Diet & Fitness - 25 November 2007

I am thinking of changing my diet, due to weight problems, and am wondering about venison as a substitute for beef. Isn't it much leaner? Also, is all the hype about red meat being bad just because of the fat content (if not what is a good/good-tasting source of protien)?

I love to walk but I am not use to the treadmill or stationary bike...A few weight machines and this other machine you put your feet into these holders ...it looks like you can go skiing.... I really don't know how to work them....They are the only options I have right now.

Forbes created a list of the most obese cities in the nation with Memphis, Tenn. being number 1. Do you think this so called obesity epidemic ( as if its similar to smallpox and tuberculosis) is over exaggerated? They came up with the list based on surverys of peoples weight and height and came up with a BMI number for each individual. I think this tool is useless in determining how healthy a person is. I believe there is more to a person's weight than the number on the scale. Last, I think that health problems are caused by not eating a healthy diet and not getting enough exercise versus it being weight.

My friend and I are doing a no dessert/candy fast for basketball season (we do have occasional cheat days, like Christmas Day, etc). Everyday I find myself constantly craving sweets (especially chocolate) that I can't have. Fruit doesn't totally satisfy me. What can I do?

I'm 19 and im 5'11 around 180 and i want to work out, and lose some of my fat off and gain some muscle... here's my problem i love to work out at night on the weekdays, but i go to college and all my classes are in the evening so i cant work out at night (Mon. & Wed 3-7:20 , Tue & Thurs 5 - 9). But when i was in highschool it was great bc i used to go to class in the morning and come home at 3 and then at 7 go for a run out side, so it all worked out. Recently my family & I cancelled our gym membership bc we were low on money. I have wieghts and i can run outside. But every morning i wake up i want to go excercise but im too tired to do it so i dont. the worst part is i dont even have a job so i have no excuse not to work out and get back in to shape. can anyone help me or give me advice???

Whoo, this is gonna be a long one..
ok, for some people, obesity is a big problem, so they advertise weight loss programs and supplements on television and stuff, right? Well, they need to advertise weight gain programs too.
Im an African American female, and most people's steryotypes of black females are either overweight or "bootylicious.", well, im actually underweight (and constantly losing weight) because im 15 years old, and i weigh 104 pounds (im 5'5" in height). This is not a new thing, though, because the main cause of this is when i was about 7 years old, i became a very picky eater. I only wanted to eat things like rice and hamburgers, and i never wanted to eat "southern foods' like collard greens, fried chicken, etc. Basically all that tasteless nasty stuff (and to this day it still disgusts me)well, my family would only cook these "southern foods" and when i would tell them im hungry, they'd say to eat what they already had, but when i said i didn't want to eat it, they would just say "well...." and walk away. What most people don't understand is that you can't force me to eat something i don't want or those same reflexes that keep you from eating something rotten, will make me throw the food back up.
In some cases, i've tried to eat, but i've only gained like, one pound from this time last year!
Maybe my metabolism is fast,
but I need help: this is starting to ruin my life!!. I feel like my mom doesn't want me anymore because of my weird eating habits, im starting to feel extreme dislike (i dont wanna say "hate") for other family members because they wont help me and/or eat regularly, and im even starting to hate black people in general, because they are up to their normal "weight", and are starting to make me uncomfortable by making it obvious that they think im awkward because of my size (and i've got these long *** legs to top it all off!). And plus guys don't like girls my size.
Can someone help me? this is starting to ruin my life- and will probably eventually lead to suicide!!! :(

I'm a18 year old female, and I'm currently "overweight".
I'm joining the Army in February of 2008, but I have to lose about 40 lbs to be able to go to Basic.
I have been excercising like a maniac for the past week and I have been eating EXTREMELY healthy.

My question to you is:
Is ONE Oatmeal pie cookie going to "RUIN" my diet? Will I really have to run about 5 miles for it to come off?
Or is it OK to have a treat ever other weekend?

Thanks for your answers :)
