1. A Fitness Lover

“I don’t really follow any diet but I like to start my first meal with a protein shake with fruit and oatmeal, then I’ll eat a salad with protein for lunch and a good dinner with protein, carbs, and veggies,” she told us. “Then weekends are more relaxed, I don’t restrict myself from anything.”

3. Intermittent Fasting

Vanessa eats during an eight to 10 hour window. “I do intermittent fasting. I do between 14 to 16 hours of fasting,” she reveals. During her feast hours she tries to “eat as much as possible while following the Paleo diet for health purposes,” she says. “When I feel like I want something else, I eat, because when I restrict myself it makes me unhappy. I feel that happiness is the key to being healthy and having a good fitness achievable regimen.” She also shies away from two things. “I try to avoid anything with sugar unless it’s honey, maple or fruit sugar. I also try to stay away from gluten as much as I can and processed foods,” she says.

4. Meditation

Vanessa doesn’t overlook the importance of her mental health. “I do meditation,” she said, adding that it makes “my spirit happy!” she says.

5. Pilates and Boxing

Vanessa is a fan of a few different workouts. “I love the pilates reformer!” she says. “I also do workouts with Scott at Strong Confident Living online which are 20 minutes and in-person, which are 45 minutes dragon flags, just like ROCKY!” she says. She usually gets her sweat on early in the morning to “kick start” her day. “Right now I’m learning how to box with my fiancé, he’s so good at it and we have so much fun doing it together. We are also running 2-4 K every day now!” she said.
