Lets get healthy together thread

[_E_3]

Don't make dogs the reason you can't loose weight. I'm the biggest fraddy cat when it comes to dogs. Just ignore them or try taking someone along with you so that when you do happen to encounter a dog just hid behind the person then you'll be safe [emoji1] my neighborhood is full of dogs but that won't stop me

I LOST 1 KGS my dr weighted i dont know how i done but something must be working
walked to the drs and back today got some shopping as well
my dr told me to get vitamin D as its would help me
I love it when its sunny the beautiful Sun that Allah made so we could live in the light
but the only thing i have a problem with is that my medication makes me burn

 

[Umm Abed]

Use a sunhat and sunglasses and enjoy the sunshine.

Yup, I have a tip: My first tip is to think of yourself as being what you eat. Everything that you eat goes to everything in your body - your hair, your nails, your skin, etc. Do you want glowing healthy-looking skin? Do you want a full head of hair? Do you want nice nails? If those things matter to you, then you should definitely pay attention to eating healthy. Lol, hope that motivated you!

The truth is If we look great, we feel great. We have this self-confidence about us. We should never be vain. That said, even in Islam, we're supposed to eat healthy - for example, Prophet Muhammad :saws: (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “There is no vessel which the son of Adam can fill that is worse than his stomach, for it is enough for him to take a few bites in order to straighten his back. Yet if he is overcome by appetite, then he may fill it with a third of food, a third of drink, and a third of breath.”

And self-confidence in any human being is the most beautiful thing and makes a person that is not typically physically attractive look very attractive to the eye of any beholder; and that self-confidence can come about if we know we're doing right by ourselves.

This is interesting. I will try to get my exercise in at least daily and also try to eat better.

EDIT: I think my only problem will be getting motivation to do it. Also actually making myself eat well will be difficult. Any tips?

Sister, never ever starve yourself. What's the point of going on a diet if you feel miserable? Even if you manage to lose weight, you're not going to feel good about it and it's not going to be sustainable either for the long-term.

I think the point should always be to eat what you want but in moderation and also to try to make healthier choices as much as possible and of course to get whatever exercise you can eat, even if it is at home. Now, there's so many YouTube videos on exercises that you can do or follow or challenges that you can find online that works for you and is doable. And always start small.

:wa: (And peace be upon you)

This would be awesome

I tried to do a low carb high fat diet and well nothing happend and it just made me sad as i misst so much food

Im not really a vegetable eating person and if i have cooked veg il puke i cant stand them, but i absolutely love fruits, but the diet i was on i couldnt have fruits either.

I read forums after forums of people loosing so much weight after the 1st and 2nd weeks, me now i ended up putting on weight it was a disaster and i was even more sad

Lol, yeah, I know what you mean. I just ate a big bar of chocolate, and it was a guilty pleasure. But the truth is that I do try to eat healthy. Chocolate is my one vice, God forgive me.

Yeah, lol, tell me about it; it's so true. The unhealthy snacks are so inexpensive compared to fruits and veggies. (Sighs.) I wish it was the opposite. Is there like a farmer's market-type place near you or mini-food market-type places? If so, you can get better deals there.

I try to exercise for an hour daily (been a little lazy these past few days tho), although I am just ever so slightly underweight.

No idea why, I do like my fruits but I'm a chocolate addict lol, my eating habits aren't very good at all - want to correct them inshaAllah.

Il try and find one in sha Allah, i just have bad experiences in those places of feeling like "why are you here" or "i dont want to serve you" type of vibes off people its quite frankly not nice.
So i just stick to supermarkets where people are a bit nicer and i can fill my trolley with my snacks and feel happy lol

Asalamualykum,

I walked for two hours in total today.

1 hour to work and 1 hour back from work Alhamdulilah.

I can't always do this because it's usually always raining.

Alhamdulilah for the opportunity.

May Allah swt give us physical strength Ameen.

Wa alaykum assalam,

Ma'sha'Allah, that sounds wonderful.

I enjoy going on long walks myself in the countryside, nearby there are rose gardens and fields filled with fluffy sheep, alhamdulillah so peaceful.

I think walks not only physically keep you healthy, but also mentally reenergise you and lower your stress levels, especially in quiet places with lots of trees and greenery.
