Hannah Jiles, aged 27, is not just an inspiration for her fans of “Love Is Blind” a reality series of Netflix because of her charismatic on-screen presence, but also due to her significant achievement in physical health.
Being in the public eye, Jiles boldly highlights the transformation she has undergone, showcasing how she drastically lost weight since the filming of “Love Is Blind”‘s seventh season. This October, she took to the digital platform TikTok and shared a video that left her followers awestruck. The video depicts the extraordinary change in her weight since the time she was part of the beloved Netflix sensation.
Jiles’s own twist to the latest viral trend involved a combination of Dakota Fanning’s lines from her 2003 movie “Uptown Girls” and an utterly distinctive leap to fame. Donning a striking black mini dress, she lip-synced to the dialogue, “Take a look around, do you see her anywhere? News flash. You’re not gonna,” thus referring to her old self prior to her prominent weight loss. The video was no less than a shocker for the viewers, demonstrating how health transformation could lead to changes so drastic and remarkable.
Contributing to the video is her caption, where Jiles wrote- “Same girl, just a healthier mindset.” With her transformation, Jiles has spoken volumes about achieving physical fitness and adopting healthier living standards through the soundness of one’s mental health.
Jiles’s journey had not been a smoothened path always. In her reality show “Love Is Blind,” she was seen discussing her struggles with weight issues. Other than just being candid about her weight loss journey, Jiles also confided in her co-star, Leo Braudy, about her childhood. She confessed having her mother lock the kitchen cabinets to restrict her from over-snacking, a habit many can relate in this generation.
Talking about her weight during the pandemic times, she acknowledged gaining weight but clarified that she was never fat. However, she did admit that weight has always been a sensitive issue for her. Last year, she went on to lose 45 pounds, which was indeed an impressive achievement.
Though her show encouraged connections beyond physical appearances, Jiles chose to talk about her weight loss journey from the get-go. She believes that her weight loss is an essential part of her life and journey, turning out to be her biggest insecurity. Opening up about it was a step towards embracing herself, which she found significant.
Speaking about her experience, she states that her continual mention of her weight shouldn’t disclose how she looks. Viewers could judge or estimate her weight, but she confidently asserts her story and personal journey because that reflects who she truly is.
With her inspiring life journey, Jiles has undeniably become a beacon of hope for those striving to lead a healthier lifestyle. At the same time, she embraces her true self and encourages others to do the same. Her transformation, both mentally and physically, has been nothing less than inspiring, proving that with the right mindset, anything is achievable.
