sister Wives Janelle is praising Brown’s fitness journey.
It has changed my life in more ways than just one.
Janelle rids herself of Cody…and an impressive 100 pounds!
Now, she’s opening up to fans about everything she’s learned during this incredible process.
Janelle Brown shared some valuable lessons while showing off her slim new face on her Instagram Story.
“7 things I wish I knew sooner,” she began her list.
“1. It’s okay to be yourself,” Jenelle wrote. It may sound obvious… but maybe not to someone with Jenelle’s background.
“2. Be kind and giving,” Janelle advised, “but protect your personal self.”
Her list continued: “3. Have personal boundaries.
And, relatedly, Janelle suggested that her fans and followers heed another piece of wisdom: “4. Don’t apologize for your limitations.”
“5. It’s okay to not fit in at times. Eventually, you find your tribe,” Janelle wrote.
“6. You get out of life what you deserve.” “this is gospel.”
And the last item was another tie-in: “7. It can be hard to realize #6 above.
One can totally understand why Janelle needed these affirmations.
She spent decades of her life married to Cody Brown.
Now, Janelle might not have felt like a “dungeon wife” like Kristin or suffered as obvious and long-term rejection as Mary, but… she didn’t fare much better either.
There was no way to be happy—there was no way to move on—when Janelle was with Cody. Not for him, not for Christine, not for Mary. Not even for Janelle’s kids.

Janelle may struggle with things like emotional independence and a sense of self-worth. Fast forward to this whole time after she broke up with Cody, and now see her!
In addition to getting rid of Cody, Janelle also surprisingly lost weight.
It’s not unusual for people’s lifestyles to change dramatically—for better or for worse—after a divorce or big breakup.
For Janelle, it was an opportunity to start a fitness journey. And it was also an opportunity for him to learn some valuable lessons about his own worth as a person.
Obviously, Janelle’s body — and the changes to it — are both ethically neutral and totally her business.
But we’re happy with any changes she makes, as long as they make her happy.
Janelle deserves to find happiness in her own way.
