Can I Lose 12 Pounds In 1 Month?
Q. Is it possible for me to lose 12 pounds in one month eating 1200 calories a day and doing aerobics and weight training for two hours a day?

A. It may be possible but it's NOT recommended! First off, 2 hour workouts will cause your body to be extremely overtrained! With extreme states of overtraining, the body may actually start breaking down muscle tissue and there is a very high possibility that you will get sick since your body is always trying to recover from training and its much more susceptible to flu since its immune system is in a weak state.

Celebrity Diet & Workout Secrets - Jessica Alba
One source reports Jessica Alba has been on a diet since the age of 12. Jessica said, "Everyone in my family is heavily overweight. I wanted to be healthier, so I started cooking for myself when I was 12 years old. When I eat breakfast, I’ll have an egg-white omelet and fruit, or cottage cheese and a peach. For lunch, I’ll have a salad. Dinner is usually vegetables and chicken or fish. During the day I’ll have some dried fruit, or I’ll have a chocolate or strawberry frozen yogurt. I don’t really eat desserts or bread."

Can You Recommend a Daily Menu For Me?
Q. Can you recommend a daily menu for me, considering I don't eat any veggies or fruits. I know that's not good for me, but I cant stand fruits and veggies at all! What should I eat?

A. I would recommend a general "clean" diet to adhere to. I would focus on lean protein sources (chicken breast, turkey breast, egg whites) and nonwhite starchy carbs such as brown rice, whole wheat pasta and boiled red potatoes. If you can eat these starchy carbs and keep your body fat down, then enjoy them! A quick daily menu could consist of ...

Best Exercises To Reduce Breast Size?
Q. I am naturally very large chested (my siblings and mother are also). I would like to know the best exercises to make my chest smaller as I have tried many exercises and only ended up making my chest larger which makes it seem very unnatural. I'm very self conscious and worry as I have 4 daughters of my own who will have this problem.

A. Since breast tissue is composed of mainly adipose tissue (fat), you will want to follow a plan to reduce your overall body fat levels. When you lose body fat, it will come off from all over your body including your breast tissue. Many women actually see most of the initial fat reduction in the ...
