Jazz Jennings<\/strong><\/a> has never felt better since losing 70 pounds.<\/p>\n

\u201c70 pounds down! Feeling happier and healthier than I\u2019ve been in years,\u201d Jennings, 23, wrote via Instagram<\/a> on Friday, January 19. \u201cI still have a ways to go, but I\u2019m so proud to finally be taking the necessary steps toward bettering my mind, body and spirit \ud83d\udc9c\ud83d\udc9c\ud83d\udc9c<\/span>.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tShocking, indeed! Some celebs seek out extreme methods to shed pounds, while others transform with the aid of healthier methods. From Rosie O’Donnell’s and Jordin Sparks’ respective 50 pound weight losses to Biggest Loser winner Rachel Frederickson’s whopping 155 lighter frame, see before and after pictures of celebrities’ weight loss transformations.\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cAs many of you have noticed, over the past few years, I have gained a substantial amount of weight,\u201d she wrote via Instagram<\/a> in June 2021, detailing her food addiction. \u201cMy binging, along with an increased appetite I experience from some of the meds I\u2019m on, has caused me to gain almost 100 pounds in a little less than 2 years.\u201d<\/p>\n

She added at the time, \u201cI\u2019m ready to change my ways; I\u2019ve been saying I\u2019m ready to turn over a new leaf, but I\u2019m running out of trees now. I\u2019m ready to take the initiative and create positive changes when it comes to my health and body. I have a fabulous team supporting me, both professionals and family\/friends, but at the end of the day, I have to be the one committed toward bettering myself. I know I have the power in me to lose the weight.\u201d<\/p>\n

Months later, Jennings revealed on her TLC docuseries, I Am Jazz, <\/i>that her struggles began when she was dealing with \u201csevere\u201d mental health issues<\/a> in 2019. (Jennings deferred her admission to Harvard University that year amid her mental health battle.)<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tNew year, new you! Now that the holidays have come and gone, it\u2019s time to focus on those new resolutions you\u2019re hoping to stick to. And if it\u2019s eating healthy and staying in shape, Us has you covered. Stars such as Molly Sims, Kate Walsh and more love intermittent fasting. (It\u2019s almost exactly what it [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cHaving all this extra weight, I can\u2019t do so many things with my body that I used to be able to do,\u201d she recalled during a November 2021 episode. \u201cI do experience fat-shaming from my family. It makes me feel really humiliated.\u201d<\/p>\n

Weeks later, Jennings explained in another episode that she was ready to lose the weight.<\/p>\n
