Thanks for listening to me ramble on about this difficult subject. It’s hard to admit failure. I appreciate you all being here and I consider you all my friends, as weird as that sounds.
Thank you for your support and if you’re struggling with your weight, I feel you and you have all my love. ❤

Gal - did I also dive off and perhaps light the wagon on fire? Yes… no… Maybe?!!! 😂 I feel ya girl. It is HARD to plan healthy meals which I feel is a full time job in itself 😢 coupled with busy work from home full time job, momming it, household main cleaner organizer scheduler to all - drives me mad. Hang in there gal-def see and feel ya from over here. Big Merry Christmas to you and yours!
I have been taking a low dose of a GLP1 and the food noise stopped almost immediately. It was the weirdest thing to not be thinking about food all of the time
You are not alone, thanks for sharing, best wishes for good results on your tests, one day at a time.
Sue here: no, not a failure. Weight and failure do not belong in the same sentence, Jen. Weight has nothing to do with failure. Some of us will fight the extra weight lifelong! Other people have other problems - we have the weight thing. We can still be healthy and love life and love cooking and love eating. And we will lose weight, and gain weight, 😮 but we can still keep working at it until we feel comfortable and healthy. Thank you so much for all your encouragement and hard work. Thank you for putting yourself 'out there' to motivate us too😊🧡.
As weird as it sounds, I consider you a friend too (as I'm sure many others here do as well). We're here for you ❤ BTW, I hate exercising, too. Who wants to get all sweaty on purpose? 😂
Just so you know, you are an inspiration to a shit ton of people. Young, old, chubby, skinny, single, mom and grandmothers. It takes a lot of balls to put your life out here in front of thousands and thousands of people knowing full well there are a lot of pathetic haters just waiting to pounce. Also know that you have a shit ton of us dedicated fans who feel like you are our friend that have your back at every turn. F the haters. You keep being you. We love you and your content. Ps…. I miss your closet talks😊
I was coming here to say this kind of thing, but you worded it beautifully. I will reiterate: F the haters. Every single one. And shame on anyone telling anyone that they're fat. F them, too. Jen, you are an inspiration and you should be proud of all you do. You're in my thoughts with your health concerns. You got this, girl!
Take care of yourself! Allowing yourself to be open and vulnerable on the internet is a scary thing. Keyboard critics can be so mean. So please take care of YOU. You are a wife, mother, full time healthcare worker who travels a lot, and social media influencer. That’s like 5 full time jobs - and I didn’t include chef, chauffeur, shopper, laundress, cleaner, etc.
Your worth is not measured by your weight or your clothing size.
Very well said!! I was thinking the same thing
Very well said, and so kind.
Well said, mama...thank you for this comment ❤
So darn true. Amen sister!
You’re amazing and inspiring and fun to watch. Your weight is not something I think about when watching you. I’m sharing this because most of us are watching you for all the reasons listed above not to judge you. Thank you for being honest and truthful as this is also refreshing to watch. You have real struggles like we all do and I love how you talk about them!
I like seeing her different cool glasses.😀
The fact the weight loss and obesity are so shamed in this country is ridiculous. Every person needs to do what is best for them and use what ever tools they want. You do you! Good luck with all your other medical issues. You will get through this.
It shouldn't be associated with shame, it should be treated as the health concern that it is
Obesity is not healthy.
I think that shame is a necessary tool used to hopefully prevent us from doing things that aren't good for society as a whole. We can't say everything is okay when it's not. This woman is 100 lbs overweight.
@@shondacheesecake Insulting comments are not helpful, though.
@@shondacheesecakeshame is absolutely not necessary! People that don’t struggle with weight issues have NO clue what we deal with and how damn difficult it can be to lose. Shaming sure doesn’t help. I’ve lost 40 pounds this year and would like to lose another 50. It’s been slow going but I’m heading in the right direction. But shaming me certainly wouldn’t have helped any.
I'm am laterally 2 minutes into the video and I just need to let you know that we all go through seasons in our life where we are super focused on our health and well being and there are other seasons where we just don't have the mental space for our own selves. As mothers we often put our own journey on the back burner. You are beautiful just for being you!!! You will find the strength when you do, and don't feel guilty if that takes time to get there.
Oh Jen. You are far from a failure. I see you as a trooper, you never quit. You shake it off and get back into the game again. Very determined and very inspiring to watch your journey. You are not close to being done with anything. I did not like exercise but I can walk. Every morning before work and in the evenings (45 minutes to 1 1/2 hours) whatever time I could. Just became a part of my daily routine. Made me feel so good. You will figure out you, what will work for you. You are a beautiful person inside and out and I am here cheering you to that finish line where ever that might be. Stay positive. You have quite a sense of humor that helps you through as well. Take a rest, kick those feet up, and be kind to yourself over the holidays. Enjoy your family and let this stuff melt away from your mind for a little while. Merry Christmas with good memories!
The amount of guts it took, not only to record this, but to post it is outstanding! ❤❤
Also, laughing about it beats crying! Be a smart ass! 😘
As a fellow person who struggles with their weight let me commend your bravery for sharing it on social media. It's really hard to lose weight ,this is what worked for me but I realize we have vastly different lives. I wish you the best on your journey ❤
In late October of 2022 I started going on walks with my husband ( at almost 300lbs) short walks but we went every day, it meant snow and ice gear in the winter (and spring , we're in Canada) We took tea, picnic lunches ,started foraging, anything to make it more interesting. I now walk 6-10k a day at soon to be 53 years old( 4-6 1/2 miles) and have lost 85lbs,I'm still not under 200lbs but I'm getting there. I'm sure if I changed my eating habits I'd get there faster but I like calorie rich foods ( butter and cheese are life)
I definitely know where you’re coming from. My highest weight was 312 lbs and I’ve lost about 124 lbs. I consistently exercise daily and I love it now but in the beginning I struggled and had to force myself to do it because my feet and back would ache so much. But it’s definitely worth it because I’m no longer in pain and at 46 yrs old I have truly never felt better.
When you are dealing with Hypothyroidism weight loss is a completely different tactic. Your body functions differently. Focus on your health and please do not classify yourself as fat based on what ignorant people comment. You are an incredibly intelligent person who brings so much joy and happiness to people all over the world. You are perfect in every way and people here look forward to what you have to offer.
This was a powerful video. Sharing has healing power and I guarantee you are not alone. I felt like you were telling my weight struggle issues I would definitely move forward with preventive mastectomy.
Thank you for putting all this out there. I empathize and identify with this entire weight conversation. The WHOLE THING! I am 43 and, yes, I to have 100lbs to lose. My goal is actually 90lbs.
I have struggled with weight loss for many years. My doctor did offer Wegovi prescription to help me, finally! I just started the injections 3 days ago. I felt ok, and unbelievable, the noise for food does go away. My doctor said that as I get to the end of the week, you may start feeling hungry again, and then you knows it’s probably close to the day for the next injection. I will take this weekly. I was started on a low dose, and will ramp up every few week. My goal is to lose 65 lbs. I’m excited to see where this new journey takes me. Wishing you luck and I will be following right along with you
Thank you for sharing!!
Where did you find the lower dose? My dr prescribed this as well but I cannot find a pharmacy with the lower doses.
Thanks for your honesty and being a smart a$$. You ROCK!
I know exactly what you are going through. Without going into detail, I just want to let you know you'll be in my prayers that all will be ok. Stay strong.
It's awesome that you're being so candid. Do what you feel is right for you. Take the medication, have the mastectomy, do all the things! Oh, I'm 54 and STILL hate exercise 😂.
I love walking the neighborhood for 3 miles daily and then I get on my stationary bike for 30 minutes a day. You got this!!
You're brave and strong. Hang in there Jen, praying for you.
YOU GOT THIS JEN!!!
Thank you for being so open with your journey
I’m with you Jen. Hopefully this new year will be the one!
We love your channel! Keep up the great work!
Thank you so much for this video. I first found your channel with a failed bariatric search. I was so frustrated that my surgery didn't "work" and everyone on youtube who had had it was successful. It was the reality of what I needed to hear. It does not work for everyone and it rarely allows you to loose all the weight you want. I have battled with my weight all my life and you make me feel normal in my struggle, and optimistic to keep trying. Thank you so much. I couldn't imagine how hard it is for you to put your journey out for the public.
With exercise, I found a CrossFit like gym that I go to twice a week. It is classes so I have to go at certain times on certain days which gets my ass in there, also it is the same people so they are now friends and support. On off days I walk. Either with my very slow dog, or to the pub and back for lunch with my husband (I'm in the UK so Pubs are more like restaurants, we don't day drink, lol), or to the caffe and back, or to do some sketching. Having a reward or purpose involved helps me make it happen.
Thank you for sharing your story. You are in my prayers. Your story encourages women to take their health in their own hands and not depend on just what Dr suggest. You Got this!!!
Best wishes!! Thanks for keeping it real!!
Praying for you Jen🙏 Be blessed always❤
Amen Jen! I’m gastric sleeve failure, I get pissed when asked where I am in my “journey”, I am older than you and the knees are gone etc etc. I’m barely pre diabetic, but the copay on Ozempic was $400…so screw that. I am SO damn tired of HAVING to think about what I eat every waking moment! I’m just old and cranky enough to decide I’m through with that. By now I know what I should or shouldn’t eat and how much (1-2 slices of pizza…not the whole pizza) and I think I’m doing a pretty good job with my on the spot choices. Love you girl! Isn’t it funny that people think we don’t know about our weight and they feel obligated to point it out. (Yeah BITCH? Well your concealer isn’t concealing a thing!!). …..I told you I’m cranky🫢. Ok! 2024 will be a great year!! Thanks for sharing the struggle! ❤🐾
Good luck on your health journey! I hope everything turns out ok!
*Ughhhhhh food noise. yes. I hate it. Thank you for being vulnerable with us, makes me (and many others, I'm sure) feel seen. I've gained a lot of weight in the past year and a half due to medication changes, autoimmune inflammation, etc and I will be 40 in May. I feel like I cannot drop a single pound even when I try things that have worked for me in the past.*
Thank you for this conversation. I wish you the best.
You are such an inspiration praying for you and we are here for you
I love your videos like this - you speak to my soul. We got this, Jen! Praying for you with your breast health issues. Merry Christmas!
Thank you for telling my identical story -- except -- every time you say, “lose weight” substitute “stop smoking.” The struggles are real and no joke. Not to mention a pain in the ass. 🤣Much love. 😊xo
You always seem so strong and determined. Love all your videos ❤❤❤ Hang in there!!
Thanks for sharing. You do what you've gotta do. You've got this.
We love you Jen!!!
Please keep the videos coming - any topic is fine! I love your content!
I'm sorry to hear that you're dealing with so much. Appreciate your honesty and sharing. Take care of yourself!
Thank you for sharing Jen. You are so relatable. I just love you!
I can relate to this so much!! Thank you for being honest and transparent. I don’t feel so alone that nothing is working…been struggling so much lately.
Thank you for being so raw and honest! I too go through the daily thoughts and struggle with weight!! You’re amazing and are helping so many!!! ❤❤❤❤
Best of luck to you going forward with your weight loss journey and the results of your testing.
Rooting for you!
I LOVED this video Jen. So many of us share your struggle with weight. It’s nice to not feel alone in the frustration and battle. Merry Christmas and all the best to you and your family in 2024 ❤
Jen that is so much to have going on. I will be praying for you!

I totally relate. Best video you’ve done!! ❤️🙏
I’m really pulling for you Jen. You’re smart to check your health and be so proactive. Hugs and Merry Christmas 🎄

Kick Cancer's ass Jen
Oh man jen that really sucks. I am so sorry you're dealing with all this. I hope you get good news on all fronts. Love and hugs from Texas 💕 ps tell the kids Merry Christmas from Texas 💕
Jen you are a fantastic person. Wishing you the best ❤.
You are so raw and open and honest and it’s so appreciated out here on the internet where so many people seem so curated and staged! Sending love and prayers for negative tests and positive results! Weight loss is HARD and you are not alone.
Just wanted to say, thank you Jen!
Thank you for being real, thank you for your honesty and thank you for putting yourself out there. You are an inspiration to me.
I’m loving your attitude about this! You are so funny and real! It’s a struggle for us all!😂
Your video spoke volumes to me. I have struggled with weight all my life. Thank you for your honesty! Good luck with your weight loss journey!
So sorry also to hear about what you have been going through.. sounds so upsetting and stressful. So understandable you “fell off the wagon” all the best Jen x
The most helpful thing I did to help with exercise was getting a trainer.
I used to HATE weight lifting until I met her. I was with her for about a year and a half and she cleared up all the fog of it and now I work out by myself and organize my own workouts from home.
She helped me so much and made gave me skills and tips that I will keep for a lifetime.
You’re wonderful, you are a real and authentic person on a social platform that can be brutal. Thank you for sharing your life and experiences with all of us, you are very relatable! That’s what makes you so special- you’re just like us!
Thinking of you and praying you’re doing well. Thank you for your honesty and vulnerability.
This is brave! (Not snarky)
We’re rooting for you!!! I so appreciate your transparency here .
i can relate to recent weight gain and its making me miseable. thanks for sharing and wishing you the best with the other stuff going on!
Well said! Thank you! I feel the struggle as well and you said exactly how I feel !! So Thank you!!!
You are amazzzing! I’m ready again for the new year! ❤🎉
Never related to a UA-camr more than this video! Thank you for sharing. 😊 Happy Holidays!
Jen, I totally understand.. you are fine. live life . Be happy enjoy every minute! Don’t stress over food. I’m going through the slow progress of this crap too! You are an inspiration!
Prayers for good health results. I struggle too. I hate it. I admire your honesty. People are rude. Merry Christmas and we are all in this together.
100% agree with everything you said. It’s mentally draining and I do as well think about it every hour of every day. Keep trying and never give up you got this ❤
So brave of you to share your health story. Wishing you all the best this year.
Jen, thank you for sharing. I identify with more than you know. You do what you need to do for you and forget everyone else!
I love your sense of humor, Jen. Good job on not letting the muggles get to you. Sending prayers.❤
Thank you for sharing everything jen❤ I am very inspired by you and your channel. You are the best ❤❤❤❤❤
Jen, I think you are an amazing and beautiful woman. I am so sorry you are going through this uncertain time. You have lots of love coming to you through your channel. Thank you for being so open and real. ❤
I really admire your honesty about such a personal, difficult subject. It’s not easy to be so open about our failures. None of us is perfect!
Thank you for sharing your journey.
Jen, you are always such a bright light even when you’re struggling. Everyone is going through something and we’ll get through it together!! Please don’t feel pressured to post videos, we’re not going anywhere. Your health and family come first before anything. Love you girly!! Keep your head up, you are my motivation!! ♥️
🤣😂i needed to hear this for me cause struggling to with weight and have my whole life! Thank you for your honesty and humor cause its like chatting with a dear friend! 💕
I hope nothing but the best for you 🙏
Jen thank you for this. I'm a middle aged mom and a nurse who has also gained back and struggled this year and just not feeling alone helped me. Thank you for sharing
I love you being candid, Jen. As one who also struggles with weight (and have my whole life) I understand where you’re coming from. People can be brutal, but let those naysayers gab. You do what is best for you. Thank you for your honesty and transparency. Congrats on this new weight loss goal. I’ll be praying for you. Be blessed and Merry Christmas! ❤️🎄
Thanks for sharing about yourself. So many things you said ring true in my life also. Keeping you in my thoughts with your health as you work through next steps.
I love how open and honest you are. So incredibly vulnerable as well. I’m literally 30 and LOVE your videos and it always feels like such a safe space here 🫶🏻 Be gentle on yourself.. you’re doing amazing! Great mother, wife, successful, down to earth, and a great cook! We all fail in some aspect or another and I love that you have such a fun spirit about it. Sending you a lifetime amount of love and good vibes for this upcoming new year 🎉🤍
I’m so so sorry I know it’s stressful, you are beautiful and I hope hope hope you have a very healthy 2024!❤️❤️❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
You’re inspiring and I love that you keep it real! The book “fast like a girl” has changed my life
Thinking of you. Such a hard time of year to go through these things. Glad you got your mammogram and caught it early!
😂😂😂 You are such a joy, Jen. Just keep calling those haters out and do your thing!!! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Jen, going forward just take care of yourself. Do what is best for you and don't let the .... get you down. ❤️🙏🏻
I loved the honesty in this video! As far as exercising goes, I despise it as well. However, I was diagnosed with high cholesterol (despite my healthy eating habits thanks to Celiac's). My doc said start walking on a regular basis, and I am on medicine for it too. It's definitely a genetics situation for me, so I knew I had to whatever I could control. So I put on a video-almost always yours-and walk on my treadmill just about every evening after I feed the dogs. It was difficult at first, but now it has become part of my daily routine. You have a busy life as a mom and wife, so it's easy to understand how your health isn't always priority because your family's health and well-being is. Sometimes we have to stop and take care of ourselves, though! You are a strong woman, and you can definitely get through this! I will be here cheering you on! Happy holidays!
Yes food noise is gone! You’re going to love it! Good luck on your health journey. Thank you for being honest and sharing your life with us.
Thank you for sharing Jen. Thank you for bringing brave enough to share your journey, in doing so you give a voice to so many women. Sending you and yours huge hugs for Christmas and may 2024 magnify your efforts for health and happiness xxx
Good luck Jen. Its a hard thing to deal with I know but u can do it!!!
As a 36 y/o woman who has fluctuated everywhere from 350lbs to 175lbs in their adult life - I FEEL YOU GIRL! I've been told SO MANY times to "just lose weight" to fix my problems by Dr's. I was in my mid-twenties when I weighed 175 and I was eating so few calories a day I was literally blacking out and my Dr was like "Well, once you get down to your bodies healthy weight (in his opinion, 135) it will stop causing that to happen. Your body is telling you to lose weight." The things we deal with is completely ridiculous.
I'll leave you with a thought that I've used to get me through the high-highs of my weight issues: I come from a family of addicts. Smokers, drinkers, pain meds, the harder stuff. There are a massive amount of addicts in my family. I know that my addiction is food. I get it. But the difference between food and every other addiction you can have is that you have to have food to live. You can't quit food cold turkey. You can't just stop buying it so its not in the house to temp you. You literally need it to live. For those of us who struggle with it, it will always be a struggle. Sometimes my will power is stronger than others.
I wish you the best of luck with finding out what's going on surgery wise and may you continue to give yourself some grace in all aspects of your life.
Well said and so true.
You can eliminate the addictive foods, flour , sugar, grains, carbs vegetables and fruits!!!
I loved this candid video! I will pray that you heal and that the breast issue becomes a non issue. Hugs!
First and foremost, my prayers will be with you but secondly, u are amazing, beautiful, sweet soul! I love your content and I am with u! Losing weight is hard but let's be accountable buddies! So many of us will join u on this lifestyle change. So here's to u Jen! U got this🎉❤
You are down to earth and so likeable, I really admire you and wish you nothing but the best in your life ❤
