| Weight Loss | What is the ideal size for a woman? | Feb 24 2009 10:50 (UTC) |

you are going to get a lot of replies to this thread that there is no 'ideal' size. listen to them all because they are all right. what does ideal even mean? ideal to who? A size 8 on a 5'5" frame is much different than a 5'9". What even is a size 8- each store is different. strive to find your own ideal body size- in a healthy way- that you feel comfortable in, that you have energy and confidence, that both you and your doctor agree upon is a good weight for you to maintain for your health. don't be concerned about any other ideal than those.
and put down those trashy 'womens' magazines. they have done you a disservice by putting that 'ideal' notion into your mind |

| Vegetarian | Vegan sources of calcium? | Dec 09 2008 10:28 (UTC) |

I know you may be vitamin-wary, but my doctor told me to take a few Tums [or related brands] a day. Those are filled with calcium. |

| Foods | What's your favorite Clif Bar? | Dec 01 2008 10:47 (UTC) |

I will second {or third, or fourth?} in favor of the carot cake. It is a flavor that at first you think will be funky, but it really is good. The maple nut is good too. |

| Weight Loss | what happens if you're under 1200 calories a day (even under 1,000 a day), but are getting LOTS of nutrition? | Nov 19 2008 10:50 (UTC) |

also, may I say that while the food you are eating is nutritious, that does not mean that your body is getting all of what it needs or enough of what it needs. The nutrition grade is an average of all the grades for individual foods, taking into account the weight in grams of each food. therefore, as a clif bar is and 'A' and so is broccoli... you can eat only clif bars all day or only broccoli all day and still receive and A score. That is clearly not a great way to eat... not balanced at all.
