Question:

1.  Each day the average woman should consume: The correct answer: C. 1,500 calories out!

Which is exactly my point! 1.   The "average" thing. 2.  The lack of specificity on "maintenance" vs. "Diet" Thing is – about 10 yrs ago I used to like Dennis Austin.   I used to work out to her show that was on ESPN in the mornings.   IT would kick my butt. (and I was only 20 yrs old then).   I liked her.   But inthe past 10 yrs it seems that DA is jumping on every fad bandwagon out there.   It gets annoying – and then reading stuff like this just makes me realize that she will say or do anything for the almighty $$  …   She’s a total sell out.

The correct answer: C. Fiber We all know that high-fiber foods like bran and prunes help keep you regular, but they also lower your risk of heart disease and provide you with a feeling of fullness, so you don’t overeat. And they speed the progress of the food through your intestines, before all of it can be absorbed and stored as fat. ***OK – I guess I’m wrong but I thought Protein was 9cals per g.
