Paula Jones became popular with fans of the TLC show ‘My 600lb Life’ when she appeared on the show’s second season in 2014.
– Nothing to hide
After the series, Jones continued to update his social media followers on how things are going, years after he left the show.
The TLC star is completely unrecognizable in the photos she shares on Instagram, she writes To express.
“From the pool! Look at those shoulders in a bathing suit! Never would have guessed that,” she captioned the 2016 photo.
It doesn’t look like this anymore
Jones weighed nearly 250 kilograms and had recently lost her husband when she appeared in the series. Her husband died at the age of 33, due to health complications.
Suddenly she became a single mother of four, and therefore feared that her children would grow up without parents if she failed to lose weight.
With her life seemingly falling apart, Jones hoped her time on the hit reality series would help kick-start a healthier and better life for her and her family.
During the first year of her new lifestyle, Jones managed to lose nearly 300 pounds and said she weighs about 200 pounds today. She gave her new self-confidence and “her life back”.
It didn’t take long for fans to praise the reality star.
“I just saw your story! I’m so proud of you!!! Live life!” wrote one user under an Instagram post.
