Daily Goals
👟 5000 steps minimum
💧 1.5 litres (50.72 ounces) minimum
📖 10 minutes reading the Qur'an minimum
👟 Daily Steps Info:
Low active: 5,000–7,499 steps/day
Somewhat active: 7,500–9,999 steps/day
Active: >10,000 steps/day
Highly active: >12,500 steps/day
The average U.S. adult takes 3,000 to 4,000 steps per day. However, the more steps you take, the more health benefits you receive. For example, one study found that increasing your step count by 1,000 steps per day reduces the risk of dying from any cause by 15%
💧 Daily Water Considerations (according to Mayo Clinic):
You might need to modify your total fluid intake based on several factors:
Exercise. If you do any activity that makes you sweat, you need to drink extra water to cover the fluid loss. It's important to drink water before, during and after a workout.
Environment. Hot or humid weather can make you sweat and requires additional fluid. Dehydration also can occur at high altitudes.
Overall health. Your body loses fluids when you have a fever, vomiting or diarrhea. Drink more water or follow a doctor's recommendation to drink oral rehydration solutions. Other conditions that might require increased fluid intake include bladder infections and urinary tract stones.
Pregnancy and breast-feeding. If you are pregnant or breast-feeding, you may need additional fluids to stay hydrated.
Diet Focus for the Week: Calorie Counting!
This week, focus on building awareness of your daily calorie intake to better understand your eating habits and support your health goals. Counting calories isn’t about restriction—it’s about knowing what your body needs and learning to balance energy in and out.
Start by calculating your daily calorie requirement based on your activity level and goals, whether it’s maintaining, losing, or gaining weight. Use a calorie-tracking app or a simple journal to record everything you eat and drink, including portion sizes. Be sure to include snacks and beverages—they can add up quickly!
Make it easier by preparing meals in advance and measuring portions using a food scale or measuring cups. Focus on nutrient-dense foods like lean proteins, whole grains, fruits, and vegetables to get the most out of your calories. Don't forget to leave room for treats in moderation—it’s about balance, not perfection.
By the end of the week, you’ll have a clearer picture of your eating habits and feel more in control of your diet. Counting calories is a valuable tool for making mindful choices and aligning your eating habits with your goals, inshaAllah!
