Hi! My name is Jacqueline! When I was at my heaviest I was over 500 pounds. It was hard to do anything and I definitely was not living the life I wanted. I was unhappy, felt stuck and did not love myself. Finally I decided enough was enough and I took control back of my life. As of today I have lost over 300 pounds. I am also in the process of having excess skin removal surgery. My journey was far from easy. It was filled with many ups and downs. It took hard work, sacrifice and never giving up, even if it was challenging. It took blood, lots of sweat and many tears. But I would not have changed a thing. It taught me to fight. It taught me to never give up. And most importantly it taught me to believe in myself! My journey is still far from over, and I still have a long way to go but I can honestly say I am doing so much better! Along my journey I did not only lose a lot of weight, but I gained my life back! There is no stopping me now! It's never too late to fly! . . . . #jacquelineadan #jacquelinesjourney #effyourbeautystandards #selflove #lovemybody #lovemyshape #weightloss #weightlossjourney #weightlosstransformation #weightlossmotivation #beforeandafter #beforeandafterweightloss #extremeweightloss #wlstories #onaquest #bodybuilding #bodytransformation #bodybuildingcom #poparmy #transformation #transformationfitnation #trainlikeabeastlooklikeabeauty #transformationtuesday #tuesdaytransformation #fit #fitspo #igweightloss #fattofit #naturalweightloss #fitfam

Adan está aprendendo a amar seu próprio corpo. Neste ano, ela viajou ao México, e usou um maiô pela primeira vez em muitos anos – o que foi um grande passo para ela. “Eu estava nervosa em me descobrir e andar até a piscina ou até a praia”, ela confessa na legenda de uma foto no Instagram. “Eu ainda me sentia como aquela mesma garota com mais de 300 quilos”.

Então, a blogueira conta que assim que se descobriu, percebeu que um casal que estava na piscina começou a rir e a apontar para ela, fazendo “piadas” sobre seu corpo (vamos falar a verdade: ofensas gordofóbicas NÃO podem ser consideradas piadas).

OMG I am so beyond thankful and appreciative of all of the love that has surrounded me after I posted about being body shamed in Mexico! Body confidence and body positivity is something I am very passionate about! I feel that there is so much negativity that surrounds people who are different and I feel that it is our job to raise each other up and not tear each other down! True happiness comes from within and being truly happy with yourself is all that matters. I am attaching some articles that were recently written about my experience about people body shaming me!

“Então o que eu fiz? Dei um grande suspiro, sorri e andei até a piscina”, diz Adan. “Foi um momento muito importante para mim. Eu havia mudado. Eu não era mais a mesma menina”.

Ela confessa que se incomodou com os comentários do casal e ainda se sente insegura às vezes, mas está determinada em não deixar o que as outras pessoas pensam impedi-la de viver sua vida. “Elas não me conhecem. Não sabem como eu me esforcei para perder mais de 100 quilos. Elas não sabem que ainda estou me recuperando de cirurgias sérias. Elas não têm nenhum direito de ficarem sentadas apontando para mim e rindo de mim. É por isso que sorri”.

E terminou com a seguinte mensagem: “Não importa o que os outros dizem, ou se eles duvidam de você ou tentam te deixar para baixo. O que importa é como você reage a isso. Como você se sente sobre si mesma. Amar você mesma exatamente do jeito que você é difícil; outros podem não gostar disso. E tudo bem. Espero que você ame a si mesma. Ame o seu corpo. Espero que você continue sendo como é e continue sorrindo!”.

When we were on vacation in Mexico a few weeks ago, it was the first time I had worn a bathing suit in a long time, and it had been even longer since I wore a bathing suit without a cover up. I was nervous to take my cover up off and to walk into the pool or walk on the beach. I still felt like that same 500 pound girl…then it happened. A couple sitting by the pool started laughing and pointing at me and making fun of me as soon as I took my cover up off. So what did I do? I took a deep breath, smiled and walked into the pool. That was a huge moment for me. I had changed. I was not the same girl anymore. Yes I still have a lot of loose skin, I may still feel insecure at times, and yes I may still get made fun of. To be honest, yes it bothered me. But I was not going to let people like that affect me anymore! I am not going to let what other people think of me stop me from living my life. They do not know me. They do not know how I have worked my ass off to lose 350 pounds. They do not know how I am recovering from major surgeries. They have no right to sit and point and laugh at me. That's why I smiled. It does not matter what others say or if they try to doubt you or try to bring you down. What matters is how you react to it. How you feel about yourself. Loving yourself just the way you are is hard. Others might not like that. That's ok. I hope you love yourself. Love your body. I hope you keep doing you and just keep smiling! . . . . . #jacquelineadan #jacquelinesjourney #effyourbeautystandards #selfloveclub #selflove #lovemybody #lovemyshape #loveyourself #teamself #extremeweightloss #weightloss #weightlossjourney #weightlosstransformation #weightlossmotivation #beforeandafter #beforeandafterweightloss #wlstories #onaquest #bodybuildingcom #bodypositive #bodyconfidence #bodyposi #transformationfitnation #motivationmonday #mondaymotivation #fitfam #fitspo #bodytransformation #igtransformations #transformationjourney
