Q: 13/f. I recently asked a question concering weight loss sites. Now I am asking for help again. I want to lose 10 pounds by the end of the month. I am currently 5'0 and weigh 130 pounds. I play field hockey 5 days a week for 1 1/2-2 hours. I also cheerlead for 3-4 days a week for two hours. With that being said about how many calories should I take in a day?
My hunch is that you probably drink a lot of sports drinks at games and practice, many of which are just LOADED with sugar. Switch to water or low-cal low-sugar drinks. Also, for me, when I first started working out I thought that entitled me to eat whatever I felt like. Not True! Make sure you have lots of vegetables, proteins (like chicken or fish) and no cookies or chips. Try not to look at it like a crash diet but a change in your life that you can keep forever. Good luck and keep me posted!

no i drink water and i do eat many proteins and veggies
