7 lapsen äiti ryhtyi elämään terveellisesti – on nyt kuin fitness-kaunotar!

Fitness Lifestyle · Terhi Piiroinen

Amerikkalainen Jessica Enslow synnytti ensimmäisen lapsensa 19-vuotiaana. Nyt nainen on 43-vuotias ja hänellä on yhteensä seitsemän lasta. Kuntoiluun ja terveellisiin elämäntapoihin hurahtanut Jessica Enslow on nykyisin paremmassa kunnossa kuin parikymppisenä.

Seitsemän lapsen äiti Jessica Enslow on saanut seitsemän lasta vuosien 1994 ja 2013 välillä. Nyt suurperheen äidistä on tullut Instagram-tähti lähinnä hänen sutjakkaan ulkonäkönsä ansiosta. Jessicaa luullaan usein hänen vanhimman tyttärensä, 22-vuotiaan Alyssan, isosiskoksi. Nainen aloitti terveysintoilun vuonna 2015.

Perheenäiti pani koko ruokavalionsa remonttiin ja aloitti säännöllisen kuntosaliharjoittelun. Hän käy kuntoilemassa kolme kertaa viikossa lasten ollessa koulussa. Jessica vakuuttaa, että kuka tahansa pystyy samaan halutessaan.

Ihmisen tulee vain tavoitella määrätietoisesti sitä mitä haluaa, mutta olla tarvittaessa joustava. Jessica oli laihduttanut raskausajan kilot jokaisen lapsen välissä, mikä osaltaan auttoi nykyisen tavoitteen saavuttamista, Daily Mail uutisoi.

Hän ei laske ruoka-annosten makroja, mutta suosii proteiinia, hedelmiä ja kokojyvätuotteita. Jessica on opetellut syömään tietoisuusharjoittelun avulla siten, että lopettaa aterioinnin tuntiessaan olevansa kylläinen. Hän ei myöskään herkuttele tai syö prosessoitua ruokaa, koska tuntee olonsa sen jälkeen pahoinvoivaksi. Hän uskoo, että jokainen pystyy saavuttamaan terveemmän olotilan – jopa suurperheen äiti.

The ship has sailed ⛵️ on a 2018 New Year’s post for me, 🤷🏻‍♀️ but I’ll spare you my year in review, as I’m sure we’ve all seen at least 200-300 years worth of people’s lives in the past few days! 😂 And so here we find ourselves on a #transformationtuesday & yes, I know I’m 9 months pregnant & in labor with @codyenslow on the left, but as I’ve said before, anyone who thinks pregnancy transformations don’t count probably has never given birth! Not only do you often gain some extra fat, but a woman’s uterus stretches to 500 times it’s normal size, and then returns to its normal size within about a month! Yes, our bodies are so resilient, especially when we take care of them. I’ve realized that if you find something you love, you’re more likely to stick with it! I now know I pretty much hate plyometrics & running, but I love #weighttraining & #cardio on the elliptical. I’m done following the trends & fads that come & go. Thanks to @shaneheugly I know that any form of cardio will work & luckily for me, weight lifting will help sculpt & shape your physique nicely. 👌🏼 Here’s to achieving our goals in 2018! Happy New Year friends! 🎉♥️ • • • • • • #fatloss #fitnessjourney #fitmums #fitmamas #fitmoms #transformations #weightlosstips #trainlikeagirl #loveyourselfmore #abworkout #armworkout #fitspo #utahfitfam #utah #utahfitness #howtoloseweight #antiaging #postpartum #countingmacros #momswholift #momlife #pregnantlife #beachbody #bikinibody #glowup #bodyafterbaby #girlsgonesporty

Good morning!! I’m still cuddled up in bed trying to convince myself to get up for the day 🙊 The kiddos wanted to stay at Grandma’s for a few more days, & I do love them to pieces, but I’ll never complain about a little peace & quiet. 😉 I also don’t really have an excuse to skip another #gymday so I def have that on my to-do list today! Who else plans to workout today?🏋🏼‍♀️ • • • • • #fashionable #christmastime #winterfashion #utahmom #fitmom #momanddaughter #beanie #beanieseason #thatsdarling #momlifestyle #momlifeisthebestlife #eternalmotherhood #abmlifeiscolorful #joyfulmamas #flashesofdelight #liveauthentic #mybeautifulmess #pursuepretty #petitejoys #darlingdaily #livethelittlethings #myunicornlife #theeverygirl #pursuewhatislovely #glitterguide #postitfortheaesthetic #theverydayproject #howyouglow

Working out hasn’t been a huge priority the past week-and-a-half for me. Family time, Christmas prep, & sleep have been 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦🛍😴 I’ve also had a mild cold that’s sucked some of my energy 🤧 I did get in 45 minutes of cardio last night & then I did about an hour the Monday before. That is it! No guilt. I’ve still been taking my #warriorfuelsupplements HERS preworkout every morning with breakfast to help with appetite control & fat loss 👍🏼{code: jessicafit Link is in bio} Pink Burst is zeee BEST flavor! 💗🤩😋 • • • • • #cardio #momswholift #momswhoworkout #utah #utahgram #utahblogger #preworkout #fitmoms #fitness #athleisure #lilybod #lilybodbabe #utahlife #weighttraining #bodybuildinglifestyle #athleticwear #supplements #happylifestyle #fitnessjourney #girlsgonesporty #beachbody #fitnessgirl #fitnesslifestyle #powerofshe #sweatpink #activeliving #myunicornlife #theverydayproject #pursuepretty

These #throwback #transformations are my absolute favorites! 👶🏼👉🏼👱🏼‍♀️You may not be able to tell exactly how my body has changed between these two pics with but you can still see how much things have changed in a lot of ways! {ahem… bangs 😂} If you want to see some of my ups & downs, particularly over the past two years, feel free to scroll on back ⏮ Also, I did do 45 minutes of cardio on the elliptical this morning, which included 20 minutes of #hiit 👊🏼 Happy #motivationmonday #mondaymotivation #transformationtuesday #transformation #nowandthen #beforeandafter #beforeandafterweightloss #weightlossgoals #fatlossjourney #weightlosstips #myfitnessjourney #fitnessmotivation #trainlikeagirl #fitover40 #fitnesstransformation #fitmoms #gymlife #postpartum #pregnancy #bodyafterbaby #utahfitfam #utahfitness #utahgram #utah #utahfitspo #utahfit #transformationmonday

I've gotten a lot of comments lately asking how do I handle having SEVEN KIDS??! 😳 Well, let me tell you, since school has started I feel like a chicken with my head cut off!!! 🐔😐 I didn't even make it to the gym ONCE this week yet 😬😩😭 But I honestly feel like my life is finally getting easier, in general, now than after having only ONE kid! Why? 1) My youngest is pretty much potty trained 2) I have older kids to help me 3) I have an amazing support system between my husband, his parents and my parents ☺️♥️ 4) I am more mature than my 20-year-old self and know what comes with the territory 😂💩🍕🍭🤸🏽‍♀️🏈🏀🚗🎡🎠🛁❤️….. But in terms of maintaining my physique while significantly reducing my workouts? I am a little softer, yes, but I am actually shocked at the difference between hardly working out the past 3 months versus a year ago when the same thing happened and I lost a ton of progress. I credit my change in eating habits to @shaneheugly my fitness coach & taking my @warriorfuel_supps HERS #preworkout {code: jessicafit} which has helped SO much with controlling my appetite and keeping my metabolism up! 🙏🏻 I know I've said this a million times, but truly, I can't credit a workout regimen at the moment, other than my recent training with Shane. I'm hoping I'll settle into a routine soon and be able to get into the gym more regularly. I want it more than you know, but family does come first & everyone's schedules are so staggered, it's been difficult to manage it at this point. HAPPY FRIDAY LOVES! Enjoy your weekend!! ♥️🌺🌿
