Intermittent Fasting: An Experiment

August 9, 2018Nutrition Leave a Comment on Intermittent Fasting: An Experiment

Hello August! Last week was such a blessed week even with two different Facebook trolling attempts. Good thing I began most days last week in prayer! My love of social media still stands. I have witnessed it do more good…

Hi there! I’m Jess.

  • As a runner, these are the days we dream about. Our Millie girl is sitting pretty after a morning walk. I’m enjoying more coffee post 2x2 miles in the park. We both are loving these cooler temps. It makes it easier to go farther and faster during cardio sessions . . #fall #fallrunning #falltemps #fallporch #dogsofinstagram #leonberger #leonbergersofinstagram #bigdog #paws #postrun #tracktuesday
  • New post hit just in time for #mealprepmonday !!! I included a simple step by step graphic with ingredient suggestions in the blog . . #mealprep #makeahead #homemade #buddhabowl #bowls #whatsfordinner
  • Weight training! It’s a discipline I have to practice. It isn’t as easy for me as going for a run. It takes more planning and choreographing on my part. It’s something I have learned to have an appreciation for. Nothing changes your body like weights! The fat burning component it offers leaves cardio in it’s dust. Cultivating an ideal weight loss program requires both, as well as good nutrition habits. I’m looking forward to introducing heavier options to my tribe this week! . . #heavy #lift #doyouevenlift #fatburning #trainer #trainerlife #fitlife #personaltrainer #trainertip #weights #strengthtraining #strength #strong #curves #thickthighs
  • I don’t need an excuse to simmer a huge pot of something, it’s one of my favorite fall activities. But it certainly is helping out as we detox from a fabulous food weekend that included sushi, froyo, ribs, and a Moscow Mule...or 2 ! Nothing but broth, vegetables, and fresh herbs in here. Did I mention our house smells amazing?! . . #soup #slowcook #vegetarianrecipes #soupersunday #soupsunday #slowsunday #plantbased #eatmoreplants #healing #healingfoods #foodismedicine #foodporn
  • I’d go anywhere with him! Last Saturday we ventured to Sandbridge for a mini road trip allowing us to slow down and soak up the sun. While we were there, I couldn’t help but notice what a fantastic fitness field trip this would be for any family. Head over to @getfamilyapp and read more on what to do, where to park, and even what to eat. I encourage you to make the drive this weekend for yourself ! . . #fitnessfriday #fitnessfieldtrip #roadtrip #sandbridgebeach #sandbridge #virginiabeach #virginiabeachfitness #littleisland #beach #sand #pier #fishingpier #adventure #cutoffs #beachparking #sun #vans #cutoffs #fall #fallfitness #fitnessfamily #familyfitness
  • Cooler temps finally made their way to Virginia. So naturally my clients and I and wondering “what to wear?” I hope you find this guide useful for your outdoor exercise. Remember layers are key ! . . #outdoors #outdoorexercise #fitnessapparel #whattowear #runningclothes #exerciseoutside #optoutside #fitnessclothing #runnersofinstagram #fallrunning #runningoutfit
  • If you’re on my client roster, you’ve heard me say, “We don’t deprive in this tribe!” It’s important to give our body a break from movement just as we must do when it comes to a structured eating plan. Take those indulgent opportunities as they are appropriate to your goals. It creates a healthier relationship with food, not to mention a quality of life factor that can’t be measured. It’s midweek and tonight I’m taking a pause ⏸ . . #winewednesday My friends know I’m not typically a wine drinker, but those @barefootwine single servings are perfect for nights like this. Because can we really leave an opened bottle alone 🍷🤷🏼‍♀️ . . #midweek #dontdeprive #treatyoself #wine #portioncontrol #wednesday #happyhour #oneglass #midweektreat #barefoot #red
  • Weekend recap: a little sweat, a little slow. Yesterday was 7 miles followed by a dose of the Autumn sun at the beach. Today, I didn’t leave the house and I spent the day cooking and cleaning from the comfort of my pajamas. I also went sans phone. I’d say I maxed out the weekend on my terms. How did you get your healthy on? . . #weekend #weekendrecap #weekendvibes #sunday #sundayrestday #feetup #sunshine #sandbridge #littleisland #beachchair #beachhairdontcare #vans #sunnies #beachblonde
