500 calorie deficit is based on a lot of assumption, your body weight, how active you are etc. you are expected to eat 250 calorie less and burn 250 calories so as to get a 500 calorie deficit. Again these are all not accurate. if you eat healthy and exercise regularly, making it more of a life style change you will definitely see a difference

The best way to use Turmeric is it add to your food, saute vegetables, soups or stews..

Exercise and diet generally helps in controlling Blood pressure, i have seen that Yoga really helps too, especially Pranayama, obviously you have to avoid head stands and holding poses for too long in the beginning. there are numerous resources on yoga available, if you are interested let me know. All the best!

if you are running early in the morning, never run empty stomach and never on a coffee/tea stomach. Eat a fruit and post workout smoothie/cereal/brunch. what you eat before and after workout has a direct impact on your stamina. Have fun running!

hi! Maizie.. Upper body strength training won't make you big, it will give you lean muscles. there are plenty of exercises available online on upper body with or without weights, you can use stretchable bands, kettle bell or just dumbbells, of course you have to watch what you eat! there isn't anything like spot reduction.

you don't have to be in pain when you are doing leg exercises. you can try using elastic bands and exercise with it and may be listen to your favorite music?

Have you tried showing it to a podiatrist? Just to be on the safer side..

i know its heart breaking to stop something that you love so much! you can start again, please do look for videos on how to run, and stretching is an absolute must. sit with your spine comfortably erect and point your toes and pretend to write (maybe just A to Z), that will stretch your shin, you can either do with both the feet the same time or one at a time. Get well soon!

Once you have a go ahead from your doctor, take it slow and build up the pace. All the best
