What determines fat loss?

1. Negative energy balance i.e burning more calories than you eat.

What helps but does not drive fat loss alone?

1. High protein intake
2. Daily activity level
3. Regular Exercise
4. Nutrition rich food
5. Sleep
6. Hydration

[Wing Commander (Dr.) Pushkal Vijay Dwivedi @pushkal_dwivedi]

Dear Maj Khushboo,
When an officer carries military credentials into the public domain to offer tactical guidance on women’s safety, the responsibility is absolute. Good intentions cannot substitute for sound operational doctrine. Recommending a .177 CO₂ Glock replica as a self-defence weapon for civilian women is not simply bad advice—it is an invitation to catastrophe.
Beyond the tactical fallacy of the tool itself, your demonstration compromised the cardinal foundations of firearms handling.

1. Disregard for the Four Cardinal Rules of Firearm Safety
In tactical instruction, there is no such distinction as "just an airgun." Muscle memory and safety discipline are immutable. Your video compromised every foundational safety doctrine:

Rule 1: Treat Every Weapon as Loaded Casual manipulation, brandishing inside a domestic space, and treating a replica loosely breeds fatal muscle memory should a civilian ever handle an actual firearm.

Rule 2: Never Point a Muzzle at Anything You Do Not Intend to Destroy The muzzle consistently swept uncontrolled arcs, including camera operators and non-target backdrops. Muzzle discipline must remain absolute at all times.

Rule 3: Keep Your Finger Off the Trigger Until Sights Are on Target Positive index-finger placement along the frame was repeatedly broken. Under sudden auditory or physical startle response, that finger contracts, causing negligent discharge.

Rule 4: Be Certain of Your Target and What Lies Beyond It Displaying and operating a projectile device in casual domestic environments ignores ricochet mechanics and non-target backstops.

2. The Operational Fallacy of a CO₂ Replica for Personal Protection
Advising a woman to reach into a handbag for a .177 air pistol during a violent encounter ignores the realities of close-quarter street violence:

Zero Terminal Ballistics: A .177 lead pellet or steel BB propelled by a 12g CO₂ cylinder produces negligible kinetic energy. It generates superficial pain, not hydraulic shock or central nervous system shutdown. Pain compliance fails against an assailant driven by adrenaline, rage, or narcotics; it merely enrages them.

Guaranteed Lethal Escalation: A replica looks identical to a Glock 17. The moment a woman draws it, she escalates a dispute to a lethal encounter. If the assailant possesses a real firearm or an edged weapon, they will use lethal force without hesitation, leaving her holding a toy against lethal steel.

Loss of Weapon Retention in the Ambush Zone: Street ambushes occur within zero to three feet. Untrained individuals cannot retain a full-sized frame in a grapple. An attacker will disarm her in seconds and use that heavy metallic frame to inflict severe blunt-force trauma on her.

Mechanical Failure Under Survival Stress: Between puncturing a CO₂ seal, slow pressure decay over weeks in a purse, and the fine-motor dexterity required to disengage safeties under acute tachycardia, the platform is prone to failure in a crisis.

Law Enforcement Engagement Threat: If a woman brandishes what appears to be a black service pistol in public, responding police or armed security units will perceive an active lethal shooter, placing the victim under direct friendly-fire threat.

3. Practical Doctrine: Legitimate EDC and Realistic Protection
Tier 1 (Non-Lethal EDC): Deploy proven stopping tools like major capsaicinoid pepper gel, high-lumen strobe flashlights, or discreet impact/edged tools instead of ineffective toy replicas.
Tier 2 (Empty-Hand Combatives): Train extensively in situational awareness, threat profiling, boundary setting, and biomechanical striking to create an immediate escape window.
Tier 3 (Lawful Lethal Defense): If a threat genuinely necessitates a firearm, secure a lawful license for a compact civilian calibre (.22 LR / .32 ACP) backed by rigorous holster-draw and retention training.

Please remember, We must equip our citizens with realistic survival doctrine, not lethal liabilities disguised as solutions.
🙏

I still CANNOT believe humans were gifted a planet full of trees, fruit, water, animals and sunshine and then they invented debt, capitalism and war.

Over-optimising everything in life has reached annoying levels. Sugar, sleep, workouts, screen time, carbs, protein, steps, calories, macros, water intake, coffee timing, caffeine cutoffs, skincare routine, posture, morning routines, productivity hacks, journaling, meditation, breath work, gut health, supplements, cold plunges, dopamine detoxes, financial engineering, side hustles, systematic investing, step counts, sleep scores, sunlight exposure, meal timing, fasting windows, habit trackers... At some point, we have got to loosen up and just live a little.

To all Women over 40, with normal BMI, stop trying to lose weight.
Try to build muscle and get stronger by eating a well balanced diet.
Post 40, dropping weight means losing muscle leading to sarcopenia and frailty.
Frailty makes you prone to falls/fractures as you age.

A young man on a bike. Midnight. Going from office to home. A route so familiar it lived in his muscle memory. Every speed breaker, every pothole etched into his subconscious. The road didn’t need thinking.

Until it vanished.

For a fraction of a second, there was weightlessness, as if zameen khisak gayi under his wheels. Then free fall. A multi-foot drop into darkness. No chance to brake. No time to understand. He likely lost consciousness instantly, or was broken so badly that even reaching for his phone was impossible. He died alone, at the bottom of a pit.

Kamal Dhyani, 26, fell into a pool sized ditch dug right in the middle of the road by the Delhi Jal Board, left open, unbarricaded. A death trap, assuming riders have night vision or divine protection.

When Kamal didn’t answer calls, his family ran from one police station to another. Hours passed. Shrugs, paperwork, indifference. His body was finally “discovered” at 8 a.m., eight hours later, by a woman.

Now comes the ritual: a “high-level inquiry.” Few suspensions. A few lakhs in compensation. Press notes. Folded hands. As if money can undo a free fall into govt apathy. And the sarkari system? It will dig again. Leave another pit. Somewhere else. Another night. Another rider.

#WATCH | Kolkata, West Bengal: Angry fans resort to vandalism at the Salt Lake Stadium in Kolkata, alleging poor management of the event.

Star footballer Lionel Messi has left the Salt Lake Stadium in Kolkata.

A fan of star footballer Lionel Messi said, "Absolutely terrible event. He came for just 10 minutes. All the leaders and ministers surrounded him. We couldn't see anything. He didn't take a single kick or a single penalty. They said they would bring Shah Rukh Khan too. They didn't bring anyone. He came for 10 minutes and left. So much money, emotions, and time wasted. We couldn't see anything..."
