Body: A temple to be worshipped daily

Fitness is the most overrated word, people assume being fit is to be skinny but it's not, rather it means having a toned body with enough strength, which certainly doesn't come from dieting. Dieting is another misinterpreted word, people think to diet means to starve; specially crash dieting in which people start cutting down their daily calorie intake by huge number to loose weight rapidly. But, dieting often leads to deprivation of vitamins, proteins and essential nutrients from body. Hence, leading to future weight gain, dehydration and risk of cardiac arrest.
One can only be fit and healthy by following a correct and well manged exercise and diet plans.Please stop being foolish by following diet plans for weight loss written in health articles, searching on YouTube etc, remember everyone has their own body types and body's daily nutritional requirements. Following any diet plan blindly can lead to severe health problems like thyroid, abdominal infections and even dementia.

It is always wise to start your own fitness regime so that you follow it easily and moreover happily. Here are some tips to follow to have a healthy body :

• First make a proper diet plan these days what to eat is more important than what time and how many times we eat.Have an early morning breakfast. Divide your meals to five shorter meals: Morning breakfast, Mid meal, Lunch, Evening snacks and dinner. Cut your carbs intake after lunch. DON'T STARVE YOURSELF.
• Build a habit of doing exercise or preferably yoga every morning. Yoga helps you keep energized whole day. Kapalbhati, Alom-Vilom, Surya Namaskar, are the most simpler ones which can be done easily. If you get bored you can always rotate your exercises. Even walking, taking stairs to reach your floor instead of lifts, bicycle riding etc are the simplest forms to increase your metabolic rate. 
• Keep a track of your weight every week. Keep track of your body's measurement like your waist and hip size too, this will help in encouraging you to see yourself getting trimmed and fit.
• Drink lots of water, this is very important because dehydration slows weight loss and increases tearing of muscles while exercising.

Make a daily fitness regime and follow it, Listen to your body. Remember a happy body is the most lively and soulful one like a temple you worship daily.
