Q&A- Workout Routine, Having Visible Abs, Portion Control and More!

In this solo podcast I do a Q&A answering... What is my workout routine? Do I follow a program? How did I get visible abs? Do I have any workout suggestions for a flat stomach? How do I eat “insert food name here” and still stay thin? How do I maintain control over my portion sizes? Do I do HIIT or cardio? How long did it take me to lose the weight? - Instagram- @fitnessnfoodwjess Website- www.fitnessnfoodwjess.com
