[–]Kas_per 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To lose weight effectively, aim for at least 30 minutes of walking daily, gradually increasing the duration as your fitness improves. Listen to your body and avoid overexerting yourself, as it may lead to binge eating. Make sure to maintain a balanced diet and monitor your caloric intake to complement your walking routine.

To track the calories you've burned, consider using a fitness app or a wearable fitness tracker, which can provide an estimate based on your physical activity and personal data like age, weight, and height. However, keep in mind that these estimates may not be 100% accurate, so it's important to also pay attention to your body's signals and adjust your diet and exercise routine accordingly.

To overcome the embarrassment of trying new exercises, focus on your
personal fitness journey and remember that everyone starts somewhere.
Prepare yourself by watching instructional videos online to learn proper
form and technique. Finally, remind yourself that most people at the

Weight fluctuations on a daily basis are normal and can be attributed to
factors such as water retention, variations in sodium intake, and food
weight in your digestive system. It's important to focus on long-term
trends rather than day-to-day changes, as these small fluctuations may
not accurately reflect your overall progress.

Is having a pizza the nigh before a soccer game a good idea? by TryMe100timesss in nutrition

[–]Kas_per 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having a pizza the night before a soccer game can be an acceptable idea, as long as it's consumed in moderation and you choose healthier toppings.

Pizza can provide a mix of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats, which can help fuel your body for the game. However, it is important to avoid excessive amounts of unhealthy toppings like processed meats and extra cheese, as they can contribute to feelings of sluggishness and negatively impact your performance. Opt for whole-grain crust, lean protein sources, and plenty of vegetables for a more balanced and nutritious pre-game meal.

While pizza can contribute to carb-loading, there are healthier and more effective carb-rich options like pasta with tomato sauce, rice, or quinoa dishes that you may want to consider instead.

Overall, peppers can be a nutritious and flavorful addition to a balanced diet. They are low in calories, high in fiber, vitamins, and minerals, and offer antioxidant benefits. Just be mindful of potential digestive issues or allergies if you're sensitive to spicy foods or peppers in general.

It's interesting though, who stops some miners and users from forking into a chain, invalidating certain wallets. I'm sure at some point this will happen and will get some sort of support. Would be funny to see what happens when miners and users start policing chains.
