I totally agree with this.. Why dont you try to correct the situation by going one thing at a time? you can start by kicking one bad food habit, master it over the next month and move on to kicking the next habit next month. Try forming minigoals. Dont focus on the entire picture just yet. Give time to yourself to…

Thanks for all the awesome inputs guys. I am taking away the following message from this thread: 1. continue with the strength traiing, increasing weights gradually 2. go slow with increasing length of HIIT 3. include long interval steady state cardio 4. and DONT compare myself with others.. I am doing HIIT and weights on…

There is one called "Gefit". it has a good library of workouts and there is a customisation function in it. You can design your workot end to end. I think there are video guides for individual exercises.

Have you started working out recently? If yes, I would suggest going a bit easy initially. Avoid exercises that put pressure on your lower back, make sure your posture is correct when you lift weight, never skip stretching and most important, do planks. Planks are the best thing you can do for your sciatica. I cant see any…

So now i am in a bet with a friend of mine that if i miss a day at the gym (except 2 rest days a week) I am to pay him a certain amount. I also have one going with my husband that we can go out for movies after i lose 5kgs..…

I ate chips on 2 days. I logged them but it left me hungry in the…

you get those spring/coil like plastic-y hair ties. those are good. that wont slip out up you hair midway and wont leave a mark as your hair are not tied up too tight.

Hi, You are right about sciatica and weight. Try planks and other core strengthening exercises (cat and cow position, cobra position, boat position) for the weeks leading up to the wedding. and make sure the footwear u use on a daily basis have good contour and cushioning. I had same issue. these exercises helped like a…

1. get average 10K steps for the entire week (7k and 11k on monday and tuesday respectively) 2. want to run a 5K race in March. Just signed up for it. But, I AM NOT A RUNNER..

Thanks for your inputs guys. Science/pseudoscience or not, I am of the opinion that it's better to be safe than sorry.

Some wonderful thoughts here. I have been thinking of this myself. I kind of figured out on the day mentioned above. 1. I was all alone at home with nothing to do. Usually I am at office typing away at my keyboard most of the day. My hands had nothing to do. 2. I drank way below my regular intake of water. so the thirst…
