Ans: Your aim should be to increase muscle mass and lower body fat. You should look at inch loss rather than your weight per se. Weight loss may reach a plateau but your exercises must include weight training which will help increase lean mass. Ensure consumption of low fat high protein foods. Have regular high fiber low carbohydrate meals within your requirements. .

Ans: Hypothyroidism is one of the causes of weight gain. Weight loss should be through fat loss and muscle gain. You can focus on eating a diet rich in complex carbohydrates like fiber rich foods e.g. frits, vegetables, whole grains, etc. Avoid alcohol, sweets, fast and processed foods, high fat foods, aerated water, etc. Adopt a regular exercise regimen.

Ans: LDL a cholesterol is high and you may benefit with treatment, apart from diet and exercise. HbA1c test needs to be done. I won’t be able to comment on Ayurvedic medicine as I have no experience of using it, it’s side effects etc. If your BMI is high, you will benefit with weight loss too.

Ans: Namaste!
At the outset, It’s important that you focus on feeling healthy, the weight and inch loss will happen. Eat healthy and do not deprive the body of vital nutrition. Drink plenty of hot water mixed with ginger and honey. This will help burn fat and also keep infections away. Practice Pranayama under the guidance if a qualified instructor. Walk at least 4 kilometres daily. Keep the mind calm by meditation at least for 20 minutes a day. The exercise that you have been doing will suddenly bring results, so keep it up. Give enough rest to both your mind and body and in due course of time, everything will happen. All the best.

Ans: Thank you for your query. As a physiotherapist, I recommend combining your daily walking routine with strength training exercises like squats, lunges, and resistance band exercises to build muscle, which boosts metabolism. Additionally, focus on high-intensity interval training (HIIT) to vary the intensity of your workouts and burn more calories. Incorporate core-strengthening exercises such as planks to enhance stability and overall fitness. Pay attention to diet and hydration as they play a crucial role in weight loss, ensuring you maintain a calorie deficit. Finally, consult with a nutritionist or fitness expert for personalized guidance. Wishing you success in your weight loss journey!
