I'm not overweight or really underweight,People call me skinny at times, although I'm not.... I'm a "great size" (the doctor said)...but anyway, I just want to know how many calories should I be consuming daily, as well as fats, carbohydrates, sodium, etc...I'm also on the track team so we practice very hard everyday, (if that helped)...Serious answers please? Thanks so much you all!

It depends on your level of activity, 2000+ calories since you do track.

good pastime dropping the burden. dropping the only excellent 5 lbs. is always the hardest. At 95 lbs you would have a BMR of 1270. Your Calorie desires in case you workout a million-3 days/week = BMR x a million.375. = 1270 x a million.375 = 1746 energy workout 3-5 days/week = BMR x a million.fifty 5 = 1270 x a million.fifty 5 = 1969 workout 6-7 days per week = BMR x a million.725 = 1270 x a million.725 = 2191 in case you devour fewer energy, you'll drop pounds. also, in case you only devour fewer energy you're in all probability to sense hungry virtually each and each of the time. that is why that's so significant to characteristic a lot of meals that are very low in sugar/energy. vegetables, as an celebration, sparkling fruit, entire grains, & small quantities of lean meat.

The best dieting resource I've found is www.sparkpeople.com. Even if you're not looking to lose weight, they will give you a calorie range you should aim for and lots of nutritious foods. It will also track any types of nutrients you want - calories, fat, carbs, protein, calcium, sodium, etc. It's awesome!

If your doctor says your size is great, then keep eating as many calories as you do now. And good for you on the exercise!! For excellent information on the amounts of fats, carbs, etc. you should have to be healthy, I highly recommend the book "Fit for Life".

it depends on your wieght.. Rule of thumb is multiply your weight by 10...
Example: 140 lbs (x 10) =1400 Calories.
Just make shure that they are fresh fruit, veggies, lean meats and whole grains for the maxium results nutrition wise.
It is always a good idea to limit sugars, oils, saturated fats, presertivies, and enriched ( white) bread products..and LOTS OF WATERRRR!!

women can consume between 1800 to 2200 kcals per day
1800 kcals for people who dont work out and 2200 for people who work out.
your diet should be varied... with at least 2 servings of fruit a day, vegetables and crudities as much as you want, protein wise: protein can be found in anything like ham, chicken, tuna, salmon, eggs, and also are in things like Fromage frais (which is a yoghurt) ... you should have at least 100 g (before cooking) of protein for lunch and for dinner, carbohydrate wise (pasta, potatoes, rice, bread.. and fruits).. two fruits, the equivalent of two slices of bread for lunch and one for dinner ( one slice of bread equal to 25 grmas of pasta ).... you can also eat breakfast biscuits.. they come in pack of four, and u could have two for morning snack and two for afternoon snack..
but the most important is a healthy breakfast..
cereals (like all bran fruit and fiber), a fruit, milk, and a yoghurt...
