I've heard this old wives tale that you could have to have your tongue amputated from having it pierced and it getting infected. Has anybody heard of this happening? lol. Also, anybody had any issues with a tongue piercing?

I avoid mirrors.The only mirror I don't avoid is one I have set up with special lighting that makes me look o.k.Even then I won't look in the mirror if I have my contacts in.They have to be out because I hate the way I look.I'm so confused because a lot of people tell me I'm pretty,cute,hot,attractive,adorable...but I've had others tell me I'm ugly and not attractive.Growing up I was teased a lot for my big nose,and it was ruining me so my parents paid for a nose job.I was 15.I am now 30 and I still feel ugly.I haven't had a real relationship for 4 years and I just feel like I've wasted so much of my life hating the way I look, but I can't help it when I have to face myself in the mirror everyday. About 1 year after the nose job a guy I liked made a comment that my body was hot but he kept looking at my face and wanted to puke.That was a long time ago but it's still with me completely.How do I face my looks?I hate that I focus on it so much, but it makes me not want to go out,etc.HELP

when i was younger, i was abused by my father, and started to pick at scabs and other things, because it seemed like it was the only thing i could control, and it seemed to be a way to get back at my dad... though it was only hurting me, i didnt understand that at that point b/c i was so young. this problem has contiinued with me as i have grown up. its a way that i take care of stress and so forth... im going to therapy for my self-mutilation, but is there any way to get rid of the scars from it????

I have a big zit smack-dab in the middle of my chin. It hurts to touch and I want it to go away. It doesn't have a white-head yet, so I can't pop it. Do you know of a HOME MADE remedy that you know works from personal experience? I don't want to go out and buy anything considering it's 9:00 at night. Remember, people...HOME MADE REMEDY. Anyone got anything that really works?

I got a second hole in each of my ears and pierced the cartilage of my left ear as well a couple days ago. I got it done at Claire's and they used a gun. I had never heard anything bad about doing this until I decided to get online today to find out how long it will be sore - that's when I read quite a few comments about how bad it is to get it done with a gun. The lady that pierced my ears was older (she wasn't 16 as everyone thinks the workers are at Claire's). She has kids and she seemed to be very experienced. Anyway, I read that the gun can do some major damage to your ear - what can it do? How will I know if something is wrong with it? I got it done a couple days ago, and at the time, it didn't hurt at all, but now it is REALLY sore. At first it only hurt when I touched it or bumped it, but now it is kind of aching. Many people have told me it is completely normal, but is that true? If it is normal, how long will it hurt? I'd really appreciate some advice - thanks!

I don't have really bad acne, just a mild case. I get about 7-12 pimples at once. But nothing i do ever works!!! I have clean and clear pore cleanser, but that doesn't seem to help. I have tried scrubs, facials, steaming...but nothing works. Toothpaste dries out my skin and leaves it worse than before. I'm a picker, so if you have any advice to help me stop picking at my face, it would be appreciated! Gracias!

I thought it was from taking hot showers, so I have tried using colder water, but that doesn't seem to help much.

Since summer is here, I want to tone and shape my body. I am 5'4 weigh about 1 pounds and am a size 1. I used to be a size 0 and I want to get back to that.
I gained 8 pounds and now I don't fit into my size 0 pants. Over the summer (beginning June 5, 2007 and ending August 31, 2007)

I would like to lose 13 pounds. Is this possible within 12 weeks?
I have a pretty good body, and I know what I am going to do for my plan.

My main problem is eating healthy. But I am ready to do it. I am just interested in what you think. Will my plan work? I just want to lose the 12 pounds, make my stomach Victoria's Secret model flat, tighten my thighs, reduce my bra size, and firm my body (not so that I have bulging muscles)
