Jessie Wynter is heating up Coachella – in her boho, belly-baring look. In a new social media post the Love Island bombshell flaunts her amazing figure in tiny shorts and a lace-up top, hitting the music festival with her friends. “Coachella day 2,” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps. How does the reality star approach diet and fitness? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.
Jessie admits that she used to obsess over diet and exercise. “I’ve gone from religiously working out and being obsessed with what I eat to ACTUALLY living a life. I’ve been having so much fun eating out with friends, going to events, not revolving my days around a ‘healthy lifestyle,'” she explained to fans after comments about her weight gain. “I’m happier, healthier and having more fun than ever. My body definitely looks different but that’s okay!”
Jessie admits that her relationship with food hasn’t always been good. “Make your insecurity your strength 💪🏼✨ I have spent so long harming and fighting against my body so I could look a certain way. I’ve tried every fad diet you could think of, spent hours on google trying to find the magic answer, I would do cardio for hours and hours each day- I even quit the job I loved so I could workout more 😣 All of this because I thought there was a problem with the way I looked.. The problem has never been my appearance, it’s been my mind,” she wrote in a 2020 Instagram post. “I have been trying to heal my relationship with food and my body image for a long time now and feel as though I’m starting to make progress. I still have a long way to go. I’m not necessarily happy with where I am, but I’m happy with how I’m learning to cope with when I feel uncomfortable. I’m working hard to make sure every time I pick out a flaw within myself I back it up with a compliment. I’ll look in the mirror and look at the size of my legs- my old reaction would be a breakdown.. Now I appreciate how strong they’ve become.”
Jessie spends a lot of time outdoors and loves to swim. “Wholesome mornings with a spontaneous dip in the ocean,” she captioned a post. Swimming is a good way to get regular aerobic physical activity, according to the CDC. Just two and a half hours per week of aerobic physical activity, such as swimming, bicycling, or running, can decrease the risk of chronic illnesses. In addition to the many physical benefits, there are multiple studies supporting the mental health benefits of swimming as well.
Jessie also tries to get her steps in. A study published in JAMA Internal Medicine found that walking at a brisk pace for about 30 minutes a day led to a reduced risk of heart disease, cancer, dementia and death, compared with walking a similar number of steps but at a slower pace.
