#do you feel better when you're getting certain nutrients and exercising? do that!

[menlove]

the other thing too is that losing weight is NOT a neutral action in the same way that being fat is.

what do I mean by that?

well, it is morally neutral in that no one should be judging you for wanting to lose weight & wanting to lose weight does not make you a bad person

however. it's not a neutral action. in the same way that feminists critique the beauty industry and makeup and constantly get replies like "but I LIKE wearing makeup!!!!" that completely miss the point. that's sort of the same thing happening when fat activists/people that advocate for fat liberation point out the flaws in diet culture and get "but I NEED to lose weight for (xyz "good" reasons) are you saying I'm a bad person?" that completely miss the point.

in an ideal world, people could lose and gain weight without a single bat of an eye. but we don't live in that world. not only is it scientifically proven that most people CANNOT sustainably keep weight they've lost off (and no, not due to lack of self control) and that losing weight (especially rapidly) can have some huge health consequences, but, more relevantly, these ideas of weight and health and beauty are SO tangled up in fatphobia and western beauty standards that it's nigh impossible to reach some Enlightened State where your reason for weight loss is untouched by it.

you want to lose weight to "be healthier?" who told you you were unhealthy? was it your doctor? doctors that routinely suggest fat patients lose weight for every complaint ever including the common cold or a broken bone? was it society telling you being fat is unhealthy even though you ARE healthy? and if you're Not healthy, do you know for sure it's your weight? because thin people can also have high cholesterol and heart problems. there's other ways to fix these things that don't involve weight loss to dangerous degrees, but doctors are already so up their own ass about fat people that they probably didn't discuss anything with you other than "lose weight." does that mean no fat person ever is unhealthy because they're fat? no. but it Does mean that that reason is so tangled up in fatphobia that 100% stating you're free of diet culture when you say it just is Not accurate

you want to lose weight to "feel better about yourself"? well this one's easy and won't be as long as the last. why do you feel that way? who taught you that being fat is something to feel bad about? if you lived 500 years ago before diet culture, would you feel pressure to lose weight to feel better about yourself?

and none of this is to say you CAN'T chose to lose weight. it's your body. you can do whatever the fuck you want with it, good or bad. but when people talk about fatphobia and fat liberation and your first response is "oh but I'm losing weight for the GOOD reasons" stop yourself. ask if that's relevant to the conversation. ask yourself if those reasons ARE neutral. if they're tied to health, body image (including dysphoria!), or how other people perceive you? the answer is no

self care based on your chart

I talked about the signs and houses connection to body parts and many of you requested this post. These are ways to do your self-care using your chart, the signs, and planetary placements and aspects. The same concept can be applied using simple self-love practices in other areas of life too.

✧ notes 

I recommend you look at your transits chart or solar return as well to better know the best self-care practices at the time. You can base your general self-care on your natal chart but the transits can tell you the best times to take action or avoid taking action on something significant. 

Look for the planets placements and their aspects, mainly if in the angular houses or make many significant aspects. Like I mentioned before I got so much dental work done when saturn was in the 10th, conjunct my mc and opposite north node, it was expensive but I was able to afford it.

You can also consider the degrees if you're feeling extra, in your natal chart and your solar return. Degrees can be associated with signs, so they can be simply linked to the areas they rule.

Planets rule things related to body parts like diseases or accidents and influence certain parts of the body depending on the aspects they make. Also two planets can influence the same body parts.

✧ SIGNS

how to create a good morning routine

in comparison to a night routine, a good morning routine should be a bit more intensive. the morning should be the time of day where you get the most important or off-putting tasks on your to do list out of the way. there's two different approaches i would take to creating a morning routine, depending on if you're used to waking up on time, or if you have trouble getting out of bed.

the big question:

what do you want to get out of your morning routine? do you want more productive hours in the day? do you want more time to spend with yourself? find your answer and make sure it's a good one. if you don't have a reason that's good enough to get you out of bed, you won't.

the benefits of a morning routine:

starting the day off on the right foot. you have time to regulate yourself and get ready without missing any steps. feeling organized and prepared for the day will help your overall mood as the day goes on. a good morning routine should reduce the stress you feel in your daily life.

punctuality. you know what you need to do, what order to do it in and you're leaving the house on time. many of us have a habit of running late. it's rude and gives the impression that you're unreliable. being on time should always be a priority.

more free time later in the day. you could have more time for self improvement, leisure or picking up new projects if you set up your morning properly.

how to plan a morning routine:

how much time do you have? make sure you have a clear picture of how long you have to run through your morning routine and how much of that time it takes to get ready.

choose what your first activity of the day is. once you've turned off your alarm, you need to stay out of bed. if you have faith in your discipline already, exercise or chores should be first on the list. if you're still adjusting to early mornings or you just prefer a more laid back morning, make yourself an easy breakfast and watch a show or a youtube video. make sure your first activity is something that will get you out of bed, and is not so overwhelming that you're tempted to press snooze.

choose what the last activity of your morning routine is. this needs to be something that will take pressure off the rest of your day. it can change from day to day too, as long as you know what it is by the day before. if you're behind on emails, this is your chance. if you have a speech that's not well enough practiced, practice it. use this time slot to change the mood of your day for the better, get the worst out of the way.

write out a schedule. this can always change later, but you need an idea of what you're aiming for. be realistic in how long it takes to get things done.

example morning routine:

6.00am - 6.30am: yoga

6.30am - 7.30am: shower, skincare, get dressed, do hair and makeup

7.30am - 8.00am: breakfast

8.00am - 9.00am: revise for quiz

9.00am: leave house

other tips:

try to stay off your phone for the first hour of the day. this is to minimize distraction and to make you less dependent on social media. you don't need a rush of dopamine first thing in the morning.

try to drink a glass of water before you go for coffee. being well hydrated helps you stay awake and alert and is a lot kinder to your digestive system than coffee. in addition, caffeine is a diuretic so it's important to drink a lot of water with it.

make sure your breakfast is satisfying in order to maintain energy levels throughout the day. go for protein and fats over carbs first thing in the morning (fats especially if you're taking supplements, several nutrients absorb better when taken with fat). that being said, don't avoid carbs. add a low gi option such as fruit, steel cut oats or certain breads (most grocery stores have low gi options for bread).

most importantly, cater your morning routine to you. being productive might be less important to you than curling your hair just right, or taking your dog for a walk might improve your mood better than getting ahead of your emails. it's your day and you know what will make it good. honour yourself and enjoy your morning.

hi there, thank you for reading this far. this is a follow up post to how to create a good night routine. i'm glad you're all enjoying my blog so far. wishing light, love and prosperity to all <3

10.28.24 (Day 18)

I've been experiencing some troubling motion sickness and stomach cramps in the morning. They usually die out by the afternoon, but they've made getting to work on time very difficult. I feel a lot of pressure in my stomach in the morning, and it feels like I'm constantly full even if I haven't eaten. It's been slowly lessening since I first started experiencing it but it still concerns me. I hope that taking my testosterone prescription at night will help balance things out because scheduling my meals to avoid feeling sick has been exhausting.

I've noticed that anxiety and nervousness tend to exacerbate my side effects. Since I care so much about getting to work on time and not missing any more shifts due to inability to return to the state or being sick, I worry so much about getting to work in the morning. I find it very difficult to calm my nerves until I actually make it to work. I've also noticed that I feel less dizzy and nauseous standing up than I do sitting down. I've taken to standing when taking the bus even when I don't feel particularly sick. I just feel more comfortable doing that right now. It's better than sprinting out of the bus when I feel too dizzy, sitting on the sidewalk to wait for an Uber, and laying my head down with the window open so I can hold myself over until I arrive at work.

After doing a little more research, I've learned that some trans men and other individuals who start taking T experience something they like to call "T flu". They feel tired, congested, and/or nauseous. It goes away eventually but it's something that, in their experiences, they just have to power through. I hate the idea of having to "power through" this. I know it's not exactly the most common experience when starting T. I don't want to be part of an uncommon statistic. It is comforting to know that there are more people who've experienced this than I thought, though. Glad to know I'm not alone.

I didn't realize how much it bothered me until now. I've told my family about my struggle with eating lately. I'm glad it's been getting better, but it still fluctuates at times. I've told them how important it is that I exercise and factor more protein, Calcium, and Vitamin D in my diet. I told my younger sibling how I've taken to purchasing a certain protein shake my dad used to provide for me that helps with my need for these nutrients when I struggle to eat. They said I should just eat more. They said I should just tough it out. They said all these things that made it sound like it couldn't be easier but it's just not. I don't have the best understanding of what's happening to my body. I'm still learning and adjusting. You can't tell me to do this or not do that when you aren't experiencing this. It's my body, my experience. You don't know what you're talking about. You can't know. I'm so tired of her and the rest of my family talk to me like they know my body better than I do. Until they start transitioning, they'll never understand.

I'm happy to have started working out. I may have pushed myself a little because when I was done I was very sore and dizzy. But I stuck to it and didn't stop! I'm very proud of myself and I plan to make this a routine thing. My plan is to do five minutes of stretches and twenty/twenty-five minutes of walking/running on my mother's treadmill. That seems to work out well for me. I drink my protein shake right and I feel great. I know this'll help me to adjust to all the body fat redistribution, and I'm excited to see how my body will change in accordance to this. Will I look lean? Will I look muscular? I'm used to being underweight or at least less than expected. I'll have to find other ways to bulk up if this doesn't work. Should I start lifting weights? They kind of scare me. I'll just stick to this for now. I like where things are headed for me! <3

Easy ways to change up your world;

1) Open your washing machines. (Clothes or dishes or whatever). Let them dry out ... Too many people leave them closed and they get that dirty moldy mildewy smell.

2) use less fabric softener and smell good stuff. You only need to add it during the wash cycle or the dry cycle, not really both. And it's better for certain fabrics one or the other.

Some people have sensitive skin and their skin is negatively affected by dryer sheets. Because how they work is by melting onto your clothes. And so if you have sensitive skin, it could be aggravated by the chemicals on your skin.

3) let your bathroom air out. Leave the door open if you don't have a window in their. This is for the same reason as your washing machines.

4) air out your living space. You need to open the windows and let fresh air in. If you're in a basement or some place with small windows, I'm sorry, but you'll need a fan with a built in air filter mechanism to help cleanup the dust particles and microbes and febreeze particles still in the air.

5) go outside for a couple of hours a day. Sunlight helps to alleviate depression, and helps your body produce nutrients and energy. You're not a solar panel or a plant, but its still feels good.

6) go for a walk. Moving your legs is a good way to get exercise and move around, and helps clear your head.

7) eat a salad; I'm not saying to get rid of your high red-meat diet. But vegetables gives you vitamins, nutrients, and a little bit more water and helps clean out your blood stream.

8) eat less carbs. Just make it so it's not your main dietary supplement. Breads, Oats, Noodles, Rice, can be excessive, especially in most people's diets around the world. This becomes sugars, and can give you too much energy that your body can't use.

10) wash your towel. Some people don't wash them enough.

11) interact with other people. Socialization is a key part of being human, and helps your brain drink from different perspectives.

12) interact less with other people. It's possible to over-socialize. And so giving yourself time away from other people helps you to connect with yourself.

13) drink more water. This is obvious, and yet people have to be reminded. If you haven't had at least one glass of water today, you should get a glass of water.

14) drink less non-water drinks. This is less obvious, but it tricks your brain into thinking you're hydrating when you're not. It also helps to cut excess calories.

15) Allow yourself to experiment once a day. Either with a new food, a new hobby, maybe up cycle something. This doesn't mean buy into a new hundred dollar hobby every day. Just do something that seems like you'd enjoy.

Go to that place over there, try cooking something you normally wouldn't (even if you make it poorly) make a piece of jewelry, scribble some art work, write whatever it is you're thinking about. Just anything really.

16) play more games. People need to have fun. Again, you don't need to be spending a hundred dollars to buy a new game everyday, there's plenty of free alternatives.

Is It Possible to See Keto Diet Weight Loss After 1 Month

Hey there! So, you're curious about this thing called the keto diet, right? Well, let me break it down for you in simple terms.

The keto diet is a special way of eating that helps people lose weight. It's all about eating foods that are low in carbs and high in fat. And guess what? Lots of people have seen some pretty amazing weight loss results in just one month!

But hold on a sec! Remember, everyone is different, so your experience may not be exactly the same. Keep that in mind, okay?

Now, let's talk about why the keto diet works so well for weight loss. First, it makes your body burn fat instead of carbs. When you eat fewer carbs, your body goes into a state called ketosis. In ketosis, your body uses fat for energy instead of carbs. Cool, right?

Second, the keto diet can help you feel full and satisfied because of all the high-fat foods you get to eat. It's like a yummy feast!

Third, the keto diet can actually make your body better at using a hormone called insulin. Insulin helps your body use sugar for energy, but when you have too much of it, you can gain weight. The keto diet helps improve how your body uses insulin, which can help you lose weight.

Now, before you jump into the keto world, it's important to chat with your doctor. The keto diet isn't right for everyone, so it's best to make sure it's safe for you.

Here are a few tips to help you get started on the keto diet for weight loss:

1. Set realistic goals. Don't expect to shed a ton of weight in just one month. Aim for 1-2 pounds per week instead.

2. Keep track of your progress. Write down your weight, what you eat, and your exercise. It helps you stay focused.

3. Patience is key. Remember, the keto diet takes time to show results. Don't get discouraged if you don't see instant changes.

4. Make sure you're getting enough nutrients. The keto diet can sometimes leave you lacking in certain vitamins and minerals, so be mindful of that.

By following these tips, you increase your chances of seeing some amazing weight loss results on the keto diet after just one month!

Oh, and let me give you some extra info about the keto diet:

- The keto diet means eating foods that are high in fat, moderate in protein, and low in carbs.

- The goal is to get your body into a state called ketosis.

- Ketosis is when your body burns fat instead of carbs for energy.

- When you're in ketosis, your body produces something called ketones, which can fuel your brain and other organs.

- Before starting the keto diet, it's important to talk to your doctor, as there can be some side effects like tiredness, queasiness, and constipation.

- If you experience any side effects, don't hesitate to have a chat with your doctor.

Now, let's talk about what foods you can enjoy on the keto diet:

- Meat

- Fish

- Eggs

- Non-starchy veggies

- Healthy fats like olive oil, avocado oil, and nuts

- Some dairy products like cheese and cream

And here are the foods you should avoid:

- Grains

- Sugar

- Starchy veggies like potatoes, corn, and carrots

- Legumes

- Fruits

- Some dairy products like milk and yogurt

If you're thinking about trying the keto diet, be sure to do your research and talk to your doctor. It can be a healthy and effective way to lose weight, but it's important to make sure it's the right choice for you.

Take care, and good luck on

What healthy habits harm weight loss?

Although you are leading a healthy life with healthy habits, there are some that can harm your weight loss and we explain what they are. There are certain healthy habits that can be counterproductive when it comes to losing weight. It is thought that switching to healthier lifestyles, such as improving your diet, going to the gym and sleeping more will help you lose weight. However, what works for many people, is not the most appropriate for everyone. Your intention may be the best, but you must be careful. Sometimes, unintentionally you can be spoiling the efforts to lose some weight. What mistakes can you are making?

1. Drastically reduce food portions

Getting the amount you eat to be the right one should not mean killing you with hunger. If you reduce much what you put on the plate, your body will take action and nothing good will happen. Your hormones will turn against you and you will enter a continuous state of hunger. The result is that anxiety will appear and you will feel a sense of failure in your plan. The solution is to achieve a perfect balance between proteins, vegetables and healthy fats from 3 to 5 hours.

2. Betting on light foods

Opting for light or reduced-fat foods is not synonymous with helping you achieve your goals. Many times these products incorporate more sugars or other additives that hurt more to your intentions to lose weight than the product ' no light '.

In addition, your body needs fats, and if you take them all, we are in the problem before. The only fat that you should remove yes or yes is the “trans ", which is usually in processed foods, such as pastries, some cookies, chips, etc.

Try foods with healthy fats such as salmon, nuts or avocados. This type of healthy habits can be really counterproductive to a healthy diet.

3. Use energy bars and drinks

Filling your energy tank with bars and sports drinks is only a good idea if you are going to play sports later. Most have many calories and can even get the exercise you've done is worth nothing, as far as weight loss is concerned.

We recommend water before, during and after your exercise sessions, as well as eating nuts to increase our energy reserves.

4. Healthy habits that will not make you lose weight: do an excessive cardio exercise

This is one of the worst integrated healthy habits. Do not get obsessed with doing cardio every day. You will not lose as much weight as you would if you combined cardio with hard work.

If you manage to strengthen your muscles, you will burn more calories. Try working with high intensity exercises three days a week, alternating with cardio work for a couple of days.

5. Abusing artificial sweeteners

The sugar added to meals is a bad idea. However, the food option with artificial sweeteners is not better. Maybe in the short term they will help you lose weight, but in the long term you run the risk of suffering other health problems.

6. Prioritize gluten-free foods

It has become fashionable to consume gluten- free foods to lose weight. It is a serious mistake. Unless you're celiac, you should not make that decision. Sometimes in its preparation very caloric ingredients are used to improve the flavor. If the goal is to lose weight, this is one of the healthy habits that will not do us any good.

In short, we must avoid these healthy counterproductive habits to maintain a healthy diet and an appropriate lifestyle and, at the same time, lose weight.

The keys to a healthy diet are to measure the proportions well, combine the food well and make sure that each dish has the right amounts of each nutrient. This is the most appropriate and simple way to lose weight, in addition to the most effective. Thus, it will not be necessary to resort to complicated methods of self-deception or crazy practices to try to follow a certain diet. We must also take into account the components of the products we buy carefully read the labels and inform us of their composition. So we will be more aware of what we eat without spending the day counting calories or wondering why we do not get the results we want.

After the 4-day study, those who received lemon reported less nausea than those who received an almond oil placebo by up to 9%. Lemons' essential oils can be released into the air by cutting or scratching their skin. 

When you're away from home, a vial of lemon essential oil might be a helpful substitute. Freshly cut lemons or essential oils purchased at the shop both have citrusy scents that may help ease nausea brought on by pregnancy.

Controlling Breathing

It can be beneficial to take slow, deep breaths to reduce nausea. Participating in mindfulness meditation, which emphasizes controlled breathing methods, may be helpful. A simple and cost-effective at-home treatment for nausea is specific controlled breathing exercises.

With or without fragrance, controlled breathing was proven to be efficient. So the next time you feel nausea, take a deep breath in your nose, hold it for three counts, and then exhale through your mouth for three counts. Triple-click that.

Keeping Yourself Hydrated

Constant sipping a glass of water is one of the primary healthy ways to treat illness. Some people may find ice to be a beneficial resource. The body and brain need to stay well hydrated. 

This practice has been proven very helpful against nausea and vomiting, and it is far better than using Cenforce Tablets and Fildena 120 from the 24x7 Pharma store.

Sucking on ice chips or frozen fruit pops will help you stay hydrated. Sips of water, weak tea, carbonated-free clear soft drinks, caffeine-free sports drinks, or broth are also good options. Compared to other liquids, sugary beverages may help to settle the stomach.

Avoid Heavy Meal

If you're feeling nausea or throwing up, resist the urge to eat anything. If you frequently vomit, it's recommended that you wait 4 to 8 hours before eating. Try taking little water sips or flat lemons along the route. Never consume heavy mensal right after vomiting. It might result far worse than before.

Start replacing some of the nutrients and liquids you may have lost due to the vomiting when your stomach has calmed down. Take little bits of gelatin, or try drinking chicken or veggie broth. Don't overstuff yourself.

Causes of Nausea & Vomiting

The tips we have mentioned will surely help cure nausea and vomiting. But what are the causes of these conditions?

Stomach flu or food poisoning might be the reason for feeling nausea in most cases. Vomiting or throwing up pushes stomach contents through the oesophagus and out the mouth. 

Vomiting can be caused by many factors like an infection on injury in the stomach and intestine, dizziness or motion sickness, or it could be caused by some severe disorder like head injury, tumor, brain infection, etc.

Top Foods For Stress Management

Introduction

As we all know, stress is a common enemy. It can cause us to make poor decisions, feel overwhelmed, and even be sick. Fortunately, there are many foods that can help us manage our stress levels. This article will explore some of the top foods for stress management. From nutrient-rich fruits and vegetables to bold spices, read on to learn which foods work best for combating stress.

The Different Types of Stress

Different types of stress can affect people in different ways. For example, some people feel more stressed out after working a long day, while others feel more stressed out after a fight with their partner. The following is a list of the different types of stress and some foods that can help to relieve them.

Physical stress: This type of stress is caused by an external factor, like being in a crowded place or having to lift heavy objects. Physical stress can be relieved by exercise or eating foods high in carbohydrates and protein.

Emotional stress: This type of stress is caused by events inside our own heads, like worrying about a test or feeling anxious about an upcoming job interview. Emotional stress can be relieved by talking to someone, practicing relaxation techniques, or eating foods high in serotonin (a mood-elevating hormone).

Mental health issues: Sometimes, it's difficult to tell the difference between physical and emotional stress. If you're struggling with mental health issues, you can visit a stress management centre Indirapuram, and talk to your doctor or therapist about how certain foods might help you relax.

Foods That Help Reduce Stress

Researchers have found that certain foods can help reduce stress. These include:

Salmon: This fish is a good source of omega-3 fatty acids, which are essential for reducing inflammation and managing stress.

Beans: Beans are a great source of fibre, which can help to improve digestion and reduce stress levels.

Broccoli: Broccoli is high in antioxidants, which can help to fight inflammation and boost the immune system.

Low-fat yoghurt: Yoghurt is a good source of protein and calcium, both of which are important for reducing stress levels.

Ways to Eat Healthy When You're stressed

When you're dealing with a lot of stress, it can be tough to eat healthily. But there are ways to make sure you're getting the nutrients your body needs while still managing your stress levels:

Eat breakfast every day. Try oatmeal, yoghurt, fruit, or a smoothie for a nutritious start to the day.

Plan your meals ahead of time.

Avoid processed foods whenever possible.

Get enough exercise.

Limit alcohol intake.

Conclusion

Stress can have a dramatic and negative impact on your health. Effective stress management can be achieved in many ways. Finding a strategy that works for you is what matters most. Some people find that yoga or meditation or visiting a stress management centre helps them relax and reduce their stress levels. Other people find that they work better when they take short breaks every few hours to do something active, like eating their favourite snacks, going for a walk or taking a shower. Whatever approach you choose, make sure to keep track of how you're doing and adjust your routine as needed. Sparsh Vandan is an ideal place to get help for stress management, contact the centre today and see the difference yourself.

When you’re trying to lose weight, it’s important to stay healthy and not just focus on the number on the scale. That’s why this list of healthy weight loss tips will help you shed pounds in a safe way that doesn’t sacrifice your overall well-being. Whether you want to lose 10 pounds or more, these suggestions will help ensure your weight loss is as healthy as possible and keeps up with your goals!

Shedding excess pounds safely

You’ve likely heard of crash diets, which come with severe limitations. They also come with extremely quick weight loss, but at a cost. If you’re trying to lose weight for good without putting your health at risk, it’s best to look into safe ways to shed excess pounds. Here are a few tips that can help you on your journey towards a healthier lifestyle. For example, check out how some of these tips have helped me personally. I’m confident they can work for you too! For example, I recently decided to focus on losing fat in my belly region (I had gained a lot over time) by cutting back my calories significantly—without going hungry or resorting to extreme measures like unsafe fad diets or unhealthy supplements—and simply eating natural foods while exercising regularly. It took some time and dedication, but in less than two months I was able to go from carrying around 10 extra pounds around my belly region down to 6. Not only did I get rid of those pesky extra inches; but more importantly, I felt better about myself knowing that I achieved my goal safely and naturally! Good luck on your journey towards healthy weight loss!

Keep an eye on your nutrient levels

It’s one thing to exercise regularly and take in a healthy, nutrient-dense diet—but it’s important to monitor your levels of vitamins, minerals, electrolytes, etc. This is especially true if you have a health condition or an ongoing illness that might make it difficult for you to feel (or see) any effects of making dietary changes. For example, someone with Type 1 diabetes may need higher levels of magnesium and/or zinc than someone without a medical condition. If you find you aren’t losing weight as quickly as expected or experiencing side effects from your efforts, speak with your doctor about supplementing your plan with extra nutrients.

Understand Why Some People Fail

Many of us assume our weight loss struggles stem from a lack of discipline or willpower, but research shows that our body is not as simple as we'd like it to be. For example, certain foods don't just pack on pounds; they also trigger hormones in your body that tell you you're hungry even when you've already eaten. Similarly, sometimes we don't gain weight because we eat too much—we gain weight because a hormone imbalance tells us not to stop eating. Many factors affect our bodies ability to lose fat; some are still mysteries for scientists, so it's best not to take yourself or your own health for granted.

Make Weight Lifting Part of Your Routine

Lifting weights is an excellent way to lose weight. It boosts metabolism, burns calories during exercise, and builds muscle. Increasing your muscle mass will also increase your resting metabolic rate—the number of calories you burn while at rest. Most important, lifting weights doesn't require much time or equipment: A good, 30-minute full-body workout can be done with just one pair of dumbbells, which you can find at most sporting goods stores for less than $50. You don't need a gym membership; all you need is enough space in your home to do a few basic exercises like squats and pushups.

Get Moving in Moderation

One of the biggest mistakes people make when they want to lose weight is over-exercising. It’s common for people trying to shed pounds to do lots of cardio, but what you really need are high-intensity exercises that work your muscles in new ways. High-intensity interval training, where you alternate between low- and high-intensity exercise for periods of 20–30 seconds like sprinting or shadowboxing is one way to do it. Try mixing in resistance training with plyometrics (exercises like squat jumps) which will help build muscle mass without adding a lot of bulk. Follow up these exercises with a 5-minute cool down where you stretch out all your muscles again, rather than rushing off right after your workout is done – cooling down prevents injury.

Change Your Diet, But Don’t Overdo It

Diet plays a crucial role in weight loss. Yet one of the most common mistakes people make when trying to lose weight is going on an extreme diet that leaves them hungry. Try eating small, regular meals instead of large ones (just be sure not to overeat). Make sure you have fiber-rich foods at each meal so you can stay full longer. Drink plenty of water—this will help keep you hydrated, which leads to healthy bowel movements. What’s more, according to research, staying well-hydrated may also prompt your body’s muscles to use more fat as fuel! These are just a few healthy weight loss tips you should start incorporating into your daily routine today.

[deadmomjokes]

I want to thank you for your addition onto that food/exercise post, because I've been trying to find a way to unlearn bad thoughts I have regarding food (telling myself that I need to eat "better" or "healthier", moralizing my food choices as bad or good, and your addition to that post helped me find language that doesn't encourage me to blame myself for some of the foods I eat.

You're very, very welcome. I'm right there with you in the middle of the pits of unlearning, so I know exactly what you mean and where you're coming from.

Having my daughter really woke me up to a lot of stuff I needed and wanted to change about the way I thought, and food was/is a huge one. I have a history of borderline disordered eating, and a massively complicated relationship with food and weight and body image and all that. But seeing this tiny little person with no preconceptions and no knowledge of what food even is really opened my eyes. I'm (re)learning right alongside her while I try to make sure she never ends up in the same places I did.

In case it's helpful, to you or anyone else looking into shifting their views on eating, her dad and I focus on four main things that we want to instill in her regarding food. (Below the cut for length purposes.)

What I said in that post, which is that foods do either lots of good things or only a few good things for your body, and you want overall more of the 'lots of good things' foods. We make the conscious effort to never let the word 'unhealthy' come out of our mouths. Sometimes it's 'less healthy' or 'less good for your body' with foods like candy, but we build it back on a foundation of 'candy isn't bad, it's just not the best food for you and too much can make your body feel yucky.' Another way I've seen this put is "sometimes food" and "anytime food." Cookies and chocolate are lovely "sometimes foods," and so are french fries and chips. Things that are more nutrient dense are "anytime foods."

We eat a wide variety of foods, because they all have different things our bodies need. She'll even ask us now 'what's this one have?' when she's trying a food, and we get to tell her about how yogurt has lots of good protein, and oranges have vitamin C and fiber. (We can get her to balance her meals this way, too; if we tell her plate needs more, different foods, she'll almost always willingly add something to her request. Today, breakfast was bagel and cream cheese. She wanted lunch to be cereal, but we told her she already had lots of grains and we needed something a little different. So she switched to chicken nuggets and apple, and we got to talk about protein and fiber. It was awesome. She's awesome.)

She decides when she's full, and we don't argue or bargain. None of the dessert bribery that people do, and none of the 'clean your plate' or 'no, you're not done, you have to have x-many bites'. We cannot dictate how she feels. It's her body, and her stomach and mouth are part of that. If she only eats three bites of dinner and says she's done, we do ask follow-up questions to make sure she's really not hungry vs. looking for something different, but we never force her to eat. Those "sometimes foods," or 'treats' like cookies and candy have their place, but we don't use them as a reward for first eating "good" food. That just teaches her that certain foods aren't fun, and others are forbidden except for when she's doing something someone wants. Just lots of complicated and not-exactly-positive messages wrapped up in there. It's okay to reward yourself with things you like, but only so long as you don't bring guilt or shame into it. Because...

Food should taste and feel good, it's okay to have preferences, and it's okay to both try and decline trying. Her favorite meal is chicken nuggets and fries, and we let that happen within reason because her preferences matter. She also LOVES roasted seaweed, which I'm neutral on and my husband greatly dislikes. You better believe our pantry has a toddler-height shelf with seaweed just for her. She dislikes beef, but is a good sport a lot of the time and tries it when I make it. BUT, we also make sure there are lots of other things in the meal that she does like, so if she either doesn't enjoy it or doesn't feel like trying, she's not stuck choking it down or feeling pressured to do so. You don't have to force yourself to eat something you don't enjoy just because you think you should or 'it's sooooooo good for you'. (I'm sorry, I have yet to find a way to cook Brussels Sprouts that don't make me wanna claw my own tongue off, no matter how much vitamin K and vitamin c they would give me, and beets make me gag with no exceptions. I don't eat either of them, and I don't feel bad for doing so.) You should definitely feel free to play around and find new ways to try it, because maybe you're like my daughter and hate peas that come in a can with a burning, kitchen-destroying passion, but love steamed, frozen ones with butter. But you also don't need to hold onto guilt surrounding all the 'healthy' food you should like, and all the 'unhealthy' food you shouldn't. Do you feel guilty for your favorite color because there's so many other colors out there that other people just love? Do you also surround yourself with only one color and shun all others? Food is color. Build yourself a kaleidoscope and enjoy it.

I know this is tangenty, but I have a lot of feelings about food now lol

5 simple tips for heath and fitness success

1. Exercise Daily

Exercise daily for at least an hour. You do not have to kill yourself from running, jogging, etc., but you should have some sort of moderate physical activity in your everyday life. If you're looking to shed a few pounds fast, do a higher-level intensity workout. For example, go on a walk at a brisk pace for an hour. Or, you can jog and set certain intervals to sprint during that hour. Make sure you're not in severe pain during your workout. Just a warning, your muscles will ache after a high intensity workout. It may be irritating, but that means your body is changing for the better. Be sure to stay hydrated, stretch, and eat foods with a decent amount of protein after each workout. The protein will help keep your muscles, not fat, rebuilding.

2. Eat the Right Foods and Portion Each Meal

No matter how bad your stomach is telling you to go for candy over healthy food, try to stay away from sweets. Sugar from candy will not help you get in shape. Even if it's just a single candy bar, one will eventually lead to another. Fruits and vegetables are the best thing to eat when getting into shape. Apples, for example, do a good job at making the stomach feel full for up to 3 to 4 hours. Green vegetables such as green beans and broccoli keep the digestive system clean and running. Also, stick to lean meats like turkey and chicken. Seafood, such as, shrimp, and tilapia are also great alternatives. These foods are full of protein and healthy nutrients to help keep muscles fit and ready for workouts. In addition, be sure to portion what you eat. Having a good metabolism comes from portioning meals. Try to plan out eating six times a day and setting smaller portions, rather than having three large meals throughout the day. This will also help you find yourself breathing smoother when working out rather than huffing and puffing for air. This is because you will have less food in your digestive system, which means more energy is used toward your exercise.

3.Keep Track of Calories and Food Intake Per Day

Keeping track of how many calories you eat in a day will be helpful in planning out your physical exercising. Ever wonder why body builders' body masses are so big? That's because they plan out their meals and take in more (healthy) calories than the average person. On the other hand, losing weight and striving for a skinnier physique will involve more physical exercise than calories you ingest.

4.Be Sure to Get Sleep

Even though most of us have eight-hour jobs during the day or night, it is crucial to get enough sleep to recharge the body's batteries. Six to eight hours of sleep will keep the body going throughout the day, but if you happen to feel tired at any point after coming home from work, by all means take a small nap before exercising. You should only nap for about a half hour. This will prevent you from staying up later in the night.

5.Stay Motivated

An important key to being in shape is to set goals and keep a positive mindset. If you stay positive, you will be able to push yourself to get that fit body you've always wanted.

The first few months of the year has already come and gone, can you believe it? Do you feel like you’re already falling behind on your health and fitness goals for this year? Or maybe, you haven’t even gotten started. Are you tired of putting in the effort at the gym and not seeing results? Don’t worry, you’re not alone. Many people show the drive, determination, and consistent effort, but don’t reach their goals. To make it easier for you to stay on top of your game and keep up to date with the latest, we removed the guesswork and provided you with the top fitness tips. • Make sure you're eating clean and healthy- Food is what fuels your body to reach your goals and without proper nutrition through quality foods, you’re likely to stall. Therefore maintain a balanced diet consisting of fruits, vegetables, complex carbohydrates, complete proteins, and healthy fats like fish oils and flaxseeds. Eat five times a day, about every three hours, to stimulate your metabolism including two mini-meals between three basic meals. With activity levels decreasing throughout the day, eat less as the day goes on. Select healthier choices to have on standby in your fridge when hunger pangs or emotional eating strikes, such as a bowl of fresh strawberries or blueberries. • Stay hydrated- It's always important to hydrate yourself so that you can stay energized and fresh. Proper hydration allows our bodies to regulate body temperature. It also keeps joints lubricated and helps deliver nutrients to cells. Drinking adequate water helps us sleep better, improves mood, fight infections, and can improve cognition. • Exercise daily- Exercise daily for at least an hour. Exercising boosts Your Immune System and Can help You to Sleep well.You do not have to kill yourself from running, jogging, etc., but you should have some sort of moderate physical activity in your everyday life. If you're looking to shed a few pounds fast, do a higher-level intensity workout. For example, go on a walk at a brisk pace for an hour. Or, you can jog and set certain intervals to sprint during that hour. Make sure you're not in severe pain during your workout. Just a warning, your muscles will ache after a high intensity workout. It may be irritating, but that means your body is changing for the better. • Be sure to get adequate amount of sleep per day- Even though most of us have eight-hour jobs during the day or night, it is crucial to get enough sleep to recharge the body's batteries. Six to eight hours of sleep will keep the body going throughout the day, but if you happen to feel tired at any point after coming home from work, by all means take a small nap before exercising. You should only nap for about a half hour. This will prevent you from staying up later in the night. • Make sure to follow a healthy lifestyle- Here below are the important tips towards a healthy lifestyle-avoid drinking, avoid smoking. Avoid junk food, processed food, foods with high cholesterol, salt, sugar, and oil. • Eat slowly and treat yourself- One of the most powerful yet simple tips to try is to eat slowly. Put your fork down in between bites to keep from overeating. When you eat more slowly, you allow your mind some time to recognize when your body is full. Pat yourself on the back for all your hard work with a massage, your favorite TV show, or draw yourself a nice, relaxing bath. Prioritize self-care a few times a week. Just make sure your “treat” doesn’t sabotage your success: like a pint of Ben & Jerry’s. • Listen to music that motivates you- Music can help take your workout up a notch if it’s music that appeals to you. One of the best tips is to have a go-to playlist that instantly gets you in the zone to work out. It’s like having a trainer right in your ears. • Drink tea and lemon water- Drink caffeinated tea as an afternoon pick-me-up or decaf tea as a way to wind down at night. There are so many health benefits to tea including: lowering blood pressure, reducing wrinkles, aiding in weight loss and more. Drink lemon water in the morning to hydrate and balance

pH levels. Alternatively, dilute one teaspoon to a maximum of two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar in water. Start small and increase as you can handle the taste. • Burn more calories than you eat-It takes a deficit of 3,500 calories to lose one pound. If weight loss is your goal, your caloric intake should be less than your calories burnt. • Exchange the elevator for the stairs- There’s a reason we have stair climbers – getting those steps in is great exercise. Adding more flights of stairs into your routine can increase your conditioning as well! Apart from physical fitness, mental fitness is also important. Just as physical fitness provides us with an increased ability to respond to life in all its richness, mental fitness helps in the same way. It provides us more space to choose how to respond to a situation, whether that situation is a forethought, an external stimulus or a feeling. As a result, we are less likely to sustain (or cause) emotional and relational injury. To keep your mind fit and fresh don’t forget to listen to music, to meditate and keep yourself less stressed.

Conclusion

Regular physical activities and routine exercise is very necessary for the people of all age group especially younger generations. Health and fitness brings happiness in the life and helps a person to live stress free and disease free life.A person stays happier when he/she is fit and healthy. A fit and healthy person is less prone to chronic diseases. The healthy mind reacts better in a pressure situation. The self-confidence of a person is increased. Risk of heart failure is reduced drastically. With the increased immunity power body could fight cancerous cells. The intensity of the fracture is decreased with regular exercise.

Ways that can help Ease your Lower Back Pain - Painex Hospital

You've most likely experienced lower back pain. It affects more than 80% of people at some point in their lives. We're all curious about the best way to get rid of lower back pain quickly. Backache can be frustrating and draining at best. At its worst, this type of discomfort can be completely incapacitating. If you've ever awoken with a severe backache, you know how quickly such an ailment can derail your day, week, or even several months or years. There are numerous natural remedies for back pain that can help you reduce your medication intake or supplement your current medical treatment.

Explore these natural pain-relieving methods to see which ones work best for you.

1. Find a Physical Therapist :

This can make a big difference, especially if you've been in pain for more than 4-6 weeks. These specialists can help you become more mobile and flexible by using techniques such as electrical stimulation, ultrasound, heat, and muscle relaxation.

They can also teach you self-help exercises to keep your symptoms at bay. These can improve your posture and keep your back and abdominal muscles (your core) healthy.

Painex Clinic is the best solution when it comes to a surgery free back pain treatment in Pune. Our approach for non-surgical treatment helps you get better solutions for your back pain.

2. Sleep Better and sleep longer:

Getting enough sleep is another important strategy for staying in shape. You may experience sleep deprivation if you do not sleep in an optimal position. Aches can also be caused by poor sleeping posture. Make sure your spine is in a neutral position and try to sleep on your back. If you have trouble sleeping unless you're on your side, you should switch sides on a regular basis. Instead of placing your pillow beneath your shoulders, place it beneath your neck and head. Your back will feel less sore during the day if you get a good night's sleep. A good night's sleep can heal you and leave you feeling refreshed, rejuvenated, and less stressed.

3. Keep Moving, Keep Stretching :

Although it may seem counterintuitive to exercise when suffering from lower back pain, the right type of movement can help alleviate the discomfort. It's always a good idea to consult your doctor before engaging in physical activity when you're in pain, but this conversation is well worth having if you're in pain.

Yoga is an excellent way to stretch your back, improve the health of your muscles and joints, improve the distribution of healing nutrients through blood circulation, and increase spinal flexibility. Perform the stretches slowly at first and only progress if you are comfortable and not in pain. You will gradually be able to incorporate more stretches into your routine.

To begin, keep in mind that not all exercise is beneficial in combating back pain. When it comes to relieving back pain, a variety of exercises can be beneficial. According to studies, people who stay active despite low back pain are more flexible than those who play it safe and stay in bed for a week. Exercises that both strengthen and stretch your body are the most beneficial.

4. Ice and Heat:

Hot and/or cold therapy is another effective treatment option. This remedy is simple to implement and reasonably priced. Certain types of aches may be relieved by the application of heat and/or cold. This could include lower back pain caused by common causes such as spinal stenosis. If you have direct lower back pain as a result of an injury such as a collision, a fall, or a sports injury, hot/cold therapy may be an option. Other types of aches that may benefit from hot/cold applications include sore muscles from exercise and a pulled muscle caused by straining the back.

There isn't much evidence that ice will relieve your symptoms, but some people swear by it. Do you want to see if it will work for you? Apply ice to your lower back at least three times per day: in the morning, after work or school, and before bed. To protect your skin, wrap the ice or cold pack in a towel. Leave it on for no more than 15-20 minutes at a time.

Heat can help relieve low back pain. Moist heat, such as baths, showers, and hot packs, is more effective. However, you could try an electric heating pad. Apply it for 15 to 20 minutes at a time to your sore back. Set a timer to avoid falling asleep with it.

5. Reduce Your Stress, Calm your mind

Prolonged periods of high stress can be detrimental to your health, including your back. Stress can affect the way you breathe, which can lead to back tension and strain. Furthermore, it is common for people to become less active during times of stress. Unfortunately, becoming more sedentary is the polar opposite of what most people require during these times. Sitting at a desk, reclining on a couch, or staying in bed instead of stretching or exercising can be detrimental to your health. Consider making some minor changes to your habits to reduce stress and the likelihood of stress-related discomfort.

According to research, your mental state can influence your chances of developing low back pain more than clinical tests like MRIs and disc injections. People who have chronic pain or difficulty dealing with life's challenges are nearly three times more likely to have back pain than those who do not. That is, if you are constantly anxious or expect the worst in every situation, you are more likely to experience pain.

Mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR), for example, can help alleviate your symptoms. This exercise teaches you to tune out negative mental chatter and concentrate on your breathing. Look up how to use these techniques online.

Severe pain that is not relieved by self-care must be evaluated by a medical professional in order to receive an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan. We have the most experienced back pain specialist in Pune to provide you with proper guidance and various back pain treatment options.

Finding the best pain relief technique is usually a process of trial and error, so it's worth trying out different approaches. Try these natural back pain relief strategies and see what works best for you.
