Jessy's Fitness and Lifestyle

Hello,

My name is Jessica. Welcome to my page. I hope this finds your, day, afternoon, evening, or night, wherever you might be pleasing and hope you enjoy your stay.

A little about myself is I am 25 years old. I have 2 babies, an amazing and supportive husband, and I am a fitness/nutrition crazy. I am always looking for way to increase my fitness level and better my nutrition. I know for a fact, that if something work for me, it might work for someone else.

So, how did all this fitness craziness started you may ask? Well about 21 years ago, when I was a child and could do whatever I want haha (not really) I found myself on the operating. I was having open heart surgery. As scared as I was, I went in and not knowing if I was going to come out, I said I love you to my parents. My moms says I was 12 hours in surgery, and some doctors said to my mom to prepare for the worst. However, I came out of surgery and to the recovering table.

I was always an active little girl. At elementary school, I always found my way to sports and extracurricular activities. I was so drawn to them. After some visits to my Cardiologist, they said that I could not do extensive exercise because it could be “bad for my heart”. But I never listen. I would always strive for the best, for what felt right to me. Whenever someone told me I cant do something I would prove myself I could and prove them wrong. So I started to join teams at school, soccer, cross country, track and field, and so many more. Mainly all of them had to do with some sort of cardiovascular, and stamina sport. Through out the years, my cardiologist would always say that I need to be careful. But I always wanted to do more. Yes, I would feel out of breath, I would feel that I could not do it anymore, but I would push myself. Then I got detected with Athletic Induce Asthma. I hardly ever use the inhaler the cardiologist gave me. I just felt it was not necessary. I would feel worst when I did use it.

So then I met my husband. He was a sports freak as I was and am, so we would go out and do 6-10 mile runs every other day. He would push me and always say that I could do better than the day before. Soon after, I believed him. I was doing better. My stamina was getting better. But my Cardiologist still said that I should be CAREFUL. I was so mad at myself. I felt that I was doing something wrong. So when I got pregnant, my OB send me to another cardiologist. This cardiologist said, that I did not need to be seen at all. All my HEART ULTRASOUND came out perfect, my heart even build a surrounding tissue around the close incision, the doctors mad, making my heart as normal as a regular person who never had a heart surgery. I was thrilled that all the hard work I had done up onto this point, it work out perfectly.

So Where does it come from? From me not listening and going for what I desire and not letting people say that I cant do it when I felt good doing it, I follow my body cues and always was going with what felt good to me and my body. No one knows what you could and cannot do the only person is you.

So I believe that you are meant for greatness that you could do anything and about everything you set your mind to. If you want to get fit, lets get fit. If you want to get skinny, let me help you with that. If you want to build lean muscle, lets work on it. If you need help with nutrition, ask me. I am more than happy to help anyone who wants to be in this journey, because together as a community we could do great things!!
