Influencer Jessie Chanes Flaunts Fit Bod Saying "Take Care of Yourself"

Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits. 

Jessie Chanes is sharing an inspirational message with her followers – in her swimsuit. In a new social media post the influencer flaunts her fit figure in a swimsuit, revealing that even she struggles with body image issues. "The other day I was thinking with you out loud about the changes in our bodies, how they affect us and how we deal with them," she writes. "So this is just a small reminder that it is normal to change, to swell or gain weight. And it is also normal to fall into the temptation of comparing ourselves and longing for a body different from ours. BUT. We take care of ourselves all year long for ourselves, for our body, for health and because we love ourselves. We cannot control the natural changes in our body, but there is something that can: our mind," she adds. "Taking care of ourselves is important ALL YEAR ROUND. And it is curious, because the importance of maintaining my mental well-being was taught to me by anxiety. When you stop prioritizing your well-being, sooner rather than later, you lose yourself." How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

Reading

Jessie is a reader. During a trip to Portugal, she spent time relaxing and reading a book. One Harvard study published in Social Science & Medicine found that people who read books regularly had a 20% lower risk of dying over the next 12 years compared with people who weren't readers or who read periodicals.

Standup Paddle Boarding

While on vacation you can find Jessie standup paddleboarding. "Another day doing what we like the most, because the beach has no owner but I have the key," she wrote from Malaga, Spain. The American Council on Exercise (ACE) agrees that paddle boarding is great for the core and also a great form of cardio. The water sport can burn an average of 385 calories for a 140 pound male and 436 for a female the same size, per a study conducted by Arizona State University.

Cycling

Jessie enjoys cycling. She takes spin classes with her friends. The Cleveland Clinic explains that biking, a low-impact aerobic exercise, is great for building muscle, improving strength and flexibility, and improving balance. It can also boost mental health and help other health conditions, including arthritis.

  • Building stronger muscles and bones
  • Improving your sense of balance

Oatmeal with Chia Seeds and Flax

In one post she revealed the recipe for her "(almost) everyday" breakfast. "A healthy, tasty and nutrient-packed bowl. Chia seeds and ground flax are rich in omega-3, fiber and help reduce cholesterol levels. Oats are a source of essential amino acids, as well as vitamins A, B1, B2 and E. What I like most is that the options are endless, you can change and play with the seeds, fruit or toppings," she writes, offering some extra recommendations:

  • Use soft oat flakes, they are finer and creamier. Note that they are always indicated.
  • Calculate 40g of oat flakes per serving (approx. 2 tablespoons of oat flakes)
  • The oat milk should only contain water and oats. Nothing else!
  • Peanut butter (or any other nuts) without any other additives or sweeteners.
  • You can add the coconut to the saucepan if you want or for a touch of chocolate, you can add pure cocoa powder or cocoa nibs.
