Ramadan

I can't fast due to health reasons, but Ramadan Kareem in advance!

Hi I will be fasting and am very anxious to see how this will effect my on going weight loss efforts! I plan to eat iftar and then immediately go to the gym to get at least an hour of cardio in then come home and eat a full meal. Very healthy of course....might cut out starches I don't know. My dad said just put working out on hold till after Ramadan. Do you eat Sahur? I've never been one to eat it but I'm thinking about getting my green smoothie in at least some mornings.

Assalamu alaikum wr wb. With regards to sahoor, I have been told that having sahoor is supposed to help sustain us throughout the fasting hours, and there is blessing for those who consume sahoor. In shaa Allah, please feel free to add me if you would like .

As long as we all stay under our calorie limits, it shouldn't be that hard. The problem arises when we start stuffing our faces every single day at iftaar and only get up from the table when we feel like we are going to explode.
Make sure to get proteins and vegetables in you and avoid all the unhealthy snacks. You can have them in moderation, but dont go overboard. Enter your calories before you start eating and make sure you dont exceed them. If you are exceeding them, take something off of your plate and re enter.
Its not hard if you are committed.
Best of luck and Ramadan Mubarak!
May this month be full of blessings and good deeds. Remember, dont spend all of your time stressing over diet and exercise. This holy month only comes once a year, and you never know which Ramadan may be your last one. Spend some time getting closer to Allah, and being a good Muslim.
