Dancing Helped Get Her in the Best Shape of Her Life

Jessie may not have won Dancing with the Stars, but she scored her best body ever. "That was life-changing. To be honest, I'd never gotten in that kind of shape before, and I've always been kind of a workout nut. But I really enjoyed that fitness journey on that show," she told Fox News Digital.

She Battles Body Image Issues

In 2022 Jessie opened up about her body image struggles. "I've been battling some body image issues, and when I really think about it, I probably always have," she wrote in an emotional Instagram post. "I go from one extreme to being obsessed with working out and being muscular to thin and just giving up and gaining because the food makes me feel better." She described it as a vicious "cycle" that keeps getting "worse."

While Jessie doesn't call her eating method intermittent fasting, she doesn't eat her first meal until 11 in the morning. "I eat what I want to eat within that time frame but don't overdo it," she explained to Women's Health about her strategy, which mirrors 16:8 fasting. "The timing really is important to me."

She Cooks Her Own Meals

One way that Jessie ensures she and her family are eating healthy is by cooking. "We eat dinner every day between 5 and 5:30 p.m," she told Women's Health. "We get creative." Dinners, like pasta, chicken tacos, gumbo, or lasagna, are made from scratch. Jessie doesn't count calories. "When you're cooking at home and you know what you're putting in your food, I don't think you have to be that strict," she said. "I don't always think it needs to be grilled chicken over greens. A lot of times I make my homemade pasta so I know what's going in the pasta. It's not that challenging and it's worth it."

"There are some weeks when I'm following more of a strict diet because I have something coming up. But, you know, for the most part, I'm always enjoying food and I always say 'everything in moderation' on a day-to-day basis," she told Women's Health about her approach to balance.

She Works Out

Obviously, Jessie is devoted to exercise. Her form of choice? Strength training. "I work out 3 to 4 times a week and they pretty much look like this with certain variations whether we're doing more upper body or lower body," she revealed in an Instagram post. Her typical workout session starts with 30 seconds of jump rope, continuing on to high-knee running, ankle grabs, high kicks, lunges and lateral lunges, spinal rotations, and tension squats. Next up? Overhead squats with resistance bands, medicine ball slams and tosses, medicine ball chest passes, medicine ball sit-up tosses, resistance band pulls, deadlifts, step-down exercises, weighted overhead presses, inverted rows, bent over kettlebell rows, weight plate steering wheel exercises, dumbbell rotations, and box jumps.
