Stop Dieting If Have Any Of These 12 Symptoms
~1.9 mins read
Dieting is great if you want to lose some inches, cut down cholesterol or increase your energy levels. But hey, if you are dreading your diet routine, maybe it's time to give it a break. Here are 12 legit reasons you need to stop trying to lose weight, because truly your body will thank you for it.
1. You are hungry all the time.
This is a sign that your diet isn't fulfilling your body's nutrition. It makes you hungry and sometimes weak too. So quit starving yourself for a while.
2. Unhealthy relationship with food.
Is your relationship with food becoming a stressful one that you've begun to obsess over? This is proof that you've got to give yourself a much-needed break.
3. You binge-eat. All the time.
If you are binge-eating all the time, you are obviously not following your diet and end up starving yourself too. So why not take a break from it for a while.
4. You don't feel healthy or balanced.
Your diet is supposed to have a positive effect on you and your body and if that isn't happening then you need to stop.
5. You feel irritable and moody.
Feeling irritable and dabbling with mood swings is a sign that your diet is backfiring due to deprivation of essential nutrients.
6. You are having troubles with your periods.
Your menstrual cycle gets affected when there is a drastic change in your body and skipping your period is a negative sign.
7. You've lost your appetite completely.
Losing your appetite isn't a good thing. This means you're constantly anxious about what you put into your mouth and that's keeping you stressed.
8. You are getting depressed.
Depression is the result of less carbohydrates in your body which is needed for serotonin - the neurotransmitter that keeps you happy.
9. You feel like you are punishing yourself.
When you start feeling like you are punishing yourself is the time you need to stop your diet and start eating because otherwise you'll be miserable all the time.
10. You feel tired all the time.
This means the food you are eating isn't sufficient enough for your body and doesn't give you any energy.
11. Your diet becomes your life.
If you've begun to obsess over your diet to another level it's time to give yourself a break and indulge.
12. Your weight fluctuates.
If you can't come to a constant, balanced weight maybe it's time to look into your diet.

25 Habits To Let Go By The Time You Hit 25, Cuz YOLO Only Looks Good In Texts
~2.1 mins read
Turning 25 is a year of many milestones. You are now a true adult who is expected to hold a job, have completed at least your graduation if not your masters. While a lot of things are expected of you, there are a few you should expect out of yourself as well. Here’s a list of habits and things you should let go off by the time you reach 25. Because you might feel like a kid, but you’re not. You’re closer to 30 now than you are to 18.
1. Binge-drinking your face off at open bars and making a complete fool out of yourself.
2. Thrift shopping, because the key to adulthood is--buy little but buy good. Shopping at Sarojini Nagar is affordable, but not sustainable.
3. Your entitlement. You don’t “deserve” something unless you have truly worked for it.
4. Believing in cheat days rather than having a balanced diet all throughout the year.
5. Believing that your body is okay without any physical activity.
6. Thinking that not responding to someone is sweeter than politely rejecting.
7. Live in a bubble that everyone has “the one” assigned to them. No, sis!
8. Being proud of your attitude rather than fixing it.
9. Asking for money from your parents despite being employed. High time you became financially independent.
10. Financial independence also means it is high time you start investing and saving money for a rainy day.
11. Wanting people to react or act the way you want them to.
12. Attaching yourself to your partner so much that you both are left with a MIA friend circle.
13. Being rude to someone because you don’t like them. Suck it up, girl, life is not your parents’ home.
14. Not tipping at parlours and restaurants.
15. Living your life on your parents’ terms.
16. Thinking that your clock is ticking and you need to get married.
17. Not packing a tiffin for work. You’re not just saving money, you’re getting up early and ensuring you eat home-cooked food.
18. Comparing anything in your life to that of friends and influencers on social media.
19. There is no pride in staying up late at night, except for some occasions.
20. Thinking short-term is the biggest hindrance to your goals. Have patience.
21. If you’re making excuses, then you probably didn’t want it that bad in the first place.
22. Don’t expect people to stick around if you cannot agree to let go of your controlling behaviour.
23. Your dependency on social media, phones, television and everything you while away hours at, because it is a form of addiction at the end of the day.
24. Delaying a task. Get your work done now so that you are free later and the next day, or even the whole week.
25. Overall give up on an unhealthy lifestyle all together--eat healthy, stay fit, think good.
