Jillian Michaels suffered a spinal injury in 2021 that led her to believe her life was over. Michaels, 49, revealed the pain was "so bad," she had to "crawl on the ground" at times. "I wish it was some gangster motorcycle story where I told you I was racing motorcycles or Lindsey Vonn-ing downhill at 60 miles an hour, but it wasn't," Michaels told People magazine. "It makes it that much more disturbing, because in a way, it wasn't preventable." The "Biggest Loser" trainer admitted she was injured after slipping in the bathroom and hitting her back on the edge of the bathtub.
Michaels had been running into the bathroom to speak to her wife DeShana Marie Minuto. Despite the fall, Michaels did not immediately seek medical attention.
She experienced lower back pain for six weeks before heading to the hospital.The 49-year-old was told she had some sort of "nerve impingement" by doctors. "I couldn't sleep.The pain at night was so bad," Michaels explained. "I truly thought to myself, ‘The only thing I think would be worse than this would be burns.’ It was so crazy.
I couldn't walk, I couldn't sleep, I couldn't stand. I was having to crawl on the ground. I'm like, 'My life is over.'" Michaels sought further medical attention and was eventually told that she had fractured her L3 vertebrae.
