Jazz Jennings has been flooded with praise after she showed off her 100lb weight loss in some before and after photos.
In June 2021, Jazz revealed that she was struggling with a binge-eating disorder, which, along with medication-related appetite changes, led her to gain nearly 100 pounds in less than two years.
At that time, she shared her determination to reclaim her health, writing, "I’m ready to take the initiative and create positive changes when it comes to my health and body," per E Online.
Well, it appears Jazz kept to her word as she revealed her incredible transformation.
"I'm so proud of my progress," Jazz wrote in her August 26 post, adding: "I want to thank my family, friends, and all who supported me in getting there!"
Jazz also reflected on her evolving approach to health, emphasizing that maintaining wellness is a continuous process.
"Good health is not a certificate you display, it is a constant effort! I still have room for improvement, but I am more motivated and inspired than I've been in years. Let's keep it going!" she noted.
The Being Jazz author has received an outpouring of support from her family.
Her older sister Ari commented: "So inspiring," while her brother Sander added: "So proud to be by your side every step of the way! You inspire me so much. Keep pushing towards your goals."
Jazz's mother, Jeanette, also expressed her pride, writing: "Sooooooo proud of you! I love you so much."
Messages of praise have flooded in from other fans too, including Raymond Braun who wrote: "I’m so proud of you and supporting you every step of the way. I’d love to go on a run together. Love you!"
Another fan said: "Great job girl!!! Wish I could get the running down! U look amazing but honestly u are beautiful either way! [sic]"
A second person said: "Great job Jazz, keep going, you are doing amazing!!!!"
This isn't the first time Jazz has updated fans on her journey.
In January, she shared that she was down 70 pounds, posting a beach photo on Instagram with the caption: "Feeling happier and healthier than I've been in years.
"I still have a ways to go, but I'm so proud to finally be taking the necessary steps toward bettering my mind, body, and spirit."
Jazz often shares messages of encouragement to her followers, with one reading: "Take care of yourself and do things that make you happy and light.
"We can always strive to be better, and choosing to be the best version of yourself allows you to soar to heights higher than ever before."
