I am 5'4, appox 126lbs. I work out 5 days a week- both cardio and resistance. I am looking to lose appox 10lbs of body fat. I am aiming at 1800 calories a day. I feel hungry, which is part of "dieting", but I don't want to cut back to much that I go into a deficiet and my body goes into starvation mode and I lose energy , ect. Does anyone have a guide or recommendations to caloric intake?

Especially when I breastfeed my baby in lying position, my entire arm becomes numb and painful. I'm also having difficulty moving my thumb. Occasionally my middle and ring finger gets numb (pin and needle sensation) even when Im not carrying her.
Am I having the carpal tunnel syndrome?
What can I do? Im the only caretaker of my baby. Aside from my husband but he works.

I had a very low BMI calculated recently...and I have to put on quite a bit of weight to get it back to normal. My cup size was an A before and in the time span of about 5 weeks, it's grown to a C cup. I've gained about 4 kgs so far, will they keep growing? I still have another 6 kgs to go..just wanted to make sure this is normal.

What supplements would you reccomend for someone looking for lean muscle mass, no beefy?

Like Swimmer Build, lean muscle, not body builder beef. Slender, lean muscle, six pack, yadda yadda. I'm at the gym 3-4 times a week.

Sparatic Thinking..(Feel free to add delete or correct)

Whey Protein? If I only took it day of workout for recover.
Creatine? I think this would be for more of those who were going for the beefy look. Since it retains water, making you look larger..Opposite of what I want, right?


I live in Orlando, Fl. (As if that adds any insight to the question)

Thanks For the Help!

A person in my family suffered a coma after falling down concrete stairs, she has been in it for about 5 days now and is only expected to be in it for a total of 10 days. She was placed into it to have her brain stop swelling. The doctors say she is out of the critical time and she is doing better then before. But when she gets out of it what are the risks? Will she suffer permanet brain damage or what. Please explain...thank you for all who answer.

Ok so this is a weird question, but I'm kind of wondering why my wrist has a mark on it, it's right on my wrist where people would typically cut themselves I guess and right now it looks like a scar that healed (a pretty big scar) that healed and it's just sticking up on my skin. I guess I don't know how to explain this very well but it just literally appeared out of no where tonight and it itches now a little. Maybe it appeared after I scratched it I guess, but it doesn't look like the normal mark after irritation. I know it's weird but if anyone might know what I'm talking about of if it's no big deal please let me know....thanks everyone.
