So it does have an impact? How since for example diet coke doesn't even contain calories?

Its all marketing, there's more to soda than what the labels say "zero carbs" "zero calories" BS

guys, whats the best way for a girl to get rid of love handles? i know with light weights you can do it, but i dont want to risk getting them strong ratherthan losing them. if im doing a lot of cardio (running and biking), will that help?

You can't target the fat on your love handles specifically. You just need to continue with your cardio/diet, and it will come off when the overall fat onyour body comes off.

You'll definitely cut out alot of sugar if you're a regular soda drinker, but the artificial sweeteners can have an effect on you. Some people whohave a sensitivity to phenylalinine can develop issues in their liver from taking in too much aspartame which is the sweetener in most if not all diet sodas. It's not as common as some people make it sound but it basically makes it harder for your body to process and absorb nutrients, which leads to an increasein fat storage.
Aside from that, the sweetener used in diet soda is actually alot sweeter than sugar, so you tend to crave sweets more when you drink diet soda on a regularbasis. I find that if I've been drinking alot of diet coke, I'll be at the store and instantly want to get some candy or something and I normallynever crave candy.

yeah all that is good, you just gotta make sure you are expending more calories than you consume in order to lose weight.
weights, especially light ones, are not gonna make you more muscular unless you specifically train for that goal.... a lot of girls avoid weights for thatreason but they shouldn't. they're a great way to lose weight.

Herbal ephedra (Ma Huang) is not banned anymore. The ban lifted years ago. As for me underdosing, nah....25mg ephedra and 250mg caffeine is standard. Trust me, synthetic ephedra is crap compared to the real ephedra.
Heres where to get real ephedra, like when hydroxycut used to work

For breakfast, substitute the quick oats for rolled oats and cook it on the stove (same amount of calories but rolled oats are more nutritious). Take out the protein shake, maybe add some eggs. Eggs are dense in calories due to their high fat content. Eating 3-4 whole eggs will give you more protein than a shake as well as more fat and more calories.
For your snack, eat more. Maybe add an apple, or add more nuts, whatever you feel like eating.
For meal 3, eat brown rice instead of white (same amount of calories but brown rice is more nutritious). Maybe you could eatz of chicken instead of 4oz.
For meal 4...same advice as meal 3. Brown rice and
Just by adding 3-4 eggs instead of a protein shake (+120 calories), eating maybe 100 more calories for meal 2, and doubling your chicken consumption (+400 calories), you can easily hit 2500 calories.
about breakfast though.. the thing is that i can barely finish the oatmeal and the shake. i have a weak stomach in the morning and i normally dont even eat breakfast ( i wake up at 6 30 and i wouldnt eat until like 2 sometimes)
3-4 eggs with yolk is murder...I would just use 1 yolk, all the cholesterol from 4 eggs at breakfast is wayy too much.
As for your weak stomach problem, I would gradually work your way up to eating more at breakfast. I had the same problem my first year of college so I started out with cereal, then a bit later I added some egg whites, then some toast when I was comfortable with eating that much.
There hasnt been any solid research saying how 3-4 eggs a day will have on your cholesterol levels. Previously they reduced it to 1 egg a day, but now theirnot so sure. I know people who haven eaten 10 eggs a day for about a year or so and have excellent cholesterol levels. I assume they are fairly active andhave a well balanced diet.

Exactly, food makes you big/bulky not weights. Don't be afraid to go heavy and work for sets of 10, 15, even 20 reps getting to or very close to failure. Do that for your big groups of muscle every week (legs, back, chest) do cardio consistently (at least 20 minutes at least 3 times a week) and eat right andyou'll get leaner.

1 year is a very short time for a study as well. If you eat a lot of whole eggs every single day, over time it DOES have an impact on your cholesterol level.
The whole egg "danger" is blow out of proportion, but its not something to overlook.

It all depends on your diet and cardio. Ephedra really curbs your appetite so eating shouldnt be a prob. The energy is really good too, but you'll crash atthe end of the day. Back in the day I used to stack Ripped fuel, Cell tech and Cytoplex ( a discontinued meal replacement) and didnt eat solid foods for aweek,Just the meal replacement, all that with training and what not. Thats how well ephedra will not wanna make you eat lol. That was a bad idea though, but Ilove doin lil tests to see how my body will react.
I still prefer clen though....there is a chart that ill post later comparing clen and ephedra

I usually always drink diet coke so it's not about cutting calories really.
BTW I've got diabetes and can't really be without eating carbohydrates in the evening... I just hope it won't set me back.

C'mon man you gotta use some common sense with this. 1 egg yolk contains 71% dv of cholesterol, unless you have a very active lifestyle 3-4 egg yolks willeventually clog and lead to some problems with your health. While there is nutrition in yolks having 3-4 while not being able to burn it off is just stupid.
