| Weight Loss | What is your opinion about Artificial sweetners? | Oct 12 2009 15:38 (UTC) |

I use them (light yogurt is my biggest source) but if I consume too much I get extremely cold and can't stop my hands from trembling. This tends to happen when I am at a restaurant and drink a ton of diet soda (4 or 5). This dons't happen with water so I have to think it's the diet soda. |

To be fair, Hungry Girl says on her website that she dosn't pick foods based on health, just calorie content. |

| Weight Loss | confused about how many calories to intake | Sep 14 2008 18:06 (UTC) |

First of all, your height/weight seems excellent, expecailly with the amount of muscle. I would make sure you really need to loose weight. You can't go on a BMI with an athletic build, so try to get your body fat measured. I know when I was in HS this was something gym teachers were able to do. So ask your gym teacher or coach. As a woman, you don't want to go to far under 20%. Use that to judge what to do. |

| Foods | Any ideas about low cal cocktails? | Sep 12 2008 12:32 (UTC) |

Don't always trust the "light" moicker. Light beers are not created equal. Sam Light has 125 calories and Becks Light has 64. Also, if you are not a fan of light beers, Guiness also has 125 calories. A cosmo is 150 calories. |

If it makes you feel better, us "less endowed" girls get stuck going to the little girls section sometimes :) |

If Campbells is still too salty, try Healthy Choice. After I started eating HC, Campbells seemed like a salt lick! |

| Weight Loss | Size 4's -- how large are your thighs? | Jul 16 2008 03:24 (UTC) |

I wear an AE size 4 and my thighs are 22in. I buy the boyfriend cut to give them a little more room, and they are more flattering on more athletic legs. |

Maybe try something like Beano? |

Depending on your personal tastes, you can get either Becks Light or MGD 64. Becks Light is 63 calories and MGD 64 is 64 calories. Both also have lower alcohol %. |

| The only way to get an accurate bmr is to go to a doctor. To loose weight (according to my trainer) you eat 250 under your bmr and work out 250 worth of calories. This will equal one pound loss a week. | |||
| Weight Loss | aspartame, diet soda, and crystal light | Sep 14 2007 14:14 (UTC) |

| Some people are sensitive to artifical sweeteners. I, for example, get dizzy from apartame. It's not a "I have a Diet Coke and stumble around" type of dizzy, it'll take about a week of a Diet Coke for it to start happening and then it kind of comes in as waves. I cannot be 100% sure it's the aspartame, but I do know it is corrlated to drinking alot of Diet Coke. |

| Abeckert, the only accurate way to get your BMR is professionally. Google BMR and you'll get several different BMRs depending on the formula you use. I know that occasionally they will have people come to the gym who have a thing you blow into to figure it out. May 30 2007 10:46 |

| Weight Loss | I got an A? | Jan 10 2007 22:57 (UTC) |

| Aria (http://www.ariaprotein.com/) is an easy protein supplement to take. The only places I can find it is online or at Trader Joes. It's not great tasting, but it is better than many out there. Also, you may want to try just a single multi-vitamin. That's what I do, I couldn't remember to take that many vitamins :) Your diet looks great and super healthy, keep up the good work. If you want to make an easy switch for more protien, try single-serve cottage cheese instead of yogurt. -Nicole |
