Answer 2

anywhere from 1,200 to 4,000 calories. Nastia liukin eats about 1,200 a day. But young growing gymnasts need more. half of your calories should come from carbohydrates and a quarter shoud be protein

Answer 3

well, im 13 in 5'6 and plays tennis everyday for hours. so i need to constantly eat kinds of meat and fish to keep healthy. For her age, i think she should eat somewhere between 2,000-2,600 calories a day. eat healthy foods. also, if you area dehydrated, make sure to drink COLD water. If you want feel full and not wanting to eat junk food, drink at least half a bottle of WARM or room temperature water. It makes you feel full. Just make sure to feel healthy. If you look all skin and bones, i would see a doctor about that. Hope this helps :)
