My boyfriend is constantly complaining about how fat he is but refuses to believe me when I tell him that inhaling his food (and huge huge portions) is unhealthy and a contributor to his fat gut. He works out at the gym 5 days/week lifting weights & uses our eliptical 6 days/week for about an hour each time. He limits white flour, carbs, sugar (close to none), and eats small amounts of food 7 to 8 times a day during the work week. But on the weekends he eats huge amounts of food and inhales it like a starving dog. He even eats off of a serving platter and uses a giant salad fork! Its soo terrible that he just hoovers over the plate and shovels food in until its gone. I think that it's very conterproductive to his weight loss but he says I'm wrong and that I have a phobia of food. To make matters worse his 7yr old son's learning to eat the same way and sometimes even gags from trying to scarf his food down too fast. Any sources for info would be great! Thanks

I am 20 years old and in college and I'm not eating as well as I used to and I realized I haven't really eaten anything other than chicken and hamburgers and pizza, etc - in other words, no vegatables or anything - in 3 or 4 months and I'm beginning to think that it is having an effect on me, especially now that I don't have a terrible amount of money to spend on food anymore... I'm not really worried about starving, but I was wondering if I should like get some flintstones vitamins or something like that so I don't keel over and die from scurvy...

I mean, with science today, is taking vitamins an acceptable alternative to actually eating healthy? If each day I get 100% of my daily nutrient crap does it really matter if I didn't actually eat my peas and carrots?

there are many symptoms, if you experience only ONE, is it still TIA? I experienced a very short period of confusion and inability to understand language. No numbness, no dizziness, nothing else, and I had been under extreme emotional distress for 2 days. Should I be slightly concerned or pretty concerned?

I started a new vitamin regemin today, and I think it is making me feel ill. I took one Centrum One A Day Weight Smart vitamin and one Omega 3 Fish Oil capsul. I have taken the weight smart vitamins before with no problem, but for some reason, I'm starting to feel a little dizzy and nausous. Could it be the Omega 3 pill? If so, will these symtoms continue, or do I need to stop taking them?

I know it causes high blood pressure and all. I am really just wondering what it does in terms of weight gain and for someone that is trying to lessen their body fat percentage. And also, how quickly does your body lose sodium if you are running or doing some other exercise activity?

My children were exposed to head lice around 4th of July and i have been checking them aleast 2 times a day since I found out. Well any when checking my daughter last night I found lice eggs. So I ran to wal-Mart and bought bedding spray,and a product called licefreee! a homepathic Pediculicid it is pharmacist recommend kills lice and the eggs and most important is free from potentially harmful pesticides and is safe for repeated applications.(Non-toxic). I am washing everything in hot water and drying it at a hot temp. also I sprayed everything with the bedding spray. I'm sure that I've done a very good job and I also made sure my children didn't have anymore eggs/nits or bugs i comb it w/a nit comb throughly. I'm just needing serious suggestion on any home remedies that you might of heard that worked or tried yourself in case they ever return. also if you have any suggestions on how/or what to use to keep from getting them. Thanks alot ahead of time. This is very frustrating
