babe, you are better off♡
Never wanted to reach through a screen to hug someone so badly. Thank you for being vulnerable. I think so many others can relate and it’s sad yet comforting to know we aren’t alone in our own journeys.
You are such an inspiration. I’m going through my own journey and I love that you are focusing on all health as well, not just quick unhealthy weight loss. I appreciate your humor and realness. You look amazing and ARE amazing. Your vulnerability is the thing I like the most about you. :) Keep up the amazing work you are doing.
I'm so proud of you for being open and raw about your addiction. When you first talked about it, I was also a serious alcoholic but no one knew. I feel so encouraged by your journey. I'm not fully sober yet, but I'm trying to be soon❤
I’m sorry you have lost friends, but they truly were not your friends ….the journey you are on now will bring you true friends…and crying is cleansing…I wish you so much happiness.
Oh honey I went through the same thing regarding friends. I don’t know if you read these comments but I want you to know that it’s so hard to lose people and it’s extremely lonely at times but it’s worth it. It’s been almost 5 years since I woke up and lost almost everyone in my life but now I have people that I KNOW truly love me. I wish I could give you a big hug 🥰 keep crushing it!!
For me going keto cured my alcohol addictions and cravings. I went psycho for a week then boom it was all gone. Looking back I was always a sugar/alcohol addict. Fight it girl!

Protecting your peace is so important and it’s lonely.. I’ve lost family and friends because of it but we don’t need that toxicity in our lives.. ❤❤ continue on your path, you got this!❤
I feel like seeing people struggle isn't entertainment for me personally. It is relatable. It helps me feel more comfortable with my own struggles and helps me to feel normal. As a former addict I too have had my struggles with sugar. Thank you for your honesty and transparency. ❤
Love this kind of format it’s you it’s grown and I’m obsessed with it. I’m 30 and have been watching you since I was about 20 so I love the growth of shoes for comfort haha. I’m a mom now but I’m still me. I am obsessed with your fashion can you do a video about outfits for us women in our 30’s who love trends but also know we are not 16 anymore lol. Sending you love and grace. Thanks for the inspo to work out today haha
There’s nothing more amazing than your journey. Witnessing you transform through sobriety and dedication to yourself and your health, peace, etc.. is just wonderful. I’m approaching 2 years of sobriety and have been tempted through so many moments of thinking I’m in a better place mentally so why not, or missing how easy it was to “relax” or “laugh” with a glass of wine. But it’s that little voice saying, “but you gave it up for a reason, and you have so much to be proud of yourself for through that journey” that makes me just let go of the thought. And it’s not easy, but you’re doing amazing.
I relate to this SO much!! The crappy eating, drinking to avoid social anxiety, fatigue and brain fog…ALL of it!! You are NOT alone but keep up the fight ✊🏻✊🏻
I know exactly how that friend struggle is. My love language is giving and when I started setting boundaries and focusing on my own health, I turned around and only a few were there. It does hurt, but the ones who stayed are the real deal!
Girl your journey has inspired me to go back to the gym and get in shape for my wedding which is still 2.5 years away. But, it’s also for myself and my mental health! Thank you so much🥰
I’ve been following you for 10+ years now and just cried with you. Friend breakups are 100% real, I have friend breakups that have hurt me more than romantic ones. You are amazing and deserve better from others 💚
This video was so inspiring, despite your struggles, because we all have them. I hope you know how strong you are and even in the midst of losing friendships you remember that if they decide to walk away because of healthy choices you’re making, that they don’t deserve a friendship with you because they aren’t standing beside you with their support. We love you so much! ❤️ thank you for being you, Jaclyn.
I totally understand how you feel!!! I have never had a friend put into me what I put into them. It really hurts when you pour yourself into the people you love and you don’t even get a 16th back.. love you Jaclyn❤️❤️❤️
Literally why I love you! I’ve been watching your videos since the beginning and you’re always so real! Thank you for sharing so much! You’re doing amazing!
I was eating cookie sprinkles bc I had no other “sugar” in my pantry 😢 I was craving a sweet treat . I felt gross and threw them away and transitioning to healthy natural sugar options
Jaclyn thank you so much for ALWAYS being real & vulnerable since day 1. You’re truly THAT GIRL. PRETTY PLEASE give us an updated Jax Snacks videos bc your snacks have been staples in my life. Also need your perfume recs because I still have Outremer Vanille because of you ❤
Self Healing and losing friends is part of the journey. I lost a lot of friends too and saw true colors. I decided my life is better without them. I don’t have many friends just a lot of acquaintances. I just hit my 30 days of sobriety. You’re amazing Jaclyn I’ve been following you for many years && you’ve grown so much as an individual and I am super proud of you. Keep your head up. Keep stepping forward. Your journey and your healing is alll for you. ❤
Yes. You're NOT alone. I struggle too. Food, giving everything away, being taken for granted, used. I'm now working on ME. I realized when I tell them no, after all I do, they call me a jerk. Healing ourselves isn't selfish, it's needed. After turning 45 this year, I'm working on me. Great video. TY. I'm done too. No more allowing others or food dictate me.
❤😊I feel your pain about losing friends (& for me family too!). I've learned that the people you're there for, will not necessarily be thevone who'll be there for you. When you're there for someone you literally have to be genuine and so it expecting NOTHING in return. 🎉People only fail us when we have expectations of them.😊 we can't expect others to be who we are. I started losing people as I drew closer to the Lord. Not ONE regret!❤
THIS WAS BY FAR MY MOST FAVORITE VIDEO YOU HAVE DONE IN YEARS AND YEARS MAYBE EVER!!!! YOU CAN SEE HOW PROUD YOU ARE OF YOURSELF!!!! I LOVE IT!!! TALKING ABOUT YOUR FEARS AND REAL LIFE SHIT IS AMAZING!!!
Proud of you girl. Losing a friend is so painful and something not talked about enough. The best friends I've lost were soul crushing, but it's like you said, it's a relationship that needed to end. I've been here from the beginning and I know from watching you all these years how invested you are in your people. No one would ever argue you're not a good friend. And also, as a long time follower, I would be SO stoked to meet you in person I would never care what you looked like lol but proud of you for getting out of your comfort zone and doing things that are hard for you like shopping alone. You're AMAZING!
I am refinding you after years and am cheering you on each video! You remind me so much of your older videos where you are so positive and inspired! Keep going girl, not only do you look great, you are radiating!
Jaclyn, I love you so much! I feel like I do so much for my friends and I now truly only have one friend. You have inspired me to do better for myself as well. After this weekend I had a horrible reaction to alcohol, to where my body hurt physically and I told my husband that I was just done with alcohol! I love watching your journey especially being an OG subscriber!
You’re amazing and have a heart of gold .. and the people that don’t appreciate you or want to remove themselves for your life let them walk away . They weren’t meant to be there . The journey to where you go need to be might be lonely but the true diamonds in your life that truly care about you will always be there , and continue to love you / be your rock no matter what.
You’re my favorite human. Really tho. Everything about you is goals (personality, energy, work ethics, ambition, determination, support, generosity, love in your heart, your kindess, greatfulness ect …I could go on for days) . Your awesome girl!
You cut out one addiction and get a dopamine hit from something else, that’s a transfer addiction. I know bc I’ve struggled with this in the past and it’s not easy, but you’ve recognized it so it’s a first step. Praying for you that it gets easier for you on this journey! I’m rooting for you, and also for Jordan on his next level chef journey!
Honestly going through the weight loss journey myself. Struggle is real. I’ve tried meal prepping in the past and it just wasn’t sticking. This time around I’m committed and it helps that I’m finished with graduate school and have a WHOLE day to prep. My relationships journey started about 8 years ago. Opened the Bible daily and started running habitually. Not sure why but EVERYTHING I opened the Bible to resonated so hard that it helped guide me into a healthier and happier life . Happy to have let go of the toxic ppl that didn’t have my best interests at heart. You’re doing great 👌
Your journey feels so warm and positive, as a long time follower the parasocial in me is so happy that you are doing good and taking care of yourself, I am and always will be inspired by your strength and bravery❤
I haven’t even watched the entire video, I just got to the part where you’re talking about friendships and it’s heartbreaking. I’m so sorry you’ve had to go through this. Sending you big, giant, warm hugs.
Ugh can totally relate to losing friends once you start doing well and trying to get your shit together. Or even going through rough shit and then getting it together and they all disappear once you set boundaries and realize you’re giving so much but that energy isn’t reciprocated. It’s hard ❤ you got this girl!
What helped me shift my eating habits was realizing it affects my anxiety. I have an anxiety disorder and I didn’t realize how much sugar, processed food, caffeine, etc was contributing to inflammation in my body, rapid heart beat, etc. My anxiety was terrible my whole life UNTIL I started making better food choices!! Now I look up foods that help manage anxiety and do that. :) also magnesium and l-theanine supplements!
And it also helps to think about it this way because I used to go on random diets before for the sake of being “healthy” but would undereat or just eat salads. I didn’t know what I was doing. This shift gives me a purpose to continue and isn’t like a “chore” to do or whatever.
You needed that cry and you might need to cry it out again sooner or later but it’s great to grieve I promise you won’t always cry so hard over those past friendships and you’ll be so much better 🤍
You’re so inspiring!! My Dr told me I need to lose weight because my cholesterol is high, really high, and she doesn’t want to put me on cholesterol meds bc I’m too young. I am where you were in this vid of having too much artificial sugar and sweets. That’s what I’ve been addicted to my whole life. Ugh. It’s been so hard to stop all that! I really appreciate your candidness and it’s been super helpful in my journey. Thank you!!
I’m late watching! But ugh the friendship breakup really got to me! I felt like crying with you jac, I grieve so hard for those friendships I’ve lost more than an actual relationship breakup! It feels so lonely after loosing those friends that you thought would be forever 😢 I’m grateful to have my husband, I tell him he’s my only true friend! Thank you for making this video, I need to learn from you that it’s okay to go alone to the mall, our to eat, etc, it’s so important to prioritize you, love you girl 💓
I am so impressed and inspired by you!! Im working on getting that "show up for me and do what needs to be done" mindset and the words you're laying down, I'm totally picking up!! Thank you for sharing your journey!! You are SO STRONG!!
What I have learned is that the people who are your real friends are the people who are there for you during the hard times. You are so strong and I hope that you cherish the people around you who do love you
My heart aches for you. I was in a car accident that has left me disabled due to chronic pain. A LOT of my friends left. I'm no longer able to do the things I use to do I had to give up my amazing career. I dont have the extra cash to be generous with anymore. I truly understand your grief. I pray God fills your life with beautiful souls that bless you. If you ever come to Oklahoma City. You've got a friend. You are looking AMAZING with your makeup off!! You're skin is glowing.
I feel you, losing friends are like going through a break up. I've been in so many bad friendships and it's so hard to find the good people that will be there for you when you're down.
Since being on the sober journey for the past almost 5 months. I have a noticed that the people who are in my circle are no longer. I do grieve, the friendships that I used to have but also enjoy my own company and the journey that I'm going on. please give yourself some grace and know that you're healing for the better.
I'm so proud of you, Jaclyn! Going to a concert with your nieces and not drinking is a fantastic thing for you to do, not only good for you but also for your nieces. I love you, Jaclyn, so very much. You are an inspiration to me. Sending hugs hugs🩷🐈🐈⬛🐶🐴🐎🩷
This is SO RELATABLE! I am over here drinking my ice water like, "Yeah, been there. Op, been there." Thank you for sharing and normalizing the struggles, it gets so lonely sometimes. ❤
I’m a recent follower of Jaclyn and I recently started binging all of her videos. Anyway, to hear that Jaclyn was constantly paying for her “friends” and putting their needs before her own is honestly really heartbreaking. It sounds like Jaclyn was constantly lighting herself on fire just to keep everyone else warm… 🥺
This is one of the best videos You’ve ever done! I love the og days but it use to be so rare to get a sneak peek into your daily life and I just love how real it is

Girl!!! I am SO SO PROUD of you! It is not easy doing what you are doing! I have watched you for years (8-10). You’ve got this. It is HARD but if it wasn’t hard it wouldn’t be progress and worth it… love you 😘 God bless and take care of your beautiful self 💕
So proud and happy that you filmed all of this…you are a true inspiration to us all! I have been watching you for 10+ years and will continue to follow you and support you until I no longer walk this earth. We must take care of ourselves first, because we only get one spin around this world. ❤❤❤❤❤
Damn gurl, Jaclyn! How you can stand in front of that camera after doing a lot of people SOO DIRTY is BEYOND my understanding! NOT a fan and will NEVER be one!!!!!! HELL NOOOO!!!
I’m not kidding this gave me so much motivation to clean my house while watching! All those real real and raw thoughts about not wanting to but doing it because it makes you feel better and to push through! Thank you for this motivation girl we all needed this
I also stopped caffeine cuz I was having that same crash and feeling awful. It's a night and day difference!! I couldn't believe it. Decaf only for me bc I really do love coffee
Sending you love! I have always been the “mother” of the group and when I had my daughter the people who I thought were my ride or die disappeared! I have had two friends who stuck with me and it hurt but I’m so thankful for them!
God removed you from a table where you used to sit, in order to save you from a host who was serving you poison. Cry those tears and feel that hurt and then know you are covered by God.

I have a masters in biology and research has shown that sugar is as addictive as drugs. A study was done by monitoring people during an MRI, who are given sugar, and in patients who had sugar vs in active drug users, the pleasure pathway in the brain (VTA) lights up. Sugar is definitely addictive
you don't need a masters in biology to know that lol
your struggle really hits home, I'm on my sober journey with you and I'm going through the same problems. You're not alone sis, your OG fam is here growing with you. ♥️
I'm really sorry you are hurting about losing people. The one thing I have learned that helps is that people are in our lives for a reason, a season or a lifetime. It can suck figuring it out but trust the universe babe, you are better off♡
Never wanted to reach through a screen to hug someone so badly. Thank you for being vulnerable. I think so many others can relate and it’s sad yet comforting to know we aren’t alone in our own journeys.
I love that your choosing the hard choices when it’s so easy to give in and make bad decisions. That is true growth
You are such an inspiration. I’m going through my own journey and I love that you are focusing on all health as well, not just quick unhealthy weight loss. I appreciate your humor and realness. You look amazing and ARE amazing. Your vulnerability is the thing I like the most about you. :) Keep up the amazing work you are doing.
It’s common to substitute one thing to another addiction . Glad ur sharing honestly !!
Came to say the same
❤
Addictive personality, I cut drinking and next I’m wanting all the sweets. 🤦♀️
I'm so proud of you for being open and raw about your addiction. When you first talked about it, I was also a serious alcoholic but no one knew. I feel so encouraged by your journey. I'm not fully sober yet, but I'm trying to be soon❤
I’m sorry you have lost friends, but they truly were not your friends ….the journey you are on now will bring you true friends…and crying is cleansing…I wish you so much happiness.
Love that your putting yourself in situations that will eventually happen. It’s a faster way of getting back to “normal”
Oh honey I went through the same thing regarding friends. I don’t know if you read these comments but I want you to know that it’s so hard to lose people and it’s extremely lonely at times but it’s worth it. It’s been almost 5 years since I woke up and lost almost everyone in my life but now I have people that I KNOW truly love me. I wish I could give you a big hug 🥰 keep crushing it!!
For me going keto cured my alcohol addictions and cravings. I went psycho for a week then boom it was all gone. Looking back I was always a sugar/alcohol addict. Fight it girl!
I second this
❤
Keto gave my friend fatty liver disease
@@aliciyamc3071 This is circumstantial. It will only develop if the ratio of the protein and carb consumption is fats>protein within the macros, below 30g carbs in total. If you continue with protein>fats and consume zero seed or vegetable oils, you should not develop fatty liver disease.
@@aliciyamc3071 hard to say it was directly from keto. My blood work is perfect and I had high cholesterol and low iron before….
Protecting your peace is so important and it’s lonely.. I’ve lost family and friends because of it but we don’t need that toxicity in our lives.. ❤❤ continue on your path, you got this!❤
Thank you for being so raw and open with us! Makes me feel better about my journey struggles knowing I’m not the only one ❤❤ love you!
I feel like seeing people struggle isn't entertainment for me personally. It is relatable. It helps me feel more comfortable with my own struggles and helps me to feel normal. As a former addict I too have had my struggles with sugar. Thank you for your honesty and transparency. ❤
Love this kind of format it’s you it’s grown and I’m obsessed with it. I’m 30 and have been watching you since I was about 20 so I love the growth of shoes for comfort haha. I’m a mom now but I’m still me. I am obsessed with your fashion can you do a video about outfits for us women in our 30’s who love trends but also know we are not 16 anymore lol. Sending you love and grace. Thanks for the inspo to work out today haha
There’s nothing more amazing than your journey. Witnessing you transform through sobriety and dedication to yourself and your health, peace, etc.. is just wonderful. I’m approaching 2 years of sobriety and have been tempted through so many moments of thinking I’m in a better place mentally so why not, or missing how easy it was to “relax” or “laugh” with a glass of wine. But it’s that little voice saying, “but you gave it up for a reason, and you have so much to be proud of yourself for through that journey” that makes me just let go of the thought. And it’s not easy, but you’re doing amazing.
this is the most relatable video I've watched from you! 🥺 grieving friendships that no longer serve you is SO PAINFUL :(
KEEP GOING DUDE!
I relate to this SO much!! The crappy eating, drinking to avoid social anxiety, fatigue and brain fog…ALL of it!! You are NOT alone but keep up the fight ✊🏻✊🏻
Ok but girl you look so good! 😭 Not just your makeup, but you look so healthy and glowy ✨ what blush are you wearing in the beginning of this video? 💗
I know exactly how that friend struggle is. My love language is giving and when I started setting boundaries and focusing on my own health, I turned around and only a few were there. It does hurt, but the ones who stayed are the real deal!
Girl your journey has inspired me to go back to the gym and get in shape for my wedding which is still 2.5 years away. But, it’s also for myself and my mental health! Thank you so much🥰
I am so lucky to be able to be part of your journey! Thanks for being here!
❤
I’ve been following you for 10+ years now and just cried with you. Friend breakups are 100% real, I have friend breakups that have hurt me more than romantic ones. You are amazing and deserve better from others 💚
This video was so inspiring, despite your struggles, because we all have them. I hope you know how strong you are and even in the midst of losing friendships you remember that if they decide to walk away because of healthy choices you’re making, that they don’t deserve a friendship with you because they aren’t standing beside you with their support. We love you so much! ❤️ thank you for being you, Jaclyn.
I totally understand how you feel!!! I have never had a friend put into me what I put into them. It really hurts when you pour yourself into the people you love and you don’t even get a 16th back.. love you Jaclyn❤️❤️❤️
Literally why I love you! I’ve been watching your videos since the beginning and you’re always so real! Thank you for sharing so much! You’re doing amazing!
😂😂 That's one word ive. Never heard to describe Jaclyn Hill.
Regardless of how healthy i have become! My sugar addiction is so bad ! Honestly this is so true it is so hard you are not alone 😭
I was eating cookie sprinkles bc I had no other “sugar” in my pantry 😢 I was craving a sweet treat . I felt gross and threw them away and transitioning to healthy natural sugar options
If I forget to make a post work out smoothie with BCAAs and tons of fruit my body craves sugar. It’s the Vitamin B your body is wanting.
I’m so sorry 💔 you’re right, it is like a break up but you learn who your people are. You have a heart of gold!
I never been a fan of Jaclyn hill, but i love this. you are so relatable i love your content now. I love the honesty ❤️❤️
Thanks for being here love 😘
I feel this in my soul. Sometimes being in a journey puts others in a journey on their own. They show their true colors
Im SOOOOO proud of you for going outside of your comfort zone and going to the mall yourself!!! Love you!
Jaclyn thank you so much for ALWAYS being real & vulnerable since day 1. You’re truly THAT GIRL. PRETTY PLEASE give us an updated Jax Snacks videos bc your snacks have been staples in my life. Also need your perfume recs because I still have Outremer Vanille because of you ❤
Self Healing and losing friends is part of the journey.
I lost a lot of friends too and saw true colors. I decided my life is better without them. I don’t have many friends just a lot of acquaintances.
I just hit my 30 days of sobriety. You’re amazing Jaclyn I’ve been following you for many years && you’ve grown so much as an individual and I am super proud of you. Keep your head up. Keep stepping forward.
Your journey and your healing is alll for you. ❤
Yes. You're NOT alone. I struggle too. Food, giving everything away, being taken for granted, used. I'm now working on ME. I realized when I tell them no, after all I do, they call me a jerk. Healing ourselves isn't selfish, it's needed. After turning 45 this year, I'm working on me. Great video. TY. I'm done too. No more allowing others or food dictate me.
❤😊I feel your pain about losing friends (& for me family too!). I've learned that the people you're there for, will not necessarily be thevone who'll be there for you. When you're there for someone you literally have to be genuine and so it expecting NOTHING in return.
🎉People only fail us when we have expectations of them.😊 we can't expect others to be who we are.
I started losing people as I drew closer to the Lord. Not ONE regret!❤
THIS WAS BY FAR MY MOST FAVORITE VIDEO YOU HAVE DONE IN YEARS AND YEARS MAYBE EVER!!!! YOU CAN SEE HOW PROUD YOU ARE OF YOURSELF!!!! I LOVE IT!!! TALKING ABOUT YOUR FEARS AND REAL LIFE SHIT IS AMAZING!!!
Proud of you girl. Losing a friend is so painful and something not talked about enough. The best friends I've lost were soul crushing, but it's like you said, it's a relationship that needed to end. I've been here from the beginning and I know from watching you all these years how invested you are in your people. No one would ever argue you're not a good friend. And also, as a long time follower, I would be SO stoked to meet you in person I would never care what you looked like lol but proud of you for getting out of your comfort zone and doing things that are hard for you like shopping alone. You're AMAZING!
I am refinding you after years and am cheering you on each video! You remind me so much of your older videos where you are so positive and inspired! Keep going girl, not only do you look great, you are radiating!
Be kind to yourself, sugar is highly addictive ❤
Jaclyn, I love you so much! I feel like I do so much for my friends and I now truly only have one friend. You have inspired me to do better for myself as well. After this weekend I had a horrible reaction to alcohol, to where my body hurt physically and I told my husband that I was just done with alcohol! I love watching your journey especially being an OG subscriber!
You’re amazing and have a heart of gold .. and the people that don’t appreciate you or want to remove themselves for your life let them walk away . They weren’t meant to be there . The journey to where you go need to be might be lonely but the true diamonds in your life that truly care about you will always be there , and continue to love you / be your rock no matter what.
You’re my favorite human. Really tho. Everything about you is goals (personality, energy, work ethics, ambition, determination, support, generosity, love in your heart, your kindess, greatfulness ect …I could go on for days) . Your awesome girl!
You cut out one addiction and get a dopamine hit from something else, that’s a transfer addiction. I know bc I’ve struggled with this in the past and it’s not easy, but you’ve recognized it so it’s a first step. Praying for you that it gets easier for you on this journey! I’m rooting for you, and also for Jordan on his next level chef journey!
Honestly going through the weight loss journey myself. Struggle is real. I’ve tried meal prepping in the past and it just wasn’t sticking. This time around I’m committed and it helps that I’m finished with graduate school and have a WHOLE day to prep. My relationships journey started about 8 years ago. Opened the Bible daily and started running habitually. Not sure why but EVERYTHING I opened the Bible to resonated so hard that it helped guide me into a healthier and happier life . Happy to have let go of the toxic ppl that didn’t have my best interests at heart. You’re doing great 👌
THE FRIEND TALK!! Yup that happened to me 😢 my “bff” of 10+ years i did SOOOOO FUCKEN MUCH and it was super one sided 😢
Me too .. still mourning it after she has ghosted me for over a yr
been 3 years and im still grieving it in therapy 🫠@@raeraemillstone
Your journey feels so warm and positive, as a long time follower the parasocial in me is so happy that you are doing good and taking care of yourself, I am and always will be inspired by your strength and bravery❤
I love watching your videos ! Showing struggles and vulnerabilities help everyone connect ! Opposite of addiction is connection ❤
So happy to watch !
I haven’t even watched the entire video, I just got to the part where you’re talking about friendships and it’s heartbreaking. I’m so sorry you’ve had to go through this. Sending you big, giant, warm hugs.
Ugh can totally relate to losing friends once you start doing well and trying to get your shit together. Or even going through rough shit and then getting it together and they all disappear once you set boundaries and realize you’re giving so much but that energy isn’t reciprocated. It’s hard ❤ you got this girl!
What helped me shift my eating habits was realizing it affects my anxiety. I have an anxiety disorder and I didn’t realize how much sugar, processed food, caffeine, etc was contributing to inflammation in my body, rapid heart beat, etc. My anxiety was terrible my whole life UNTIL I started making better food choices!! Now I look up foods that help manage anxiety and do that. :) also magnesium and l-theanine supplements!
And it also helps to think about it this way because I used to go on random diets before for the sake of being “healthy” but would undereat or just eat salads. I didn’t know what I was doing. This shift gives me a purpose to continue and isn’t like a “chore” to do or whatever.
You needed that cry and you might need to cry it out again sooner or later but it’s great to grieve I promise you won’t always cry so hard over those past friendships and you’ll be so much better 🤍
The friends topic is so hard & relatable. I’m proud of you Jaclyn
You’re so inspiring!! My Dr told me I need to lose weight because my cholesterol is high, really high, and she doesn’t want to put me on cholesterol meds bc I’m too young. I am where you were in this vid of having too much artificial sugar and sweets. That’s what I’ve been addicted to my whole life. Ugh. It’s been so hard to stop all that! I really appreciate your candidness and it’s been super helpful in my journey. Thank you!!
I’m late watching! But ugh the friendship breakup really got to me! I felt like crying with you jac, I grieve so hard for those friendships I’ve lost more than an actual relationship breakup! It feels so lonely after loosing those friends that you thought would be forever 😢 I’m grateful to have my husband, I tell him he’s my only true friend! Thank you for making this video, I need to learn from you that it’s okay to go alone to the mall, our to eat, etc, it’s so important to prioritize you, love you girl 💓
I am so impressed and inspired by you!! Im working on getting that "show up for me and do what needs to be done" mindset and the words you're laying down, I'm totally picking up!! Thank you for sharing your journey!! You are SO STRONG!!
What I have learned is that the people who are your real friends are the people who are there for you during the hard times. You are so strong and I hope that you cherish the people around you who do love you
My heart aches for you. I was in a car accident that has left me disabled due to chronic pain. A LOT of my friends left. I'm no longer able to do the things I use to do I had to give up my amazing career. I dont have the extra cash to be generous with anymore. I truly understand your grief. I pray God fills your life with beautiful souls that bless you. If you ever come to Oklahoma City. You've got a friend. You are looking AMAZING with your makeup off!! You're skin is glowing.
same exact boat. Disabled life and not much incan do no friends all left. You can always come to northeast Kansas I could use a friend
I feel you, losing friends are like going through a break up. I've been in so many bad friendships and it's so hard to find the good people that will be there for you when you're down.
I’m so proud of you for sharing your journey with us Thank You for all your doing love ya girly💖
Since being on the sober journey for the past almost 5 months. I have a noticed that the people who are in my circle are no longer. I do grieve, the friendships that I used to have but also enjoy my own company and the journey that I'm going on. please give yourself some grace and know that you're healing for the better.
I swear you remind me so much of myself ! 🖤 Your videos make me feel normal !
I'm so proud of you, Jaclyn! Going to a concert with your nieces and not drinking is a fantastic thing for you to do, not only good for you but also for your nieces. I love you, Jaclyn, so very much. You are an inspiration to me. Sending hugs hugs🩷🐈🐈⬛🐶🐴🐎🩷
Jaclyn love OMG you have come so far and i love your honesty in your videos. thank you for being you ;)
This is SO RELATABLE! I am over here drinking my ice water like, "Yeah, been there. Op, been there." Thank you for sharing and normalizing the struggles, it gets so lonely sometimes. ❤
Good to see you! And i totally agree... i wish everyone would share struggles as much as all the good highlights and happy moments. ❤
“Feeling abandoned” pain is next level! Keep going Jaclyn!!
I’m a recent follower of Jaclyn and I recently started binging all of her videos. Anyway, to hear that Jaclyn was constantly paying for her “friends” and putting their needs before her own is honestly really heartbreaking. It sounds like Jaclyn was constantly lighting herself on fire just to keep everyone else warm… 🥺
This is one of the best videos
You’ve ever done! I love the og days but it use to be so rare to get a sneak peek into your daily life and I just love how real it is
Loneliess over fakeness any day! Genuinity and integrity are all that matters. Remember alone means all-one. Kia kaha (stay strong in maori) from Aotearoa (NZ) xo
Girl!!! I am SO SO PROUD of you! It is not easy doing what you are doing!
I have watched you for years (8-10). You’ve got this. It is HARD but if it wasn’t hard it wouldn’t be progress and worth it… love you 😘 God bless and take care of your beautiful self 💕
Sending you love Jaclyn❤ Struggles are those building blocks!! You got this! 😊😘
So proud and happy that you filmed all of this…you are a true inspiration to us all! I have been watching you for 10+ years and will continue to follow you and support you until I no longer walk this earth. We must take care of ourselves first, because we only get one spin around this world. ❤❤❤❤❤
Damn gurl, Jaclyn! How you can stand in front of that camera after doing a lot of people SOO DIRTY is BEYOND my understanding! NOT a fan and will NEVER be one!!!!!! HELL NOOOO!!!
I’m not kidding this gave me so much motivation to clean my house while watching! All those real real and raw thoughts about not wanting to but doing it because it makes you feel better and to push through! Thank you for this motivation girl we all needed this
Yaaaaas Girl... love your journey and your honesty through it! ❤ my circle shrinked so much too when i got clean. I feel you. ❤❤❤
I also stopped caffeine cuz I was having that same crash and feeling awful. It's a night and day difference!! I couldn't believe it. Decaf only for me bc I really do love coffee
Okay yes but decaf is so gross to me 😖😩
@@hermiesrokmysox I haven't personally found a huge difference in flavor. Are you drinking it black?
@@Krista16K I use creamer - I am just very picky with coffee and espresso. :/ I just got a nespresso and will have to try some of their decaf pods.
@@hermiesrokmysox that's what I use. I think the decaf Melozio is pretty good
@@Krista16K I will have to try it! :)
Sending you love! I have always been the “mother” of the group and when I had my daughter the people who I thought were my ride or die disappeared! I have had two friends who stuck with me and it hurt but I’m so thankful for them!
God removed you from a table where you used to sit, in order to save you from a host who was serving you poison. Cry those tears and feel that hurt and then know you are covered by God.
Eww.. just stop the bs. You sound brainwashed and remind me of that GoT nun.
Thank you. That was right on time ❤
Well said. 💛
People don’t get sick from magical flying Boogey germs. They DEVELOP the “illness” following the resolution of the upsetting event that caused it. Just like they DEVELOP cancer. If you can’t “catch” cancer, you can’t “catch” anything else. The Germ Theory has been fraud for 110 years. Repeating it over and over does not make it true.
Amen
I am with you on the social anxiety. I dont go into stores by myself at all because it feels like I'm inside a tornado. Too much sound too many ppl too much anxiety! ❤
Poor Make Up Geek. She prob felt like this years ago with the failed colab🤔
