Alright, you’re 20 and weighing 53.85 kg, looking to shed the weight and that stubborn belly fat from lockdown. Must be frustrating trying everything with no results! Here’s how Ayurveda might help ya.
First off, let’s get into understanding your prakriti a bit. The weight issue could likely be related to a Kapha imbalance—Kapha governs structure and stability in us. When it’s accumulated, it can lead to weight gain, particularly stubborn belly fat. It’s pretty common, so don’t be hard on yourself!
Now, digestion is key—called Agni in Ayurveda. You gotta focus on improving this. One practical move: squeeze fresh lemon into a cup of warm water, drink it right after waking up. It kinda gets your digestive fire roaring, right from the start.
Exercise, you mentioned it not working. Try tweaking that. In Ayurveda, brisk walks or dynamic yoga like Surya Namaskar is preferred to be done in the morning when the sun’s coming up or late afternoon. And don’t just drop it after a week or two; make it a habit.
Let’s chat diet—skipping meals or extreme dieting is a no-go. Regular, light meals that are warm are best. Like having some spicy soups or stews. You need to avoid heavy, oily and sweet foods like dairy and sugary snacks that can build up Kapha. Instead, spices like ginger, cumin and black pepper, incorporate those into your meals—help keep that Agni lively.
Stay hydrated throughout the day but don’t gulp a lot of water right after a meal. Also, while you eat, practice mindful eating. It sounds a bit out there, but paying attention helps with digestion a ton.
Finally, sleep’s a sneaky factor. Aim for a regular sleep schedule, avoid heavy foods before bed, and try winding down with calming teas like chamomile.
Takes patience, all these little steps, but they add up. If things don’t change in a couple months, consider connecting with a practitioner to dig deeper.###
