Nutrition FAQs: 1. a. I am a boy/girl of a certain age who is a certain height and weight. Am I normal/overweight/underweight?

b. What's the average height of all __ year old boys/girls?

c. What's the average weight of all __ year old boys/girls?

Answer: Click on http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_is_a_normal_weight_for_a_child_of_a_certain_height_and_age for the answers.

2. Am I overweight? What is my BMI? Answer: Use a BMI calculator to get a rough estimate. Remember that BMI is a rough indicator that doesn't take into account muscle mass. (by a BMI measurement alone, a 235 pound Arnold Swartzenegger would be considered dangerously obese): http://www.nhlbisupport.com/bmi/ 3. How many calories do I need in a day? Answer: This assumes you want to maintain your current weight. Use one of the calculators below: For women:

http://www.netrition.com/rdi_page.html 5. How many calories and other nutrients are in a certain food? Answer : Try http://www.nutritiondata.com/ for nearly every generic food. If it's a very specialized food (such as a sandwich by a certain fast food chain) you should head to the company's website for their nutritional data. 6. How can I make my breasts/butt larger? Will pills make them larger? Answer: The only pill that would increase breast size would be an estrogen-based Birth Control pill. Pectoral exercises won't increase the size of the breasts themselves. Implants would be the only certain option. You could increase butt size by increasing total body fat (not recommended) or by doing excercises targeting the gluteus maximus. Also, you could consider implants. 7.How can I convert one unit of measurement into another?

Answer: Google has a very handy unit converter. Typing "1 cup in liters" or "3 pounds in kg" will yield a very quick conversion. 8. How can I lose weight?

Answer: Consistently expend more calories than you consume through a lifestyle of regular physical activity and a healthy diet! For in-depth information, see the Diet and Weight Loss, Carbohydrates and Low Carb Diets, Fitness, Exercise, and Nutrition categories here at Wikianswers. ----
