Real talk about fake people. Imagine if every waking hour of your life was a constant calculation aimed at maximizing your own personal standing, elevation, advancement, and monetary position? Every single opinion, every single conservation, every single action? How can I get more of an audience? How can I keep my audience? How can I sell more stuff? How can I get more media appearances? How can I get more speaking appearances?

How can I? How can I? How can I?

Jen is basically a woman who thinks that it's still 2005 and daytime and morning cable talk shows are where its at.

She thinks Oprah is some sort of goddess.

Can you imagine how boring and soul sapping this sort of life is?

The irony of having ones brand be authenticity and relatable-ness but basically being the most basic and predicable middle-aged influencer grifter ever?

I have an issue with people who preach authentically embracing ourselves and all our perceived flaws but who are dishonest in their own lives. It's hypocritical.
And for the sheer volume of word salad that Sarah issues, not one honest word about her weight loss.

I was really not referring to Sarah Bessy. I was never a follower and only know who she is from discussions here about her being one of Jen's cronies. Someone who scrubs her before the weight loss pictures from her profile does come across as authentic but who knows? Maybe she hates the way she looked when she was chonky.

To the best of my knowledge, Jen has never deleted old pictures and the weight loss has not been as dramatic as Sarah's. No matter what, choosing to have a public social media profile doesn't entitle anyone to your medical and personal info. Plus, expecting Jen to be truly authentic about anything is just laughable. Everything is curated and staged. The fact that she might or might not be using weight loss drugs is literally the least cringey thing about her little three ring circus.

Nope. Bikini tummy tuck pics. Yes, no one is entitled to any medical information. Except when they claim it’s just a clean diet and they’re outright lying about it.

The post is still up. It literally says, “It was nothing fancy, everything you know. Less Texas-sized portions, less garbage, basically no fast food, less drinking, way more veggies and good food.”

Ma’am, we can see your surgically altered belly button. You’re featuring it IN the pictures.

She’s the WORST.

No. She does not owe anyone an account of what medications she's taking. Sorry.

Then they should be quiet about it. The problem is that both Jen and Sarah have talked publicly about their weight loss and given sham explanations (and Sarah Bessey even denied taking it). Either explain it, or don't talk about it at all. But if you are telling everyone to "just nourish yourself" or "I just stoped putting crap in my body" as if that's all you did to lose a dramatic amount of weight in your meonpausal years when most women are gaining and fighting to lose, then you need to tell the whole story.

Someone should tell Sarah Bessay as well.

And no, I'm not a fan and I think she's one of the most plastic, annoying people on the internet and I honestly believe the people who know her IRL spend a lot of time rolling their eyes behind her back. But, nobody owes their "fans" that level of information. When she had her tummy tuck surgery, she told people "All it takes is a little less wine and a few more vegetables" or some such drivel, but come on. At least 90 percent of what this woman puts out there is an alternate version of the truth.

Sarah is another one who talks out of both sides of her mouth.
No woman over 40 drops weight like that unless they are seriously ill.

Wake isn't looking to have too many pre sales.

What? It was just clean living, going gluten free, and doing some Pilates.

My hot take is that you shouldn't hide your Ozempic use to your fans.

Another hot take: selling things that you claim to wear and use all the time but then are never actually photographed wearing, makes you a liar and full of shit.

Let’s post our own Big Sis Hot Takes.
Here’s mine:
Being a grandma and demanding to not be called “grandma” is peak a-hole behavior. I said what I said.

And I don’t think her new book is going to do well as well. This might be the last “manifesto”.
