i probably have a different opinion about it since i have used coconut oil for whole of my life for cooking. The whole state where i come from are completly depended on coconut oil. We all dont have cholestrol. nor more prone to getting... its a myth.

You can apply coconut oil on hair and leave it in for an hour or so before washing it off. I do that atleast twice a week.

All my life i used to coffee with lots of sugar, that too 5-8 cups a day. it was recently that i calculated calories im wasting in my coffee. I wanted to use that calories to eat more real food. The day i started cutting off sugar, i was the most horrible around. Angry, tired, a bad headache.. it was way better on 2nd day,…

I started to take off sugar from my diet just 6days back. Day 1 was horrible I must say. Headache, tired , cranky... I did cheat on 2 times, but I have pulled myself back on track. Day 6 was perfect with no sugar at all.(I do have natural sugar ie fruits) now I'm starting to feel that its not an impossible task. Give a try.

I am looking for losing weight. And its getting tougher and tougher to lose any more by now. That m/c at my gym, I m really not sure what u call it but that was calculated in the morning, fasting and I have to step on that and hold a handle like thing.
-
Not a calculator. I got this from in body analysis m/n at my gym. So the more active I am on a day(other than work out), I should be fine?
-
I'm 5'5" and 150 lbs.
-
I was not weighing every food. More of estimation.Yesterday I got myself a weighing m/c. But its turning out to be tough. We have so many ingredients in a curry, I don't know if I have to weigh all the spices as well.

I will add 40g of protien approx. 250 cal more and a see how it goes. And may be a fruit more... And on muscle mass I had no clue I am not building muscles yet. Every…

I guess I have no option but to up my intake. I am kind of worried here bcz its getting harder to lose weight and I feel so guilty for that extra bite of food. Also,Is it true that I cannot lose weight and build muscle at the same time? My strength and stamina is definitely increasing which I can make out from the weights…

Can I add more protein in my dinner? I was told to lower protein intake after evening snack as it can affect digestion. I don't have HRM to measure calories. for cardio my machine show abt 900cal. cals for strength training is from what my trainer told.

I started gym just 1 month back. Is it okay to add weights to my schedule now itself? Or shld I give myself a month more? Just bcz I'm out of practice, I'm getting tired by an alternate day cardio itself. My medication included steroids for some duration. I have noticed that weight is not coming down just by managing my…
