So lift metabolizes nutrients into lifelight right?

This poses issues as to how much she can store, or obtain at any point, so If she got say, a full unsealed bendalloy metalmind, would she be able to tap it for energy, and then metabolize those calories into lifelight? or would the calories have to be inside her digestive system?

Common belief is Yes, this should be a viable (if unique) hack between the metallic arts and Lifelight. Exact interaction is being RAFO'd for the most part.   The calories dont have to be in her belly as in fresh, they can be normal fat stores (Wyndle even comments that she needs to carry more body fat for her health).  As we've seen they can be tapped pretty quickly after eating, so her digestion may not be 100% natural chemistry.  

As far as the sequence of it, my understanding is that she'd be able to move Nutrition into and out of the UnSealed metalmind, which would restore her caloric stores as blood sugar & fat, etc. however it normally would (some with more medical and/or Organic Chem knowledge may be able to elaborate on this stage).  I assume but couldnt prove that you can store years worth in metalminds, and tapping would increase body mass as needed just like tapping F-pewter does. In that case she could then convert those stores to her Lifelight Awesome in a one-way direction.  Getting the Lifelight energy Back into metal would require some other route, probably nicrosil or a Gold feruchemist, for example, because she cannot convert Light back into calories.

Lift can do Regrowth and Wayne can Heal. If Lift puts Regrowth on Wayne, can he store it?

Can he store it? That's a RAFO. But you are thinking along very appropriate lines of theory.
