Hello Friends,

I’m answering all the fitness questions on today’s blog post. The past couple of weeks I been getting some messages on Instagram regarding my fitness. As you all know I train 5 to 6 days of week, and love showing you guys my workout routines on Instastory. Working out for me helps releases stress, elevates my energy level and makes me feel great when I’m done.

One of the most popular questions I get is, How do I know how to workout? When Dan and I lived in Las Vegas I had in amazing trainer that taught me everything about fitness. Her name is Myranda Watkins and I trained with her for 5 years. She taught me how to lift weights  with correct form and taught me high intensity workouts also. I highly suggest investing in a good trainer. It is worth every penny! If you are on a budget and can’t afford a trainer, Alexia Clark is huge on Instagram and she breaks down all her workouts.

What do I eat for breakfast?  Breakfast starts my day off right.  I usually have 5 egg whites with tomatoes, onions , avocado and morning star veggie bacon. As for my carbs, I usually mix it up and have 1/2 cup raw oat meal (no sugar added) with cinnamon and blue berries. I also like eating Ezekiel tortilla, which you can find at Whole Foods or Trader Joe’s.

How long did it take to see results? I saw results on my body after 2 months working out hard and eating super clean. Mixing up my  workouts with high intensity and doing low impact workouts has helped too.

If you can give advice to a person that is trying to workout for the first time what would it be? I would highly recommend doing high intensity workouts with some resistance bands and cardio. This will challenge their body and they will see results fast.

Do I have a Cheat Meals?Yes yes I do. I look forward to my cheat meal because I deserve to treat myself with my favorite dish. It’s my reward for working out hard 5 days out of the week. I never deprive myself. I love to food to much and usually have one cheat meal on our date night, which I look forward too.

I’m not a trainer but these are things that have help me with my fitness. Eating better, working out 5 to 6 days a week, lifting weights with resistance bands and doing 30 minutes of cardio  everyday.

If you guys have more question please ask! I look forward answering your questions.

Cheetah print is back in trend my friends! I’m not sure if you are a animal print lover but  animal print is huge this fall. I’m so happy that October is here, because I get to decorate my entire house with spooky items. Now let me get back to my cheetah look that I’m currently loving for fall. This cheetah skirt from Reformation is super stylish and fits your body well. I think this skirt will sell out pretty quick so if you are a fan, make sure to purchase this skirt soon. Everyone needs some cheetah in their closet. It’s great to wear for work and after work as well.

Finally, I like how this adorable brown sweater from Chriselle Lim compliments this cheetah print and also goes well with denim. The color tone of the sweater is great because it goes  with all fall colors. Not sure how long animal print will stick around but let me know in the comments if you are a animal print lover. Thank you for stopping by!

Hello Friends,

I can’t believe that Summer is coming to an end! I’m super estatic for fall to finally arrive. One of my go to dresses that I wore a lot this summer was this casual stripe dress from Mango. It’s a comfortable dress that has a tie knot detail around the waist band, which is flattering. I really want to highlight how I love this basket pom pom bag that complemented the dress well. Everyone needs to have a fun bag in their closet. It’s great for a day out and after work as well.

Finally, I just want to thank all of you for following me through my blog or social media. I don’t think Uptown Fashion By Jess would still be here without you. So stay tune I will be having some great posts coming this fall. Thank you again!
