I guess I feel like many others. I am not sure if you are doing other ventures with your life which I would be happy and proud of you for doing. We all need other ventures in our life. I guess I just don't know what you are doing. I have notice you do a weeks work of videos then disappear for looong periods of time. I guess I just miss you and your workouts is all. There are not many on YT who have your caliber and ability to make you sweat buckets and get in shape…even if it is low-impact!!
What about nutrition? How to know if your eating too much or too little? I have the workout part of healthy living down but nutrition always seems to be my issue
Thanks Jessica. This Walk and Talk has such good, sensible information. Love what you do!
THANK YOU, Jessica Smith for bringing the WALK + TALK series!
I loved your message. Just what I needed to hear. I have trouble with all or nothing thinking so this message helped.
Thank you Jessica
I have always had the resistance to workout because I think exercising costs so much time — the prep, the exercising itself, the cooldown and the cleanup. But I found your indoor power walk sessions so appealing and really takes away a lot of pressure on the thought of spending lots and lots of time. I get to do it whenever I want at home. Thank you Jessica 🙂 I am very motivated by your pep talk "something is better than nothing!"
Hi Jessica, I have been a big fan for years! I just had foot surgery December 18,2017. At my six week check up I got the OK to do very limited, low impact exercising. Low and behold I found your chair workouts! They have been a life saver. It feels so good to do some type of movement! Thank you for being so versatile and thinking of everything! I have started doing one mile low impact walks and I did your Barefoot Fusion over the weekend. However limited I am at this time, I am grateful to have your videos. It is very difficult to feel motivated after surgery or an injury, but finding your chair workouts made a huge difference. Thank you!
I love the walk and talk videos. They get me off the couch when I'm not feeling like doing anything. I wish there were some more!
I work from home and your videos give me a quick hit of energy between meetings. Thank you for sharing your talent and keeping me motivated!
I love your workouts! You are so bright, cheery and positive that you DO make it fun! I was only walking outside for exercise before I did some Leslie Sansone walking videos and then someone recommended yours! You have helped me close my exercise activity ring on my Apple Watch! I’m a Weight Watchers member that has lost 73.6 lbs and you are helping me get to my goal that is still over 50 lbs away! 👍😊💜
hi jessica! just wanted you to know i enjoy your videos so much. today i just had too much to do, so i sort of did the 1 mile walk and talk while ironing some clothes 🙂
Thank you for these walk and talks it really helps me stay motivated!
Love these walk and talk videos you are an inspiration. Any advice on what to do after a bing eating session would be appropriated. Thank you
I looove your videos. I do a weight training app and then your videos tp get a total workout. Just this 15 minutes makes me sweat, i appreciate you!
I was sitting on my porch reading, after devouring a large ice cream cone I didn’t need. Then I got the guilts. I’m so glad I realized this was the perfect time for a one mile Walk and Talk. I feel invigorated and motivated to shake it off and get right back on track. So thanks, Jessica and Peanut, for always being here when I need you👍
I love what you're saying that something is always better than nothing. That is also what I always said to myself when i feel so lazy to move my ass. Thanks you so much
I quit smoking 9 months ago, and am really struggling with weight gain, super low self-esteem, and the depression that comes from all of it. These 1 mile walk-and-talks are perfect for the days I just. can't. do. anything. 15 minutes later and I feel sooo much better, mentally, physically, and spiritually. I just tell myself I just have to WALK for 15 minutes. I can always do that, so when it's ALL I can do, I still do it, and feel accomplished. Thanks!
Great walk…I could only do 5 minutes tonight…hope to do more tomorrow. Thanks, Jessica?
Thank you, Jessica and Peanut. This was perfect for a chilly and wet Derbyshire day inside. Peanut says, 'oh heck! I'm just having MY treat RIGHT NOW! That's what gets me forward!''
I can't thank you enough Jessica. You are total inspiration for those days I need to force myself into working out. THANKS!
Just what I needed today. Full of cold and was tempted to have a duvet day but didn't want to waste my day. My reasons to work out are so I have lots of get up and go even for the mundane jobs. Grocery shopping here I come before another walk and talk. Thank you for the inspiration Jessica.
Thank you for another great video! You help me stay on track!
Loved this, as I've loved every video of yours I've done! Thank you for doing this!!
Hey Jessica. Just stopping by to say thank you. I had a nasty fall last month and have been in recovery ever since. there were times when I got really bummed out and I did put on some weight but that's okay..Finally at the point where I can do a walk and talk! I'm so proud of myself and so grateful to you for teaching me to really listen to my body and have a balanced view of working out.. Oh and I've said this before but you helped me lose 30 kgs when I was 25. The hardest part of recovery was worrying that I'll put ALL the weight back on but in retrospect I know I'm being silly. There really is no finish line to maintaining a healthy weight is there. But yeah, thanks again.
"What is your Why?" Really great question to keep in mind for focusing in on any goal. Thanks for this series, I'm finding it really helpful when I'm feeling like I'm not up for a regular work-out.
Thanks for the workout and pep talk!
Thanks for the motivation..loving the positive blurbs on the side of the screen. Doing your video during mid shift work at night!
Thank you so very much for your inspiration videos. I just recently found them and absolutely love them. I am so grateful for my faith and that I am able to walk and working toward better health and to feel better about myself and of course weight loss. Thank you so much Jessica…..
This video is so relevant right now during our coronavirus pandemic! Trying to stay on track come heck or high water! My big why for fitness- my mental health! Cardio keeps the crazy away 🙂
These quick Walk and Talk sessions are a huge help right now during the time of social distancing, working from home, and quarantine/isolation. I'm getting more steps right now than I did while working in my office and look forward to continuing to do these once we're allowed out of our houses again. This, and os many of your other videos, are instrumental in keeping me healthy and moving. Thanks so much!! and Hi, Peanut!! waves
Thanks for the walk!
Can you make one for quarantine season? Maybe one for those who have lost jobs or loved ones and just starting to get back up again. Thank you for your inspiring talk.
I've just recently discovered your channel and this was exactly what I needed this morning because I did NOT feel like working out. I feel like I need to do it again just so I can write down all those amazing quotes! The biggest revelation I've had this week is that I can continue a healthy habit/a new creative project/a new business endeavor even if I lack the motivation some days and that I'm being way too hard on myself to expect I'll feel motivated EVERY day.
❤️❤️❤️
I love this I can't move well but these are great thank you so much. I feel we would all like more. For me life lines would be a great topic.
Thanks again
Another way to stay on track is to vary your workouts in length, content (strength, HIIT, cardio) and even source. And just walk outside in the fresh air for a change of pace and scenery.
Just did your workout for the 1st time LOVE it! Great topic and truly inspired to inspire others!!
Thank you for this! I was feeling rather unmotivated to do a huge calorie-blasting workout today so I went to your channel and clicked on this. It was really motivating and I think I might go workout a little more! Thanks again!
The music was a little loud making it hard to focus on the convo!!!
I forgot how helpful these are. Like tonight my stomach is killing me and I feel horrible, but like you said "something is better than nothing". So this walk definitely made me feel better, not so heavy. Thanks Jessica-haven't seen many new posts from you-hope you are doing well!
Thank you so much Jessica this is just what I needed to hear today! Had lost so much of my muscle strength during the lockdown for covid and now I'm working my way back up to a healthy level of fitness. Everyone of these quotes will help me stay on track. 🙏
Thank you Jessica for the short walk and talk sessions to keep me motivated to continue on my journey
