Let us find out.
The transformation
Jen has been cheering the contestants on the show The Biggest Loser for many years as they follow her advice and embrace a healthier lifestyle.
Jen thought that when she is advising others so much, why does she also not follow the same advice and feel good rather than only look good?
She then put this thought into action and underwent a great body transformation which was clear from her Instagram post.
She wrote that she had to undergo great mental and body transformation to reach her present state. She underwent weight loss herself and her after-weight loss picture is stunning.
She wrote:
“For a long time, I was completely unaware of how unhealthy my eating habits & routine were, Even though I was active, the sheer volume that I was consuming was out of control and I put no thought behind the foods I was eating.”

The weight-loss journey
Jen opened up about her losing-weight journey with her social media followers. Jen also shared with her subscribers how she decided to make the lifestyle changes.
She said:
“I chose workouts that I enjoyed vs. ones that I felt were like punishment. There are foods that I knew were healthy that I hated so I just avoided those. But I did focus on eating more vegetables, higher quality proteins and less food on the go/eating out. The biggest mental shift happened when I finally stopped working out just for my waistline and really began to make these decisions because I felt at my best when I did so. I own my #health now because I love who I am when I am connected to it. That’s what makes it stick for me, it’s never about fitting in a dress.”
