bile - isn't that the substance made by the gallbladder which helps in digestion of fat and oils?

indeed.. honey does help in the formation of bile salts.. So I just want to know what she means by suffering from bile.. since it is something we all hopefully should have to aid in digestion.
 
I am curious what you mean by suffering from 'bile'

I've no idea. It was phrased like that in the book (Medicine of the Prophet). Translations leave a lot to be desired for :\

and by what means is the fat 'melted' from the body..

It's just a phrase describing fast weight loss :)

lol nah. I wouldn't be able to survive on a few drinks anyway. I forgot to mention that he said to have the drink half an hour before meals :)
 
Yes, I would love to lose about 75 lbs.

I am not one for starving or depriving myself of any foods. I just watch how much I eat and any type of exercise is better than nothing. I tend to go walking early in the morning when they weather is cool. When I was younger.. ages ago... I would get up at 7:00 AM every morning and go run 2-3 miles a day.
 
Sis if you really want to lose some pounds I suggest signing up on myfitnesspal.com. It will calculate how much calories your body needs and then according to your weight loss goal they will give you a caloric deficit goal. Then you will have a food diary which you can add what sort of food you ate that day and make sure you meet your caloric goal!

OMG I was just going to recommend this!!!
What hulk said, this site is amazing, it does most of the work for you. I've lost half a stone in a month since I joined :D
Add friends to make the journey easier :)
 
My weight keeps yo-yoing. I need to lose 21 pounds but I keep thinking of chocolate :(
 
I have a friend who looooves sweet things. When I tell him he is addicted he gets all angry lol.
 
I ate quite a bit today for only 1075 calories perhaps the best combo as it was filling

Breakfast Nutella + mini cinnamon raisin bagel 198 calories
lunch Maple Pecan granola cereal + 1 medjdool date + 1 cup of low fat milk = 332
dinner beef kofta and white rice = 483

and running burned 155 calories ..
so from my self imposed 1200 calorie diet I get 282 calories left to spend whichever way I want.. I am actually not hungry..

so how is going for you guys? or you don't do it anymore?
 
I've been too lazy to cook proper food lately (which explains all the eggs lol), and honestly I've been to about 2 dinner functions these past 2 weeks so results haven't been optimal ;D

But I just bought a whole bunch of salmon fillets (cut from a whole salmon), so I'm going to have yet another salmon filled week. No mercury poisoning InshaAllah. Oh and I just realised that this thread was one of the first threads I participated in when I joined in 2010, this is the first time sis bluebell mentioned cartoned liquid egg whites I was like THERES SUCH A THING?
 
I use them all the time for meringue as to not waste yolk - don't like em on their own though .. In fact I've a very ambivalent relationship with eggs - sometimes they can be really off putting to me.

:w:

Do you run regularly?
I am just trying to get back into the habit.

What kind of distance do you run?
 
I try to mix it up but I do at least 17 minutes of stair climbing every day unless something comes up or I feel very sick but I try to push past whatever I am feeling.. otherwise brisk jogging down by the water or swimming which I am laying off a while because I hate to be on a path where I'll meet with other people.

That is often why I hate going jogging or walking outside :hmm:
 
I always blast my iPhone in my ears just can't stand the sight of other people too much sensory stimuli - so I try to go after fajr anyway but even then there are others who think along the same line I guess

I choose my times when I go walking and running if that's possible. Trying to avoid the school children or dog walkers is good, for example.

Sometimes that's not possible though, for example when I cycle to and from work. (I much rather whizz along on my bike than sit in the traffic in my car). Meeting other people is not so bad on the whole. I remind myself that they have just as much right to be there, walking, cycling, running or whatever, than I have.
 
i am always on a diet. well most of the time. and i love exercising. lately i've been doing brisk walking, on the way back from work as the weather has become nicer. brisk walking helps lose more calories than just walking (walking burns 300 c a hour; brisk walking burns more.) and the best thing is that it brings down my apetite too. so it's all good.

but whatever is wrong with this site, it's down most of the time.
