You were my inspiration to quit alcohol almost 3 months ago. And before I even finished this video, I placed an order for a walking pad. I am LOVING this content. Thank you so much for being such an inspiration.
I’m on my personal journey too, alcohol to start but I now NEED to expand my journey more! My panic has become deliberating, My eating is horrible, and my BP is horrific! Thank you Jaclyn for being realistic! ❤
I quit drinking 5 months ago because my clumsy butt broke my ankle but it made me realize that I had a problem and I am so happy that I'm going along this journey while jaclyn is too because it makes me feel not so alone
Congrats!!! 8 yrs no Alchohol here and loving it! A couple weeks ago I kicked caffeine too, and it actually wasn’t that bad!! Much less anxiety and getting better sleep already.
@@BrooklynShan I simply stopped drinking it, but actually with the help of a Happy Light! Do some research on Happy Lights or “”SAAD” lamps that help to reset your circadian rhythm. It helps me fall asleep and wake up without caffeine!
As someone who has been a ride or die subscriber of yours, and seen you at your worst, I cannot even tell you how refreshing it is to see you at your absolute best! You are such an inspiration to so many people, myself included. Don’t ever give up. I love you times a million, Jaclyn. ❤
I really think God put your first video about alcohol in my path. I was drinking every night just to deal with stress and it became a habit I was so afraid to quit. But something about your honesty and realness got through to me. I am 58 days sober and you are so right it just keeps getting better! God bless you!!!
I’m in the same boat and I’m also scared. May I ask if you had any withdrawal, anxiety, or DT’s? I drink 2 3oz gin and tonics and wash it down with a White claw…
@@chelsiebain3952 Look for HALT symptoms - Hungry, Angry, Lonely, Tired when you cut down alcohol use. My sleep got worse because alcohol serves as a sedative...then I was tired, which made me really irritable. Alcohol spikes blood sugar so your body seeks out a replacement...you get crazy hungry without the booze! It was only about 3 weeks of these symptoms and I learned how to curb them and they subsided. Good luck! You've got this!
Honestly this is so helpful because I feel like I am doing this journey with a friend. I seriously have such a hard time giving myself grace and not making EVERY workout and EVERY meal PERFECT. So thank you for sharing this!!
I’m so happy for you Jaclyn! I’m on my health journey right now, I’ve been sober since last April. I gained 40lbs during Covid 😅 Im now down 10lbs since the end of December 🎉 thanks for keeping me motivated to keep going. I love watching Jaclyn’s journey! ❤
so relatable!! thank you for sharing. i'm almost sober for 9 months now myself and everything you say is just about right! so proud of you for being on this journey and sharing it. you look amazing!
It feels so good, but I also feel so lost at the same time! 37 days sober over here and thriving! Don’t get me wrong it’s been SO difficult and it’s gonna get hard but I got this! I’m so proud of you, I remember that your eyeshadow pallet was the first high end pallet I purchased with my own money, and being able to follow your journey and watch you as I go through the journey means the world to me! Thanks for being you, you’re truly amazing! ❤
Learned some great techniques from your videos many years ago. I'm glad the algo pushed this to me. Really happy for you and all of the commenters that are making healthy changes in their lives. Wishing you all the best! You've got this!
Girl, I just love you! I struggle with anxiety and depression, and have for years. I work from home which can make it worse. I’ve had a walking pad for a year and when I moved, it got pushed to the “storage pile” in the garage. You just inspired me to pull that thing out and NOT OVER COMPLICATE IT!! Thank you for that message ❤ sometimes overthinking it is the hardest part, even thought I know I’ll feel better after. Wishing you so much more happiness & success!! 🫶🏻
You inspired me so much Jaclyn. I became a subscriber of yours from discovering your alcohol free journey which inspired me so much! I am now 105 days sober and feeling amazing. Thank you so much ❤
My husband quit drinking 11 years ago so I also stopped drinking, too. We are each other’s best friend. Every one of the people we hung out with & were friends with drank and still do drink. We literally had to stop hanging out with them and it’s ok. We are here for each other through everything. It’s made our relationship so much stronger. So proud of you, girl! ❤
I have been wanting/needing to quit drinking for awhile now and Jaclyn I’ve followed you for years and truly couldn’t be more proud of you. This video is just what I needed. Thank you 🙏🏻
Listennnnn, you have literally always been one of the most beautiful humans, but seeing you happy and healthy makes your beauty even brighter. Been watching you for years and I’ve always loved your videos, the good and the bad. So much love to you woman, congratulations on 6 months sober, and thank you for sharing your journey with us. 🖤🖤🖤🖤
Congratulations on your 6 months of sobriety! You truly have never looked better, you are just glowing and radiating happiness! ❤ Love you sharing your journey, and the things that work for you!!
I have had a very emotional year and have lost 120 lbs I am 49 and only weigh about 20 lbs more then when I graduated in 1993 😮your body definitely changes. It is so amazing to see your growth and process. Your such a beautiful soul and deserve all the good. Congratulations on your progress ❤
Jaclyn, I know you may not see this but you were the reason I got into make-up the way I did and why my friends ask me to do theirs. I’ve watched your videos from the BEGINNING! (Cat eye winged liner) And all I have to say is your growth is inspiring. You are real, raw and always self reflecting and asking yourself, what can I do better. Admitting faults and choosing to push forward. The way you talk now is so much more positive and confident. Not letting the anxiety take over. Makes me smile! Happiness looks good on you girl! ❤❤❤❤
i love you jaclyn!!!! March 25th is my 1 year of no alcohol!!! thank you for sharing your faith, fitness, and mental health journey- you have no idea how many people you are positively affecting🤍
Don't sleep on walking! I got a smartwatch a few months ago and noticed my steps would be sooooo low during the week because I work a desk job and especially during winter...I'm not a fan of walking when it's freezing lol So I got a small treadmill from Target...BEST PURCHASE! I can easily double/triple my steps and it feels great! Super proud of where you're at - you keep doing YOU, you're doing great!
I love everything! I DO not support anyone being sent to “better help “ . Worst experience of my life . I don’t have 1 friend that has a good thing to say . The truth is you will need help if you use that service.
2.5 months no alcohol because of your videos! I only casually drank but I wanted to try it out. Thanks for inspiring me. Making commitments and keeping them feels so good!
It gets easier I'm 6 months. I did the neltroxone route. Fills the craving a bit. I mean a bit. It's a option. I party partied too tho. Lol it got bad I was in my buddy's back yard on a couch in a tent. Bad
The “do not overthink it” really hits home. Most days I absolutely love putting on a matching set and feeling so put together during my workout…but there are definitely times when even THAT just feels like too much work, so I have definitely walked in my pjs and fuzzy socks for a workout before lol
Oh my gosh thank you! It’s hard to face emotions and stress without drinking for me. But knowing you got through it helps me continue to push through. I’m so grateful I watched your video! ❤
Jaclyn! I have watched you since 2014 when I was a senior in college. I haven’t been on YT as much anymore but I came across your video today and this just made me so emotional and happy for someone I don’t actually know in real life. I’ve seen you struggle through the years with your relationships, businesses, and self confidence. It’s amazing to see how you’ve transformed your mindset set and attitude on life. I love this so much for you and wish you continued love and happiness. You truly deserve it. (PS it also makes me so happy seeing how positive your comment section is too)
I quit drinking 5 months ago as well and it's been so beneficial for my overall health and wellness! My energy levels have increased and I feel amazing! I have lost 10 pounds! Love this journey for us of living alcohol-free!!
Congrats girl on how far you've come to better your life! Internal health and happiness really shine through! You are awesome and I love this influence you're bringing to TH-cam! Sobriety is the new trend and I am here for it!! 🥰
I don’t think I’ve ever been so proud of someone I never met as I am of you! You’re incredible, Jaclyn! Keep up the amazing work and keep making this inspiring content. Sending love! 💕
I love this! So happy for you. Currently trying to get healthier not only for my wedding this year but because I'm mentally sick of not doing it. Thank you! You definitely helped me so much!
You know what Jaclyn, everybody makes mistakes. And you’re learning from them and becoming a better version of yourself. You go girl!✨ You look happy, healthy and amazing. And yes, don’t sleep on walking guys!!!!
This gives me so much hope! I’ve been drinking daily now for several years. I hope I can get back to the point in my life where I do not drink. Go girl!! You are amazing. Thank you for this.
I’m 5 months in and feeling so good:,) I’m so proud of all of us in the comments who have also stopped drinking!!!!!!!!! Congrats to you Jaclyn & all of us too!!
thank you beautiful girl ...I just poured my last bottle of wine down the drain .... i viewed your video 6 months ago and it's be on my mind ever since ... You look so beautiful now that you have stopped drinking, your transformation is amazing ! I have to play your video every day to keep me on track and it's working ..,.thank you so much and so thankful I found your channel ! God Bless you beautiful girl ! Cindi from Canada
One month and 5 days with no alcohol! I was a daily wine drinker. It was the first thing I grabbed when I walked in my door when I got off work. You were my main inspiration 🫶🏻
@@beccs5050girl I have no willpower and I thought the same! I just had to make myself stop.. the first 2 weeks were the absolute worst, but then you get in a new routine and I just took it a day at a time .. good luck friend!
I am 37 days no alcohol! Your first video really inspired me and made me want to start on my own journey. I’ve been definitely eating way too many sweets. I would love more what you eat in day and/or how you lost the weight ❤
You’re beautiful either way girl! Changing all that you have in the last 6 months has benefited a lot of people encouraging them to do better! And with your amazing husband he has been the most encouraging and supportive in your journey as well! But of all you are amazing and love ya❤️ love love these videos
Girl, I stopped watching you like literally six months ago and you look amazing. Good job. Also like your energy is just a lot different you’re very motivated. Super proud of you.
I know you’re a makeup girly and you love it, but the transition from the first clip with full face versus you in the car with no makeup, you look AMAZING without the makeup!! Your eye color really shows up!
Jaclyn, you've been such an inspiration for me! I went 1.5 months without drinking, kinda relapsed around the holidays, but I'm back on the sober train, I've got just over a week now. I've also started going for walks, even when its like 40 degrees out! I love these videos, please keep making them and showing us your trips and tricks and journey
As someone who’s struggled with mental health as well as my relationship with food… I love this. I’m on the same journey. It’s a bumpy road. This video inspired me to continue what I started- walking more, being kinder to my self, nourishing my body while also enjoying my cravings. I am so happy to see you in a better state of mind ❤
Jaclyn, I have been watching you since your first Kim Kardashian’s bedroom lamp makeup video and I swear you are the only person I still watch from that time and probably the only reason I still open my TH-cam app. There literally is no falling out of love with you, you are not a phase. You are literally life
Coming from an abusive family from drugs and alcohol, I know that’s in my family bloodline. Having a new baby made me want to make sure I don’t pass on that trauma to the rest of my family. Congrats on being sober!
Guuurrllll! The amount of energy you have is INSANITY!! You look beautiful as always. I can’t believe the difference in you. Your face just shows all the progress. I need this for myself!!’ ❤
Jaclyn!! Follower from your 3rd ever video here, who has seen every one since, and truly so freakin proud of you. I’m inspired! Please keep posting more of your journey, because it truly has a positive impact on so many people. ❤
You've been vulnerable on youtube. You can do this,find a buddy to walk slowly with. Always helps if you have someone who wants to do what you want..New year,new you 💜
Funny you mentioned Starbucks. I shit you not when I tell you this…..I cut out Starbucks for 2 months and lost 40#. FORTY POUNDS. Not exaggerating one bit. My doc freaked out and ordered tests but I was just fine. That’s literally how much sugar is in those things.
Proud of you girl! As I’ve gotten older, and seen the vices that other adults around me have-I realize we’re all using SOMETHING to cope with the anxieties of life. Drinking, scrolling, smoking, sex, shopping-I’m guilty of a few of those! I haven’t even been to therapy and I feel like if therapy was free or even *gasp* mandatory (?) until a certain age….I feel like we’d all be better off as a whole because we’d have mechanisms to cope with the inevitable challenges of living this life.
I absolutely love this chapter of your life. You should be so proud of yourself Jaclyn 👏 YOU DID THAT!!!! Mentally, physically, emotionally & spiritually stronger ✨ Keep going and God bless you and your family 🙏💙
Whoooo you go girl! You look great! But you’ve always looked great. I’m glad you FEEL great! I’m currently on a weightless journey too love watching these
I saw Katie Austin has a new treadmill coming out this week that actually folds and rolls so you can slide it under a desk or bed! I'm going to get it since I work from home. I can't wait to work and walk, talk and walk, eat and walk, all the things.
I’ve never really been into drinking, but I’ve been smoking weed since I was a teenager. I recently decided to quit cold turkey, and man can I relate to you on some things! I also realized that I was using it to basically numb myself, or help myself “deal with things.” I’ve only been off of it for 3 months, but I feel the same way, I am SO proud of myself for actually dealing with my emotions and negative thoughts on my own now, and also feel as though it’s preparing me for motherhood!! Way to go Jaclyn!🥳🙌🏻 I’ve been watching you since you worked at Mac, and I can’t tell you how much I appreciate you being vulnerable and sharing all this with us! You are glowing, and you make me want to keep going. Thank you🥹❤️
Brilliant well done. I smoked weed and alcohol for years,so hard to come off it. Found love for the gym and myself. Keep going luv. Bet your aging backwards now.👏❤
So proud of you Jaclyn! I've lost 42 lbs since October! And I am 20lbs away from my usual weight before I gained a ton during the pandemic uggg. In my case it wasn't alcohol. I have never drank alcohol before (personal preference, grew up with an alcoholic father) so thats never been an issue for me BUT energy drinks definitely were. I finally kicked the habit and so beyond proud of myself. I've been drinking unsweetened green tea & Poppi prebiotic "soda" instead and ita been life changing. Can't wait for more of your journey!
I'm a long time follower and this is such a moment in your life. People don't realize how they deal with emotions and issues really impact their whole life. I'm so proud of you and please keep sharing your story!! I see this all the time as a nurse and you are so awesome 😊❤🎉
You look so good Jaclyn! I was drinking a lot since last February and I think it was from the stress of my new job. I quit that job back in August and now my mental health is much better so I finally stopped drinking as much as I was and started putting more focus back on my health and fitness goals. I feel so so much better and I’ve lost so much weight because I’ve been cutting out alcohol and I feel so much better physically. I’m so happy for you ❤
✨I quit on November 1, 2023 and stuck with it because of YOU!! I can’t tell people enough how GOOD cutting out booze makes you feel!! Everything just falls into place when you quit!! Love you and thank you!!🥹🙏🏼💖✨
Psychedelics saved me from years of uncontrollable depression, anxiety, smoking, and illicit pills addiction. Imagine carving heavy chains for over a decade and then all of a sudden that burden is gone. Believe it or not, in a couple of years they'll be all over for treatment of mental health related issues.
Psilocybin is legal in some states and mushroom therapy is allowed in many states as a legitimate medical treatment. So I believe soon it'll be globally used as a treatment for anxiety, depression, and more.
To be honest, mushrooms are one of the most amazing things on the planet and it is natural, they serve in many ways not only for mental related issues.
Can you help me with a reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. It is very hard to get a reliable source here in New Zealand. Really need!
Yes, Sporeville. I had the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD, and addiction... Mushrooms definitely made a huge difference to why I'm clean today.
I wish they were readily available in my place. Microdosing was my next plan of care for my husband. He's 59 & has many mental health issues plus probably CTE & a TBI that left him in a coma 8 days. It's too late now I had to get a TPO as he's 6'6 300+ pound homicidal maniac. He's constantly talking about killing someone. He's violent. Anyone reading this Familiar w/ BPD knows if it is common for an obsession with violence.
You fill my heart with so much happiness. Oh my goodness I have watched you for many years and just watching your transition. I myself have just gone through this transition learning everything that we are learning currently oh my goodness you had me in tears. I love it I love this side of you. I love every side of you. I have loved you for years anyways I just wanted to tell you, you blow my mind and I think you’re so incredible and I am so proud of this journey that you are on so much love to you here’s to many more years my friend♥️♥️
If youre always numbing your pain and suppressing your emotions you never learn to deal with them and overcome them.. You have to allow yourself to feel and sit with things in order to deal with them, if you dont they will always be there!
I’m on the exact same journey however down 60 and have 40 more to go.. I know the excitement that comes with this and I love to see it in you too. Keep these videos coming, they are so encouraging. I’m going to get a walking pad !
I quit drinking 2 months ago when I found out I have cancer, and I was SO sad to have to stop, but the longer I go without drinking the more I realize how much better it is to be sober, keep it up! Thank you for being so open about this!
Wow when you posted your first video about quitting alcohol I wasn’t ready to give it up but I knew I had to eventually. After recent events in my personal life my mind set has FINALLY shifted and I’m ready to start this alcohol and weed free journey. You are such an inspiration❤️
Maybe it’s just me, sober for so many years but it can still happen. Out of nowhere it will hit me, “wouldn’t it just be so fun to get a buzz on?” I won’t drink but I miss it. No one talks about missing it. Everyone is like, “I don’t miss it at all.” I have guilt that I do.
you're not alone. sober 8 months and I do think about it, how fun would it be to just finish a bottle of wine with my bestie. but I don't want that to be my story any more!
Hii, I just wanted to say that your video with the 5 tips to stop drinking and this one right here are my go to save space right now🙈. I am adapting your way of quitting alcohol to myself quitting sugar and an almost serious binge eating problem❤️ you gave me the last kick with your videos to start treating myself better🥺 thank you for sharing, so brave an proud of you
I’m 1.5 years sober and it was the best decision of my life. More importantly you are also becoming an inspiration to people and motivating them that they can do it too. The first 3 months were the hardest. At 6 months it’s becomes a way of life and you see the satisfaction of not drinking. I will never go back!
Jaclyn the mindset change around your journey is so wild!! It’s totally different from when you started and I feel like most of us go through the phases where we think that we need to cut out all the sugar and all the carbs and do a ton of cardio. And then we go through phases of trying to find what works for us and then realizing that we need to have balance and can still enjoy the foods that we love, but also working out and having mostly whole food diet. It’s all about just feeling good mentally and physically and I really think you’re starting to embody this and show people that you can maintain weight after losing weight and still enjoy the foods and activities that you love.
Your jaclyn journey is very motivating and inspiring.. You have come a long way 👏.. your videos are so raw, as you showed times you were vulnerable, your ups and downs, never seen any TH-camr showing it this real, it’s really helpful as one can relate to it. I’m quite impressed the way you stayed consistent and pushed yourself hard. The result is so rewarding.. you have a done so well 😊 🤗
I didn’t quit drinking, but I quit vaping! 3months in, I used your daily sticker method. Thank you!💕
I’m so proud of you!!! today is my 400th day no alcohol!!!
That is awesome! Takes so much will power. Congratulations on to the rest of your life.
Amazing 🤩.
Congratulations 🎊🎉 🎈.
This July 31 will be my 1.825 day anniversary.
Omg that is amazing!!!!! 🥳🥳🥳🥳
Thank you everyone!!!
YAS queen!!!
You've inspired me to finally cut out alcohol!! I am almost at a month, and I've never felt better.Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
Keep going. You got this 💞
how is your sobriety going?
The decrease in inflammation in your face is craaaaazy!!! So proud of you

I haven’t been on YT as much anymore but I came across your video today and this just made me so emotional and happy for someone I don’t actually know in real life. I’ve seen you struggle through the years with your relationships, businesses, and self confidence. It’s amazing to see how you’ve transformed your mindset set and attitude on life. I love this so much for you and wish you continued love and happiness. You truly deserve it. (PS it also makes me so happy seeing how positive your comment section is too)
I quit drinking 5 months ago as well and it's been so beneficial for my overall health and wellness! My energy levels have increased and I feel amazing! I have lost 10 pounds! Love this journey for us of living alcohol-free!!
Congrats girl on how far you've come to better your life! Internal health and happiness really shine through! You are awesome and I love this influence you're bringing to TH-cam! Sobriety is the new trend and I am here for it!! 🥰
I don’t think I’ve ever been so proud of someone I never met as I am of you! You’re incredible, Jaclyn! Keep up the amazing work and keep making this inspiring content. Sending love! 💕
Omgggg thank you!🥹
I love this! So happy for you. Currently trying to get healthier not only for my wedding this year but because I'm mentally sick of not doing it. Thank you! You definitely helped me so much!
You know what Jaclyn, everybody makes mistakes. And you’re learning from them and becoming a better version of yourself. You go girl!✨ You look happy, healthy and amazing. And yes, don’t sleep on walking guys!!!!
This gives me so much hope! I’ve been drinking daily now for several years. I hope I can get back to the point in my life where I do not drink. Go girl!! You are amazing. Thank you for this.
I’m 5 months in and feeling so good:,) I’m so proud of all of us in the comments who have also stopped drinking!!!!!!!!! Congrats to you Jaclyn & all of us too!!
thank you beautiful girl ...I just poured my last bottle of wine down the drain .... i viewed your video 6 months ago and it's be on my mind ever since ... You look so beautiful now that you have stopped drinking, your transformation is amazing ! I have to play your video every day to keep me on track and it's working ..,.thank you so much and so thankful I found your channel ! God Bless you beautiful girl ! Cindi from Canada
Girl, you are BEAMING!! You're just radiating with happiness! It's very clear that you feel good. You look AMAZING too!!!
One month and 5 days with no alcohol! I was a daily wine drinker. It was the first thing I grabbed when I walked in my door when I got off work. You were my main inspiration 🫶🏻
Im still doing this 😭 i cant quit
@@beccs5050girl I have no willpower and I thought the same! I just had to make myself stop.. the first 2 weeks were the absolute worst, but then you get in a new routine and I just took it a day at a time .. good luck friend!
I am 37 days no alcohol! Your first video really inspired me and made me want to start on my own journey. I’ve been definitely eating way too many sweets. I would love more what you eat in day and/or how you lost the weight ❤
42 days of no drinking! Thank you so much Jaclyn for inspiring me!
You’re beautiful either way girl! Changing all that you have in the last 6 months has benefited a lot of people encouraging them to do better! And with your amazing husband he has been the most encouraging and supportive in your journey as well! But of all you are amazing and love ya❤️ love love these videos
Please show us your process of changing your body composition/toning your body and what things you did to achieve this whenever you start 🙏🏽
Girl, I stopped watching you like literally six months ago and you look amazing. Good job. Also like your energy is just a lot different you’re very motivated. Super proud of you.
I know you’re a makeup girly and you love it, but the transition from the first clip with full face versus you in the car with no makeup, you look AMAZING without the makeup!! Your eye color really shows up!
She looks so beautiful with no makeup...❤
I feel like I’m healing alongside you. I’m a mom of 2 and kinda got lost in motherhood but now I feel so much strength ❤
Jaclyn, you've been such an inspiration for me! I went 1.5 months without drinking, kinda relapsed around the holidays, but I'm back on the sober train, I've got just over a week now. I've also started going for walks, even when its like 40 degrees out! I love these videos, please keep making them and showing us your trips and tricks and journey
As someone who’s struggled with mental health as well as my relationship with food… I love this. I’m on the same journey. It’s a bumpy road. This video inspired me to continue what I started- walking more, being kinder to my self, nourishing my body while also enjoying my cravings. I am so happy to see you in a better state of mind ❤
Babbbyyyyyyy I need the link to the chicken nuggies pronto ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I came here to say the same!!
Jaclyn, I have been watching you since your first Kim Kardashian’s bedroom lamp makeup video and I swear you are the only person I still watch from that time and probably the only reason I still open my TH-cam app. There literally is no falling out of love with you, you are not a phase. You are literally life
Coming from an abusive family from drugs and alcohol, I know that’s in my family bloodline. Having a new baby made me want to make sure I don’t pass on that trauma to the rest of my family. Congrats on being sober!
Love & blessings 🤎🙏
YES!!!! BREAK THOSE FAMILY CURSES!!!!
Guuurrllll! The amount of energy you have is INSANITY!! You look beautiful as always. I can’t believe the difference in you. Your face just shows all the progress. I need this for myself!!’ ❤
Please read into the issues and legal claims with better help! I don’t get why influencer after influencer is still marketing this business.
What claims you mean makeup I don't wear any anymore because of all the cell damage!!

Jaclyn!! Follower from your 3rd ever video here, who has seen every one since, and truly so freakin proud of you. I’m inspired! Please keep posting more of your journey, because it truly has a positive impact on so many people. ❤
That’s so awesome! I’m so overweight and it seems so difficult to get started. It’s more of getting out of bad habits (Starbucks) than anything else.
You've been vulnerable on youtube. You can do this,find a buddy to walk slowly with. Always helps if you have someone who wants to do what you want..New year,new you 💜
Funny you mentioned Starbucks. I shit you not when I tell you this…..I cut out Starbucks for 2 months and lost 40#. FORTY POUNDS. Not exaggerating one bit. My doc freaked out and ordered tests but I was just fine. That’s literally how much sugar is in those things.
Proud of you girl! As I’ve gotten older, and seen the vices that other adults around me have-I realize we’re all using SOMETHING to cope with the anxieties of life. Drinking, scrolling, smoking, sex, shopping-I’m guilty of a few of those! I haven’t even been to therapy and I feel like if therapy was free or even *gasp* mandatory (?) until a certain age….I feel like we’d all be better off as a whole because we’d have mechanisms to cope with the inevitable challenges of living this life.
I’m walking on my walking pad right now watching this! Down 1st4lbs with a balanced diet, keeping food tasty and walking x
I absolutely love this chapter of your life. You should be so proud of yourself Jaclyn 👏 YOU DID THAT!!!! Mentally, physically, emotionally & spiritually stronger ✨ Keep going and God bless you and your family 🙏💙
Whoooo you go girl! You look great! But you’ve always looked great. I’m glad you FEEL great! I’m currently on a weightless journey too love watching these
I can’t do group workouts, that’s why I have a personal trainer and I’m so very grateful of her because I’m just more of a one on one person.
Highly recommend walking super slow on the treadmill for 15 min after your class. Nice slow cool down. And keep a snack in your gym bag.
I saw Katie Austin has a new treadmill coming out this week that actually folds and rolls so you can slide it under a desk or bed! I'm going to get it since I work from home. I can't wait to work and walk, talk and walk, eat and walk, all the things.
I haven’t seen you for a while (like 6 months) and I love what I see now! Great job Dear! God bless you!
I’ve never really been into drinking, but I’ve been smoking weed since I was a teenager. I recently decided to quit cold turkey, and man can I relate to you on some things! I also realized that I was using it to basically numb myself, or help myself “deal with things.” I’ve only been off of it for 3 months, but I feel the same way, I am SO proud of myself for actually dealing with my emotions and negative thoughts on my own now, and also feel as though it’s preparing me for motherhood!!
Way to go Jaclyn!🥳🙌🏻 I’ve been watching you since you worked at Mac, and I can’t tell you how much I appreciate you being vulnerable and sharing all this with us! You are glowing, and you make me want to keep going. Thank you🥹❤️
Brilliant well done. I smoked weed and alcohol for years,so hard to come off it. Found love for the gym and myself. Keep going luv. Bet your aging backwards now.👏❤
So proud of you Jaclyn! I've lost 42 lbs since October! And I am 20lbs away from my usual weight before I gained a ton during the pandemic uggg. In my case it wasn't alcohol. I have never drank alcohol before (personal preference, grew up with an alcoholic father) so thats never been an issue for me BUT energy drinks definitely were. I finally kicked the habit and so beyond proud of myself. I've been drinking unsweetened green tea & Poppi prebiotic "soda" instead and ita been life changing. Can't wait for more of your journey!
I'm a long time follower and this is such a moment in your life. People don't realize how they deal with emotions and issues really impact their whole life. I'm so proud of you and please keep sharing your story!! I see this all the time as a nurse and you are so awesome 😊❤🎉
You look so good Jaclyn! I was drinking a lot since last February and I think it was from the stress of my new job. I quit that job back in August and now my mental health is much better so I finally stopped drinking as much as I was and started putting more focus back on my health and fitness goals. I feel so so much better and I’ve lost so much weight because I’ve been cutting out alcohol and I feel so much better physically. I’m so happy for you ❤
✨I quit on November 1, 2023 and stuck with it because of YOU!! I can’t tell people enough how GOOD cutting out booze makes you feel!! Everything just falls into place when you quit!! Love you and thank you!!🥹🙏🏼💖✨
I’ve been following you since 2013. I’m so proud of you. I never thought I’d say that I’m 5 years sober. Keep going girl! 🎉🎉🎉
Psychedelics saved me from years of uncontrollable depression, anxiety, smoking, and illicit pills addiction. Imagine carving heavy chains for over a decade and then all of a sudden that burden is gone. Believe it or not, in a couple of years they'll be all over for treatment of mental health related issues.
Psilocybin is legal in some states and mushroom therapy is allowed in many states as a legitimate medical treatment. So I believe soon it'll be globally used as a treatment for anxiety, depression, and more.
To be honest, mushrooms are one of the most amazing things on the planet and it is natural, they serve in many ways not only for mental related issues.
Can you help me with a reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. It is very hard to get a reliable source here in New Zealand. Really need!
Yes, Sporeville. I had the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD, and addiction... Mushrooms definitely made a huge difference to why I'm clean today.
I wish they were readily available in my place.
Microdosing was my next plan of care for my husband. He's 59 & has many mental health issues plus probably CTE & a TBI that left him in a coma 8 days. It's too late now I had to get a TPO as he's 6'6 300+ pound homicidal maniac. He's constantly talking about killing someone.
He's violent. Anyone reading this Familiar w/ BPD knows if it is common for an obsession with violence.
You fill my heart with so much happiness. Oh my goodness I have watched you for many years and just watching your transition. I myself have just gone through this transition learning everything that we are learning currently oh my goodness you had me in tears. I love it I love this side of you. I love every side of you. I have loved you for years anyways I just wanted to tell you, you blow my mind and I think you’re so incredible and I am so proud of this journey that you are on so much love to you here’s to many more years my friend♥️♥️
If youre always numbing your pain and suppressing your emotions you never learn to deal with them and overcome them.. You have to allow yourself to feel and sit with things in order to deal with them, if you dont they will always be there!
I’ve been following you for 10 years. Literally since I was in high school 🥹 And I’m genuinely so happy for you and where you’re at right now!!
Proud of you Jaclyn! Thanks for this video! You seem so much better! I struggle with anxiety myself!
This is awesome! I'm in recovery and I haven't had a drink since 5/8/2020 🎉
I’m on the exact same journey however down 60 and have 40 more to go.. I know the excitement that comes with this and I love to see it in you too. Keep these videos coming, they are so encouraging. I’m going to get a walking pad !
Omg! We need the link to the nuggets!
Right! Where is it!?
I quit drinking 2 months ago when I found out I have cancer, and I was SO sad to have to stop, but the longer I go without drinking the more I realize how much better it is to be sober, keep it up! Thank you for being so open about this!
Good job! You look so alive! I'm 1 month in but can't wait for my 6 month mark!
Wow when you posted your first video about quitting alcohol I wasn’t ready to give it up but I knew I had to eventually. After recent events in my personal life my mind set has FINALLY shifted and I’m ready to start this alcohol and weed free journey. You are such an inspiration❤️
Maybe it’s just me, sober for so many years but it can still happen. Out of nowhere it will hit me, “wouldn’t it just be so fun to get a buzz on?” I won’t drink but I miss it. No one talks about missing it. Everyone is like, “I don’t miss it at all.” I have guilt that I do.
you're not alone. sober 8 months and I do think about it, how fun would it be to just finish a bottle of wine with my bestie. but I don't want that to be my story any more!
Don't feel guilty, it's so normal, even after years, stay strong!
I miss it too in the moment (usually at night or at a party) but then the next day I am so SO HAPPY that I’m still sober and no hangover 😭
I have dreams where I'm drinking and feel guilty in my dream!
I miss the buzz! But I don't miss the hangovers or wasted money. Also it's been so long I'm scared if I drank again I wouldn't stop.
Hii, I just wanted to say that your video with the 5 tips to stop drinking and this one right here are my go to save space right now🙈. I am adapting your way of quitting alcohol to myself quitting sugar and an almost serious binge eating problem❤️ you gave me the last kick with your videos to start treating myself better🥺 thank you for sharing, so brave an proud of you
Hey, what was the brand of the chicken nuggets? Thanks 🎉
Yes, I would love to know! I have celiac, and I am always looking for great tasting gf food.
I’m 1.5 years sober and it was the best decision of my life. More importantly you are also becoming an inspiration to people and motivating them that they can do it too. The first 3 months were the hardest. At 6 months it’s becomes a way of life and you see the satisfaction of not drinking. I will never go back!
Jaclyn the mindset change around your journey is so wild!! It’s totally different from when you started and I feel like most of us go through the phases where we think that we need to cut out all the sugar and all the carbs and do a ton of cardio. And then we go through phases of trying to find what works for us and then realizing that we need to have balance and can still enjoy the foods that we love, but also working out and having mostly whole food diet. It’s all about just feeling good mentally and physically and I really think you’re starting to embody this and show people that you can maintain weight after losing weight and still enjoy the foods and activities that you love.
Jaclyn i need those nuggets! What is the brand?? You didn’t post the bag on the screen and i was so sad 😂😭❤ tell meeeee 😍
Jacklyn, you forgot to show the chicken nugget box/bag! Girl that is soooooooooo rude! Get us salivating and then shut us down! 🤣
“I have myself, I have God, I don’t need anything else” LOVE THIS JACLYN!! 🤎 congrats on 6 months 🥳🎉
Your jaclyn journey is very motivating and inspiring.. You have come a long way 👏.. your videos are so raw, as you showed times you were vulnerable, your ups and downs, never seen any TH-camr showing it this real, it’s really helpful as one can relate to it. I’m quite impressed the way you stayed consistent and pushed yourself hard. The result is so rewarding.. you have a done so well 😊 🤗
