1-Mile Walk n' Talk: Gratitude + Goals - Walk at home + motivation

[@meganderson2003]

I'm a little late to the game, but I enjoyed this gentle walk after all my Thanksgiving guests left my house. I am thankful for good health and a strong body. I have a sister with MS, so I am reminded that being able to walk -- just walk -- is an incredible blessing. My goal is to be fit, healthy, and strong while living a BALANCED life -- hard for us working moms. For me, that means a healthy, active, low stress life with lots of fun and laughter with my family.

[@virginiaaknott]

I am grateful for my wonderful husband who has taken care of me over the last year while I battled breast cancer. I'm also grateful to be gaining back my strength and to be able to exercise like I used to. I met one of my big goals yesterday. I ride a stationary recumbent bike and for years I have been trying to complete 10 miles one of the 30 minute preprogrammed routines. I did that finally after 6 years of trying. Whoohoo! Now I'm moving on to a harder routine on my bike and the goal remains the same-10 miles in 30 minutes. I'm still in disbelieve that I couldn't do it before cancer but managed to meet that goal after. Pretty cool! Thanks for walking and talking with me, Jessica!

[@bellaangel7598]

Thank you so much Jessica! I will be turning 60 years old in November and i'm so grateful for my health such that i can walk one or two miles daily. Last week when i went to the eye doctor he asked if i worked out. I said yes (since i do cardio miles through KZbin:-). He said he could tell because the oxogen from regular cardio exercise clears all the "junk" in back of the retina and that the back of my retinas were completely clear. I am so grateful for your channel Jessica; these walk and talk videos fit in so beautifully with my fitness level. God Bless You:-))

[@JanessaElizabeth]

These are the perfect little walks for what are happening in my life right now! I have so many things to be thankful for, but the one thing I am most thankful for today, is the ability to continue my exercise regimen so far throughout my pregnancy. I am going on 16 weeks, and I've been blessed to have NOT had any morning sickness, or a lot of issues that have set me back....and THIS leads me to my goal, and that is to maintain as much strength and cardiovascular endurance as I can, to keep my pregnancy weight gain within acceptable limits, and allow me to bounce back quicker in the spring after the baby comes. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOURS on your journey to begin your own family.

[@Jessicasmithtv]

Thanks for walking with us today Janessa! And congrats to you on your healthy pregnancy! Thanks for sharing your gratitude and goals with us :)

[@googooberries]

Congrats!!

[@kathleenpace810]

I am so grateful that my husband is recovering from a very serious illness which means I can go back to my regular routine at the gym. My goal right now is to regain the strength I've lost caring for him these past 4 months. Thank you for these Walk & Talks - they are perfect for adding just a bit more movement to my day!

[@saras.8727]

I am grateful and proud EVERY DAY for the 150 pounds I have lost since I started this journey almost 3 years ago. A goal/project which I am currently working on is a home gym since my husband and I bought a condo this summer. This is something that I have dreamed of for quite a while. Before we bought this place, I would workout with Jessica in our tiny apartment, LOL! So I guess I could say that I am grateful and proud that I can do this too.

[@susanhoppe7297]

I am so grateful I was able to do this whole walk. I have cancer,, am in treatments, so fatigue is one of the side effects I am working on, and to heal my whole self with food and exercise and inner work. Thanks for this, the walk and talk about gratitude.

[@jackiemc6745]

Those are great goals SK Hoppe. Healing from the inside.

[@punkafoo]

Praying that you beat cancer. Well done for getting through the walk.

[@vintagegirl31]

Prayers with you! A positive attitude and gratitude can help so much, at least giving us inner peace of mind. Keep up the good work :)

[@susanhoppe7297]

peace to you too!

[@dorothyjohnson5614]

Wishing you peace & energy & renewed health!

[@nancyjones7078]

I am so glad these walk n talks are here. Whenever I’m out of sorts, they really help me regain focus and direction. I am grateful for the ladies who take care of my mom. I am working towards conquering my sugar addiction. I know it will make me feel better,but I’m having trouble getting past the immediate gratification.

[@nmyolivas]

Thank You For This! I am grateful for our health as a family and for always having Gods Presence with me and my family! I just was recently free from a stronghold of fear and depression for no reason! But with Gods Presence and His Word, I got through it! Glory Be To God! My goal is to be healthy Spiritually, Physically, And Mentally to be able to live my life as God wants me to live! ☺

[@dianeroot69]

I needed this today. I've worked out for two years with the wonderful Jessica Smith on KZbin and have most of her DVD's or streaming videos. I am extremely grateful that, at 65, I can do the vast majority of workouts, whether I follow Jessica, Debbie, or Raquel. My goal is to be as healthy as I can, mentally and physically, for the age I am. My family is going through a very hard time right now, and I ask for positive energy and prayers if you're so inclined. And I am going to add another goal: to continue to focus on fitness, even when my world is chaotic. Thank you all.

[@Jessicasmithtv]

Sending our thoughts and well wishes to you and your family Diane! Thank you for moving with us

[@KCorrine]

I am grateful for this day. I accomplished a lot at work, socialized with a coworker at lunch, had a good laugh with my boss, saw the sun shine on the way home from work, got in a great 30 min. Strength session with you followed by this walk, I hugged my dogs and ate dinner with my husband! Nothing out of the ordinary but together they made the day extraordinary! One thing I wanted to add about gratefulness. It goes hand in hand with perspective. Anyone can change a situation by changing their perspective I believe. As for my goal, I have many but right now one of my goals is to give myself five minutes during the day to meditate or stretch, or listen to relaxing music or journal, just something for me!

[@marisaspano548]

I've been doing these every day after work and I love them! Please keep making walk and talks!

[@dorothyjohnson5614]

Thank you (again), Jessica! It's good to be reminded of the importance of conscious gratitude. My husband retired in March & today we found out that his former employer WILL continue to subsidize our health insurance premiums--I am most certainly grateful for that! Also in March, I had minor surgery to remove a cancerous spot on my leg. The wound became infected & I was sidelined from my workouts for 3 months. I'm still not all the way back to the strength & fitness levels I had before the procedure. So my #1 goal is to keep plugging away at getting back to where I was (turned 60 in August--recovery doesn't happen as quickly or easily as it used to!). Your workouts (YT & dvds) are a big part of my fitness regimen, Jessica. I know I'll get back to where I want to be.

[@heatherdixon7715]

I am very grateful that these walking videos are on here! But seriously, I am very grateful beyond words, that I live in a great country where my beliefs and faith are not persecuted. And I woke up today and saw the sunrise. My immediate goal is to get my dog for a quick walk , and then head out the door to work, smiling and feeling great! Thanks again, Jessica!

[@allysonroberts3905]

Thank you for revisiting this! Now that we are several months into this pandemic and I, like many others, are feeling a sense of frustration and longing for normalcy and need reminders to remain grateful. I am so thankful for my health. My goal is to stay healthy and and be able enjoy my two grandchildren that are to be born within the next 6 months!!

[@248brunswick]

Jessica, Today I am grateful for you and the great job you do in making all these (free) videos so there can be no excuse for not exercising. I am grateful I found your website and your wonderful motivation to move each day no matter what. The best thing I learned (and practice everyday) from you is 'something is better than nothing'. My goal is to keeping working out with you to keep up my good health and stamina at age 72.

[@hmmiller007]

I am most grateful for my family. We had a lot of loved ones pass away last year, and this time of year can be difficult for me, so I'm very glad to spend time with them all. My goal, which is hard for me to measure and work towards, is learning to accept myself as I am. I'm trying to have a better, healthier, self-image, living a balanced lifestyle (instead of restricted myself and beating myself up over every little thing I do "wrong"). It's a work in progress!

[@keledejo]

I just discovered your 1-mile Walk n' Talks and I want MORE! This is a great thing to do at work on a cold day when going outside is not an option.

[@lilivanv1794]

Thank you for a perfect walk to break up my morning work schedule! I work at home and these breaks from the computer are so welcome and invigorating. I am very thankful for my wonderful supportive husband and my goal is to achieve a balanced and effortless healthy lifestyle. I have been on this journey before many times but always end up back where I started. I am hoping for a definitive change this time by taking small but firm steps. Thank you, Jessica, for your great work and inspiration!

[@joanfude]

Thanks for another mile walk Jessica. Today I am grateful for having one special friend who understands me completely. My goal is to remain as strong and healthy as I am now for many more years to come.

[@Jessicasmithtv]

Thanks for walking with us Joan! Love your gratitude and goals - thanks for sharing :)

[@jenniferwells4608]

I am thankful for many things, but one of them is you, Jessica!! I have used your workout videos often over the past couple of years and find motivation and encouragement to keep going. The habit of working out is not one I find easy to establish. My goal is to develop the habit of at least 30 minutes of activity each day. Thank you, for being there for me to come back to when I get off course.

[@jamiaharris9936]

Thank you so much for this gratitude session. I'm thankful for being blessed to see a brand new day. Since, this is Breast Cancer Awareness month. I'm thankful to be two years Breast Cancer free. Thankful to be in my right mind, and able to be a part of this walking exercise today. My body is in pain today, I'm grateful that I was able to finish this walking routine. Thank you Jessica and Peanut!!!

[@sherryg1838]

Wonderful topic, very relatable for me as it's something I struggle with, finding that balance between goals and gratitude. Exercise has helped me with gratitude, as it's relieved stress and given me a more peaceful frame of mind. Trying to find joy in the little moments, while making plans for the future, is what I'd like to do. Good luck with your family goals! I had a med-free, natural birth at age 41, and I credit a lot of that to exercise and healthy eating.

[@janelleflake9362]

These walk and talks are great! I struggle with mild depression and have found that a little dose of cardio every day can really help but pregnancy has made that really hard to get. These walk and talks get my heart rate up a little higher than a regular walk and the positive attitude and quotes help boost a little beyond what the exercise does. I know they aren't meant to be a workout, but for me right now they are what I can do and they make a difference! Thank you!

[@rachelpowell1570]

I am most grateful for the ability to participate in these walks! A couple years ago, I was so heavy and had such poor cardiovascular health that even these short walk & talks would have been a heck of a challenge. One goal I have is to participate in a 5K within the next year. Difficult on multiple levels, but I know I can do it! Even if I walk the whole way, it will still be a major accomplishment! Thank you for these walk & talk sessions! They are an awesome, positive way to begin every day!

[@triciapatterson2487]

I'm grateful for Jessica and these walk and talk routines. I'm just getting back to exercising as I am in treatment for Lyme disease. They're the perfect level and length of time for me. One goal for me is to work up to a total of 180 minutes of exercise weekly, in the next four weeks. This week is 90, then 120 next week, 150 the following, then 180. With Jessica's KZbin series, I can accomplish this.

[@smartstrongsexy]

I'm grateful for a fresh start to the year and fitness.

[@meilinamoore6391]

I know it's been a while since this video was released, but I walked with you today and wanted to complete your comment challenge. Today I am grateful that I woke up naturally to the sunlight before my alarm. I love when that happens, and it's one of the best things about summer!! My vision for myself is to learn to love myself- flaws, strengths, and all- and realize that I can be lovable without being perfect. Thanks for your excellent videos, Jessica!

[@Martyon1]

I am currently under "walk only" exercise orders after having breast cancer surgery. This seemed like a great way to think about the incredibly deep feelings of gratitude I have while going through this. My family and friends have been so amazing. This is going to be a long haul, so my goal is going to be to continue to "work out" in whatever best way I can over the next few months while in treatment. To push myself to exercise to the level I can and maintain as much of my strength and energy as possible. I've come a long way from the smoking, 60 lb heavier, never ever exercised lady I was 4 years ago. Not gonna let this get me down! KZbin is the perfect companion for choices of all levels of workout. Thank you, Jessica, for being a steady companion to me for the past couple of years!

[@brandihogan3662]

I love these! They are perfect for those days when I don't feel like getting up and working out! Today I am grateful that I am healthy enough to move even though there are days I don't feel like it. One of my goals is to eat better to help me with my vision of living a healthy, balanced life. Thank you for these!

[@elizabethcencetti8825]

Thanks for this, Jessica. I've just done this walk plus the one on happiness and busyness. Today I'm grateful for my overall health, since I can walk fast, and even run, I'm not ill (here's kudos to Susan Hoppe for looking after herself so well despite her cancer) and when I'm active I feel relatively fit. I'm also very grateful to you for all you do on KZbin! In fact I have a huge number of things to be grateful for! My immediate goal is to lose the horrible flab that has crept up on me in the last 6 months or so (since I turned 61 in fact) because of my very sedentary job. To do that I'm upping the number of your videos each week, and every couple of hours, I'm walking up 5 flights of stairs, to get some activity in and break up the hours in front of the computer. Plus walking and gardening in the great outdoors, which I love.

[@colleensouthwell7549]

I am grateful I found this channel. I'm in my 50's now and my goal is to be able to walk well into my 80's and 90's. I live in Michigan so it's either cold or raining a lot of the time and these walks are perfect. And if I lose some weight that's cool, too. Thanks for being a voice of fitness reality.

[@lettmom4]

I'm grateful for Jessica Smith workouts. Jessica, you are a bright cheery spot in my day. I'm an American living in Thailand and often can't go walk in my area because of countless street dogs. So I love tuning in and walking with you and getting strong while having some fun. I've tried lots of videos but you are one of the best! Fun but not cheesy. Hard but not leaving me dead on the floor after exercise. Thank you for sharing all of this with us. My goal is to lose 10 lbs! Here goes!

[@xxpowerxxx7569]

I want to thank you. I suffer with PTSD and major depression. Some days I can't fiend the strength to do anything. Your workouts have been a blessing to me because I can actually do them that's what I'm thankful for. I'm working on getting healthier and losing 5 more pounds.

[@melissasetser1520]

I just found these walk and talks and have really enjoyed them so far! I'm currently getting back into working out after being pregnant and having my daughter. It's taken me a few months to get back in the swing of things...had to find my motivation. So, what I'm grateful for is my daughter and the fact that I had a wonderful pregnancy. My goals are to get back to my pre-preggers weight and to develop a healthy routine and body image so that I can pass that along to my beautiful daughter. Thanks again, Jessica for all of your wonderful workouts!

[@Musicgirl-vw3gs]

I'm grateful for this walk today - working on goal-setting for my new year's resolutions, and I have a bad chest cold, so hardcore cardio is out today. This helped me get a little movement in. As far as my goal, I really want to adopt better permanent healthy lifestyle habits to both set an example for kids, and to enjoy my time together with my family to its fullest. I'm not in awful shape now - and grateful for that - but there's plenty of room for improvement!

[@rhondar610]

I'm grateful for my family & friends and my health which allows me to do your awesome workouts and the energy to keep up with my 2 year-old granddaughter! My goal is to stay active & healthy for many, many years to come!!

[@shereepeterson148]

Thank you for these gentle walks and inspiration. Grateful for good health and my goal is to get back to exercising more regularly after my thyroid cancer surgery. These walk n' talks are just perfect for my low energy. They have pushed me to start to do more. LOVE all your videos!

[@futzicat]

I'm grateful for having friends and family that love and support me no matter what. My goal right now is to get healthy and fit enough to go outside and run again.

[@rashiadahweaver3103]

I am grateful that 6 yrs later I am using this coming out of a bout of dibiltatTing depression and that this platform allows for us to find these little treasures this was helpful!!! And may it be so years to come. Thank you

[@re9107]

I'm so thankful that I woke up and was able to put my family out the door to start their day well nourished. This was a wonderful idea of walking while talking about important subjects!

[@Lilmissy196]

I am extremely grateful for these walk and talk videos! Thank you!!

[@lynnwoods211]

I realize this video was posted a year ago, but I am grateful that these videos are here. Because of severe plantar fasciitis in both feet and Achilles tendinitis in one leg, I haven’t been able to walk much in the last six months. With the help of physical therapy I am now able to walk about 15 to 20 minutes at a moderate pace. The 1-mile walk n’ talk videos are perfect for not only the exercise portion, but the motivation from the talk. Thank you for your videos that provide variety and motivation no matter what level I am at.

[@Kenzieballinger]

I am grateful for the progress I have made so far! I have recently got in the habit of exercising daily. I haven't seen much of a change on the scale or in the mirror, but I have begun to look forward to exercising and enjoy it! My goal is more about how I feel than about a number. I do have a goal weight, but more importantly I want to feel better physically and improve my self-esteem . I want to be an inspiration to others that struggle with their weight and an example for my children!

[@hollyc6943]

I'm most grateful today for my parents, who support me in everything I do and go through. One of my goals is to be more active and do my 10000 steps a day and these videos help so much, so I'm also grateful for you Jessica.

[@nelecreemers6743]

I am grateful today that my husband, my kids and I are healthy. my goal is to keep on the path of the healthy lifestyle that I started last year with exercise and a healthy diet and to be a good example for my kids. thank you Jessica for the Fantastic workouts!

[@maggieb369]

I am grateful that my chronic pain and tiredness has abated enough that I can finally start working out again, and grateful to discover your channel, your marvelous workouts, and seeing Peanut! She is so precious!

[@prishabailey2940]

It's been a rough couple of weeks so making myself take the time to think about all I have is something I needed right now. I am grateful for my "never a dull moment" life. I may always be going on fast forward but I will take now while I can because with the pace my kids are going up, it will soon be gone. I am also grateful my husband made it safely through the picket lines at work and I hope things are soon settled so I do not need to worry again! My goal is to keep myself sane. This is Mom's me time and I need it! Thank you for this workout and all you do Jessica!

[@amandaczerwieniec3269]

I am grateful for my health, love and family! My goal is remain healthy and live a balanced and happy life. I am not chasing a number or size, rather I want to be healthy and strong. I want to take care of myself in all ways -- physically, emotionally and spiritually and this includes a brownie sundae every once in awhile. I am in the process of learning what happiness and health means to me. I am seeking balance and freedom from guilt. This is my life, my body and I am striving to care for it.

[@rosreil]

I'm a late comer to your channel, but I find you so refreshing, supportive, and warm. I'm thankful that you bring personality, cheer, and humanity to exercise. It is a pleasure being led by you (and Peanut!). My goal after listening to your Walk and Talk on Gratitude and Goals is to be both more thankful and more intentional in my daily life. I am going to add gratitude to my daily bullet journal. I believe that will help lift my thoughts about the mundane to-do's and give me needed perspective on the daily tasks. Walking tall with you, Jessica, will help me pull my nose up from the grindstone to look at the horizon and the sky! So...thanks!

[@Jessicasmithtv]

Welcome to our channel rosreil - so glad you found us! Thank you for sharing your gratitude and goals, what a great list! Thanks so much for walking and talking with us today- hope to join you for another session soon :)

[@michellebower7191]

I love these Walk n' Talk videos! I am most grateful for my 11 year old daughter. She was a surprise & came to us later in life, but I cannot imagine life without her. She keeps me young. My hubby, daughter & I started working out together 5 days a week & have lost a family total of over 80 lb.'s. Our goal is to lose weight, feel healthy & energetic, but most of all to show our daughter a healthier lifestyle which neither my hubby or I had growing up. We want to be around for as long as possible for her & for us.

[@Jessicasmithtv]

Hi Michelle! Thank you so much for walking and talking with us today. How wonderful that you all exercise as a family - what an awesome activity for you all to participate in together - love that! Please keep up the great work you are doing taking care of your body, your health and your family :-)

[@cindiebergman1395]

I am very grateful that I found Jessicasmithtv! I just retired and am able to stay home and work out every morning to these very educational and first class work outs! I wear my Apple Watch and track my fitness goals which is to stay active and continue to add new challenges, increase weights and lose about 5 pounds. If I don't lose it.. focus and just keep moving! Most grateful to you! I enjoy Peanut.. I have TWO Frenchies just like her... still sleeping in!

[@peterbodnarchuk1]

I am grateful for the wonderful walk with my little boy today. He is so full of life and seeing the beauty in each moment. A goal I am working towards is deadlifting 400lbs. I am at 370lbs currently so I am getting close! Jessica I love your videos and for this one I wore a weighted vest, leg and wrists weights...this makes a nice peaceful workout while still activating my body...blessing everyone!!!

[@jacquelinelightcap6488]

I really like this series, Jessica! I used this one as a nice cool down after a more challenging workout. Perfect. One thing I'm grateful for today is how I have been able to stay with this whole exercise "thing" for the past 7 years! I was pretty inactive my whole life but added fitness in 2009 and have kept it up. I know it's made a huge difference in my well being and for that I am grateful. One of my goals is to create a more healthy relationship with food so that I don't stress about what I eat so much! I'm taking positive steps in that direction, but it is an ongoing process.

[@Its_me--Boo_Radley]

I just finished your newest Walk and Talk video. It was fabulous! Thank you so much Jessica another wonderful and inspiring video. What am I most grateful for? I have so many wonderful things in my life--but the best by far is my husband, Mark. He went through cancer treatments several years ago for a very agressive disease. Despite setbacks and complications that went on for several years, he always maintained a positive attitude. Today, although he has several limitations, nothing stops him from doing the activities he enjoys. So not only am I grateful for him, but I am also grateful that my body is still able to move to your videos--something that I know others may not be able to do.

[@bettinawomack8280]

One thing I am grateful for today is my awesome hubby. He is an excellent provider who works hard so that I can be home with our daughter. One of my goals is to become a yogi/yogini and then share my love of yoga with others. LOVE your videos, love the Peanut cam, love the quotes!!!! Thank you so much.

[@jeepersandrandy]

I am doing these Walk + Talks after throwing my back out. I also paired this with "1 Mile Walk + Talk: What Does a Healthy Lifestyle Look Like"! I am grateful that I can finally start moving again and I am grateful for my three children and my two grandchildren. My goals are to keep healthy and fit for as long as I can (at my age) so that I can keep up with these youngsters so that I can have as much fun with them as long as I am allowed to in this life!

[@terrir.7604]

I'm so grateful for my wonderful family and the fact that I've healed so well from Celiac disease in the past 4 years. Of course, I couldn't go without saying how grateful I am for your wonderful dvds. It's nice to have the energy to do them. My goal is to move more and eat less sugar...I'm a sugar addict and getting off has been very hard for me....I don't want to be 100% sugar free...I just need to quit eating so much. I'm fixing to be 50 and this has to stop. Good luck to you Jessica on your goal...love it!

[@hmarie9884]

I was feeling lonely and losing my motivation to work on my goal for the day of cleaning the dishes in my sink. This walk was uplifting and helped me to not feel so lonely. I'm thankful that although I would like to move on from my job, it enables me to pay my bills and live alone in this time where I really need to work on myself. I often feel have a habit of eating and/or sleeping when I feel anxious. I would like to start walking for at least 15 minutes in place of this for now on. Thanks Jessica!!!

[@kelliem9093]

Today I am grateful for the sun shining and my family. My youngest has been dealing with bronchitis all week, so it has been a long week. One of my goals is to be strong and healthy. I do my workouts to help me feel better and just be active. Loved this simple walk!

[@wjpberry]

One thing I'm grateful for is my health. One of my goals is to be healthy and living the life God has for me. I really enjoy your video's and was so pumped when I came on yesterday and saw you had a new walk and talk video. It's great to get to know you while working out. You are so positive. I think you will make an awesome mum when the time comes. xx

[@alyismyname999]

I am grateful for KZbin because without KZbin, I wouldn't be able to do the workouts that you make. I love these workouts! One of my goals is just to get my body moving more during the week whether that is with walking, running, HIT workouts, etc.

[@BernasBookishAdventures]

I have been doing your workouts for a year (exact anniversary was yesterday) and I have toned my body incredibly. It is not perfect but I am very satisfied with my body now. My new goal is to keep this body and stay healthy both physically and mentally. Thanks for all your help.

[@janlowmeg5682]

GM today I am ever so grateful to wake up to a beautiful sunday morning and can join u to exercise before I attend church after 5months in covid lockdown. Thank u lord for keeping me #i am alive&well. thank u Jessica for motivating me. Keep it up.

[@raendropsrm]

I LOVE these Walk n Talk videos; this one is my favourite, and I have done it several times. It's great for a day where I am not feeling up to a heavy workout, but want to get some steps in and can't get outside. Plus it speaks to me every time. Topic Idea: Listening to your body. I am working on listening to my body each day in terms of what exercise/movement to do, but at 100 lbs overweight and just getting started (again), it's often difficult to tell whether I am just being lazy/procrastinating/finding excuses, or whether I really do just need to take a restorative day. I'm also trying to tune in to what kinds of foods my body wants to eat, and it's tough to really listen and not just follow (old/bad) habits. Thanks for everything you do!!

[@annheiner8775]

I'm feeling grateful today that I got to talk with all of my children and my parents over the weekend, whether in person or on the phone. And my goal right now is to get my joints in my shoulders and lower back more functional working with a physical therapist. Jessica, I work out often to your videos so thank you for making them!

[@babybookies5161]

I'm grateful for the Forks Over Knives Family book. We have a 2 yr old that is highly allergic to dairy and eggs. I was getting tears in my eyes while reading this book, because it discusses dealing with things that we struggle with in our everyday life. Plus, having an arsenal of recipes that are safe for everyone in my family.

[@michellefinkbiner]

I am thankful for your Walk n' Talk series ... and that you have a nice sunny day for us to look at outside your window because it's been raining here for the past several days, so it's wonderful to see some sunshine! Beautiful nature scenery is definitely motivating for me! =) One of my goals is to complete the whole Walk n' Talk series because I am so enjoying making this a regular part of my day ! =)

[@JMNeaves]

My goal is to move a little each day and to give myself grace in that. If, for example, I'm slammed and can only do a 20 minute video vs. an hour long class, it's still better than nothing and I should be proud that I still put some work in!

[@nubiamejia4835]

I am so grateful to have my body. Although I’m not in the best shape (yet!) I can still completely this walk. I have air in my lungs and I’m about to snuggle my kidlet. I find that all incredibly wonderful!! My main goal is to feel better in my body. I want to feel healthier and more active. I want to chase my toddler around without getting winded. I want to teach her how to love her body as she gets older. Thank you for doing these videos and giving me a place to feel good!!

I am grateful that I did this walk n talk, I know Jessica doesn’t count it as a workout yet I have been suffering from a major migraine for the past week and this was the first movement I have felt like doing.... so I am counting it as my workout. My goal this week is to make it to work the next four days......

[@GraceJification]

I am grateful for my health, for everyone and everything in my life, for the wonderful sunny days that we have been having; and thank you so much for your videos!

[@lizamacdonald1235]

Liza macdonald speaking I am grateful meeting jessicasmith worksouts and my goal is to get to 65 kg

These workouts are amazing! I am grateful that you give us these for free. It has really motivated me today, I am coming down off a binge and struggling with feelings of shame and guilt - but I did this workout and another of your walk and talk workouts and feel better about the situation. You have really put perspective on my situation - thank you!! Please do more of these walk and talk workouts - pretty please!!

[@krystaldoolittle8602]

I am grateful for free workout videos because I restarted my fitness journey not too long ago and it helps keep things fresh! Right now my goal is to finally say goodbye to the 200's! I have been close before but never quite made it.

[@kelilucas1693]

I really enjoy these Walk and Talk series. Great topics! It's so nice walking with you and learning during each session, and love the motivation and uplifting quotes. I'm most grateful that I'm healthy and I am able to be active. My main goal is to remain healthy, active, and work toward a strong, toned body. Thank you for all you do!

[@mrsalthea4981]

I am so glad I found this channel. I did Look Better Naked years ago and loved it. 2016 has kicked my butt. I have gone through some health issues, marriage issues, and worst of all; I lost my mom in July. I feel like I owe it to her to keep myself healthy. I lost 15 pounds before she passed and now I've gained it all back. So I suppose one of my goals is to re-lose those darn 15 pounds. One thing I am truly grateful for EVERY day is my ability to walk. I saw my mom be bedridden for almost 2 years and the fact that your health is not guaranteed is not lost on me. Thank you Jessica!!!

[@yoliebieber5492]

I am grateful for you Jessica! to be able to have all these workouts to do! I thank you very much for all of them!!!! keep them coming!

[@AlissaSchmitz-xs5po]

This was my walk for this morning I really enjoy your walk n talks I always have fun I learn something new and I get to move my body all at the same time something that I am grateful for is waking up and working out with you. One of my goals is to workout 5 days a week I am having a hard time staying consistent that’s why I like these walks you usually get motivated for the day thanks for walking with me this morning Jessica have a great day 😀

[@castoj70]

I am grateful for my family everyday. Even though all but one have spread their wings and left, we all manage to keep in touch on a regular basis. One of my goals is being able to be there for them if they should need it.

[@Sarah-zh2dd]

Thanks Jessica for this series of creative inspirational videos you are putting out. I am grateful for God and the hope and faith He's given me to live forgiven, free and with purpose for Him. I can struggle with a lot of attacks on my mind and I am always so thankful when I can get back to a place of surrender, healing and peace. I'm grateful for music, season changes (esp. the fall one coming up after a south Louisiana summer), thankful for funny and sweet friends & family, that all I have to do is think of them and they bring a smile to my face and joy to my heart. Over the past few years there have been times that I really have just so appreciated and enjoyed coming home after a super long day and having one of your workouts to do and how you have lifted me up just by being you. One of my goals is to save up enough to one day get a charming fixer upper home and make it my own little oasis to come home to each day. : )

[@kellibeachum2718]

I really do enjoy these videos. It is a great way to get up and get motivated for the day. Regardless if it is an off day or not it is nice to have that encouragement first thing. I have struggled with weight my whole life and now that I have two little ones at home, finding that "me" time is even harder. I love that I can jump out of bed and get a quick mile in before anyone else starts their day. It is also great to sneak one in at nap time as well. Thank you so much for all of the options on your channel

[@lorimiller3852]

I am really appreciative of you today. I am feeling really down with my body. I have an auto immune disease called Hashimoto and it effects my energy, weight etc... I have always been able to diet and exercise and lose weight but this isn't the case at the moment. I need to work on shifting to thin equals beauty and instead be healthy and fit. My goal is to move 5 days a week for 30 minutes. Thank you and peanut always makes it easier to be motivated to move, he brings a smile to my face.

[@lisah8792]

I am grateful finding these Walk and Talk videos. I am a HUGE fan of this series... please keep them going!

[@jenniferflemmer6900]

Love this! This was a great cool down :). One thing I am grateful for is, my husband's health. We have been going through a pretty major health situation with him and still have a ways to go in his treatment and recovery. But I am so grateful to have him with us. One of my goals is to gain strength in my upper back. I have been dealing with a fair amount of neck pain and have ended up in physical therapy because of it. I am determined to get my strength back.

[@nicolemcmillin6620]

Just completed this one while watching football! I'm am so grateful each day that I can get up and move, and that this channel and Jessica encourage daily movement for health wellness and attitude. I do gratitude checks each day for myself and this is a routine for our family at our evening meal. My goals right now are twofold, 1. I am lifting weights daily in order to tone, define, and sculpt muscles in order to use up some of the extra skin I have from a 140 lb weight loss. 2. I am moving and walking strong each day to maintain my weight loss and stay healthy and active. I share all of Jessica's information, videos, and motivation with my secret Facebook health and wellness fitness team! Jessica, you are the best!😍😍

[@Jessicasmithtv]

Love it! Thanks for sharing Nicole :)

[@tinalewis5779]

I’m grateful to be able to exercise and look forward to tomorrow’s workout!

[@dianefrandle4996]

Thank you Jessica and Peanut for reminding us to be thankful and count our blessings! I am grateful for reuniting with an old friend and renewing our relationship.Diane

[@punkafoo]

Love these walk and talk vids. Today I am grateful just to be alive and have two wonderful children and the most loving partner ever. My main goal is to be healthy for my children and to be a role model for them.

[@michellec9453]

I am grateful that I was able to do this video today. As I struggle with a health issue, there are days when HIIT and strength training and even steady state cardio are not possible. These little walks, though, are something I can do. They got me up and moving today, and I feel so much better for having done three of them :) My goal is to do some kind of workout every single day and not let my cancer stop me. I am stronger than it is; and I refuse to let it interfere with what I want to do. Oh, and I am also grateful for Peanut. How can watching her and her funny antics not put a smile on your face. Thank you, Jessica, for including her.

[@arstreet8]

Jessica I just found your videos and I'm so happy I did! I've been dealing with an autoimmune disorder and haven't been able to be physically active for months. I'm Finally feeling better and I'm grateful for being able to actually move without being in pain! My goal is to get myself into a routine that makes me happy and healthy. Positive thoughts can overpower any negative feelings I have. I'm hoping that I will continue to be on the mend and continue this positive change for my body and mind!

[@michellerogers4646]

I'm grateful I came across this walk tonight: it was exactly what I needed! I'm grateful for your generosity, Jessica, in recording all these workouts for us. I love your DVDs and have recommended them to so many people. My goal is to incorporate exercise into my daily life to combat a sedentary job and to have fun whilst I'm doing it!

[@karenkrist2774]

I just found your videos on KZbin. Thank you so much for posting free full length workouts. I have a goal of losing 103 lbs. I've been eating lchf for about a month now and have lost 5 lbs. I'm going to start working out on a regular basis to add to and speed up my weight loss journey. One thing that I am grateful for today is finding your videos on KZbin and my goal is to lose 103 lbs. Thank you so much for your dedication and support of others!

[@2musi8que28]

I am grateful that I am surrounded by smart, energetic people in my professional and personal life. My friends and family and colleagues keep me youthful and excited and willing to try new things! I suppose my goal is to shut out the negative thoughts I have about myself, especially when it comes to fitness. I am quick to judge myself harshly, and I am simply trying to stay active. A little more personal positive reinforcement will probably make me more productive!

[@vintagegirl31]

I love this series! And I appreciated this session. It made me slow down and think of what I should be grateful for each day. I am grateful for my daughter and that for 15 she's still affectionate and kind. I am grateful for being able to get up and move after having been down for so long. And I was really grateful for a warm bed on a nice cool morning hahaha and that first coffee. My short term goal is to try to get down at least one dress size during this month, maybe down at least 20 by March when Phantom Of The Opera Tour is in our area; and to work back up to the distance I use to walk. Long term and more permanently I just want to be a healthy person, be a good example for my daughter and have more energy.

[@lorraineburkholder7684]

After 4 1/2 years of TTCing and a miscarriage, I'm 30 weeks pregnant with a much prayed for child. Even though it's been a rough road, so grateful that baby seems to be doing really well! Relationship with my husband has strengthened exponentially while going through this together. My current fitness goal is to remain active,strong, and as healthy as possible for a great delivery and a healthy baby. Mentally, emotionally, and spiritually, to not allow paranoia and fear of the unknown to take hold.And a big goal for after baby arrives is cloth diapering, which is very exciting but also a little daunting. Thanks so much for the walk and the inspiring topics. Blessings to you as you start your family!

[@charlottezuber6347]

Jessica, coming back to your videos after a long hiatus! Thank you for these 1 mile walk and talks. I'm thankful for my strength to give birth 9 weeks ago and to be feeling energized enough to try these videos again today. One of my goals is to begin to incorporate a fitness routine daily once again now that I'm feeling well and baby is here. Thank you again ❤

[@lindaolbort3405]

This is just what I needed! Winter came in the form of a snow storm today and I have been having screaming pain in my joints. I normally would have gone to the gym for a step and cardio & sculpt session, but I doubt I would have been able to work them. I can barely lift my arm up never mind lifting a weight. Still being able to walk I am grateful for. With having RA since age 6 and five artificial joints, coming close to being in a wheelchair means any kind of movement I can still do is golden. Love your workouts, thank you Jessica!

[@suzannephillips8499]

I love this video as Peanut is the perfect example, lol! Seriously, this is very helpful reminder for me...I had a stroke 3 months ago. To be grateful to be alive and able to do this, walk :) is awesome! Thank you higher power (God)

[@melindayeoh]

Hi Jessica, I just got back from a holiday and wanted to resume my workout, but totally lazy to get started! :/ (I've been following your Barre exercises and I love them). So, here's the one thing that I'm grateful for today: Your 1-mile wall & talk video, with the topic on 'gratitude'. And one of my goals: To have one new post daily on the 'Three things that I'm most grateful for today'. With that goal, I hope it will be a domino goal of helping me to-1. Reflect daily on God's goodness. 2. Build my blogging habit. 3. Build a habit of counting my blessings. 4. Be thankful, less complains. I appreciate what you are doing. Thank you.

[@jenm473]

So happy for another wone of these!!!! Thankyou so much!!

[@magical_madge]

I'm grateful today because I finished the Walk Strong 6 Week program, which I didn't think I'd ever be able to do! My goal is to drop 5 pounds and make it through another exercise program. :) Thank you so much Jessica! I would never have been able to do it without all of your programs and workouts!

[@Jessicasmithtv]

Congrats on completing the program Megan! Way to go! Thanks for joining us and for sharing your gratitude and goals :) Keep up the great work!
