    Here I am at age 36 thinking that my weight loss has slowed down due to my age, yet this woman who's more than twice my age managed to lose an insane amount of weight with diligence and consistency. I'm done with the excuses. If she can do it, so can I! God bless this sweet woman :)

      Yeah after getting stuck in a vicious cycle of overexercising and eating less I've realised the real secret to losing weight is consistency so whatever you do make sure it's sustainable. Something you can do for a long time. Low impact cardio, weights and calories deficit.

    I found this video when I was living in a very unsafe neighborhood with several worsening health conditions in my 20s. I started walking around my apartment everyday and several years later I am much stronger, happier, and my conditions are much more manageable. I appreciate this woman sharing her story. Prior I never thought walking around my apartment "counted". Searched for the video just now because I was reflecting on how much this one video and one woman improved my life. Forever grateful.

    I am 28 years old and I live in a 1 bed room small apartment with my husband. I weigh over 220 lbs and today I started walking from my kitchen to my front door like Jessica did. Ajd I went to the kitchen sink and did squats. I tried the stool step that was probably not the best start lol but ik trying. It's only day 1 for me. But I know I can do it.

      @@ryangatien6615 Well, since “Movement IS medicine” it helped out in the respect of helping to keep my blood flowing throughout my body and it served pretty good in terms of some light cardio. Weight loss for me depends more on my diet than exercise and I literally have to do extreme dieting to see weight loss, which is still only temporary. It’s been an uphill journey for me especially since the pandemic, but I haven’t and I won’t give up! 😊

    In the summer of 2020 my neighbor walked back and forth on her front porch. Sometimes 15-20 minutes two or three times a day and sometimes up to an hour. She did this for almost 2 years. She totally transformed her body. I told her that i expect to look over at her walking on her porch and she'll disappear because she's worn the boards through. Now she goes to the gym for strength training. I need to get out of my recliner.
    I've lost six lbs in the past five days. I need to change my ways before its too late.

    I'm so glad I came across this. What an amazing role model Jessica is. I walk in my house every day too and have done so since September of 2020. Before I started walking in the house I used to take my dog out around the neighborhood and had done so for years but for some reason certain pet owners began allowing their dogs to run loose and even though my dog was on a leash she was attacked three times within a few weeks span. The last attack was done by a huge mastiff and I had to use pepper spray to get the dog off mine.
    After that incident I started walking in the house on a treadmill and a few weeks into that while on the treadmill I accidentally fell and fractured my right shoulder. That is what started me walking in my house, just back and forth at a leisurely pace and I walk four miles a day every day. I wear a pedometer so I know my exact mileage at any given time. I even continued doing some of the exercises I was given while in physical therapy to help my shoulder heal correctly and gain strength and flexibility, so a portion of my walking routine includes me using small hand weights to maintain that.

I'm also stage 4 liver failure due to a stabbing at work..(I'm a retired men's max prison Sgt and got stabbed in a riot.) I hated myself and thought pills were going to be a part of my life. I couldn't find a yoga class so I took TiaChi. My instructor introduced me to fighting with sticks, knives, daggers and swords. Now I'm 71, 160 pounds and can take out a full grown man's throat in 2seconds flat. Yep...the healthier you get.. the less MEAT you want.

    I am an 83 year old woman who walks at least 3 miles a day almost every day. I like to get outside to get vitamin D but I also walk in my 2 bedroom apartment often when the weather is to hot or to cold. I also have a Fitbit and keep track of how many steps I take. It’s usually a little over 7000 steps a day. I know most of the people in my apartment complex because of my walking so although it may help in keeping my weight down it’s also a social benefit. I Confess I’ve never had a weight problem and no one else in my family does either so I don’t walk to keep my weight down. I do it for my health and to stay active. You can be thin but still not be in good shape.
    I enjoyed seeing this video and applaud this lady for her motivation and determination.🎉

    This won’t help anybody that has diabetes, or that is insulin sensitive... any carbohydrates, highly sweet fruits, cereals, breads, pasta, fruit yogurts, will release insulin, and insulin is the fat storing hormone,.. . anything that falls under carbohydrates will raise the blood sugar of a pre diabetic.
    The ketogenic diet is actually in my opinion the proper human diet.
    There weren’t cave people running around with bags of sugar, chips, ice cream, bread, candy and cereal and back then men could out run a zebra in full a gallop .
    The best diet, to lose belly fat fast …the ketogenic diet which is a diet dealing with hormone balance….even in some cases of super insulin sensitive people, they can’t even have Stevia or substitute, alcohol sugars when it comes down to getting your weight very low. . Oh and yes, no booze. There are keto, friendly drinks, like tequila, gin, vodka…anything without a high sugar content alcoholic drinks , are not the best thing for your metabolism or a diet the body considers it a poison. Check out ketogenic Dr. Eric berg on UA-cam ..He has tons of videos. I watched his videos and lost weight, from 164 to 134 in 4 1/2 months, plus, lowered my blood sugar to 5.1 in the same amount of time. I do take a 10 mg Staten every three or four days to keep my cholesterol low and it works perfectly. I don’t really like statins, but when I use them that way, they don’t bother me.
