what are the best foods to eat before playing a two hour sport? 10pts?

i'd prefer to not just carb myself up....i have soccer twice a day and each practice is two hours long. what are some healthy foods that will give me some extra energy? (like, what's a good combo of foods with good carbs and other foods full of vitamins?)

i cant buy power bars or anything so it needs to be food..

I weigh roughly 200 pounds, if I cut my calorie intake to 1600 and burn 250+ a day – Will it be effective?

I am 5'10 and weigh 200 pounds. Right now it isn't convenient for me to go to the store whenever I feel like it. I also don't have the money to buy a lot of healthy foods that I can eat for 6 meals a day like a lot of people recommend. Right now I survive on frozen dinners, ramen noodles, cereal, and a lemonade made from a drink mix. I am going to start taking vitamin supplements to get the vitamins and minerals I don't get from everything else. My question is, will this severely slow my metabolism down to a point where my body thinks that it is starving if I continue on this diet? I have started running daily and am currently burning around 250+ calories a day, but with time I will try to increase that amount as I build stamina. Is this an effective way to lose weight?

vitamins in tablet form?

here is the problem, i have suddenly become aware how important vitamins are to our bodies, i used to take spectrum multi-vitamins, but have recently heard that multi-vitamins do not help, because they dont contain what you need. im an 18 year old and realisticly i dont have the time to eat healthy foods, so buying the right vitamins is crucial, i was just wondering if anyone has any advice on what different kinds vitamins i should get

i also heard omega-3 vitamins are crucial to boosting the motabulism? is this true? and what vitamins boost the motabulism?

THANKS!

Is it okay to take around 15 vitamins a day, being a teen?

I'm 15, almost 16. I am taking vitamins, since my daily nutrients aren't really getting met through healthy foods, and also it might help my complexion. I'm not taking any Vitamin A, as I already get enough of that. I'm taking the daily amount of: Vitamin C, B, D, fish oil, Enzyme, etc..Is this okay?

fasting tips? i’ll pick a best answer :]?

'm planning on starting a fast in the morning to give myself a kickstart on my new lifestyle change.
What would be a good way to go about fasting? Juice fast, or water fast? Should I take supplements/vitamins, and if so, what kind?

It's not really to lose weight. (my bmi is 18) I'm just not eating very healthily (tons of carbs and fats). After the fast, I'm going to incorporate healthy foods into my diet.
Advice is very appreciated.

Can you give me the facts please (WEIGHT LOSS)?

I've tried everything for weight loss lately ranging from 1200-2200 calories a day/minimal working out-2 hrs running a day and can't seem to lose weight. The only way I lost it before was:

1000 calories a day (of healthy foods+a vitamin like always)
and STILL working out to keep up my metabolism
but only for 2 weeks.

I lost about 6 lbs before. Is this ok? Can I go for a month like this?

Thnx.

What Natural Vitamins & Minerals are people w/ ADD or ADHD Often Lacking?

I'm a 20-year-old w/ pretty severe AD-HD. I was in several accidents as a teen from inability to focus, until my dad allowed me to go on Adderall. Since I haven't been in one accident since I was 17.

I am on a pretty high dose of adderall now & have come to feel that a lot of my focusing troubles, which have been visible since childhood, have to do w/ a poor diet, lack of exercise and such.

I am trying to adopt a healthier lifestyle and I've begun taking Folic Acid, Magnesium, Vitamin B-6, Vitamin C, & Fish Oil every day, but are there any other vitamins or minerals that would be good to add? Ones that will help in Focusing.

I've also been eating all organic, lean healthy foods & exercising 4 - 5 days a week. I used to exercise before a bit too much, but not with a good diet. I also haven't had a soda in 4 months! :) I feel much better & actually feel terrible when I put junky unhealthy food in my body.

Also I haven't, but am planning on taking up meditation to develop focus.

I was wondering, as well, if there were any other techniques that would help develop focus.

Ideally I'd like to get off my adderall & have my own developed focus, or at LEAST get down from taking 50mgs of extended release each day.
