Aspartame question
I've just bought myself a new soda stream and I'm enjoying it so much that I can see myself drinking some all day. Which on the one hand I want to think is good because upped water consumption can lead to weight loss. But is it actually going to be detrimental if I drink the diet flavors all day? Or the lemonade (35 cal…

Resetting Chocolate/sugar relationship
So I'm playing around with the idea of going off chocolate and sugary desserts for a few weeks to try and break my cravings for it.

Has anyone had personal experience with the relationship between drinking water and losing weight? Like, do you lose more weight if you restrict your calories to, say 1500 AND you drink 8 glasses of water than if you have 1500 calories and 3 glasses of water? How does that work? I know that you're supposed to drink water…

Interval Run/Walking Calories?
I jogged for a minute (REALLY slowly, maybe a 12 min mile), walked for a minute, for a total of about 20 minutes. I calculated the calories by adding 10 minutes of 12 min/mile (153 cal) + 10 minutes of walking (60 cal). Is that an accurate way to estimate how much I burned?

Calories per workout?
So I'm looking at balance beam/ball exercises so I can do a versatile workout in my living room. One website estimated "A person weighing 125 pounds can expect to burn about 150 calories -- and 300 in an hour -- while a person weighing 185 pounds can expect to burn about 222 -- 444 in an hour." Is that a good workout?
