I know all the correct things to do. I know that calories in must be less than calories out. I know that you need to exercise. The problem is, I do all the right things. My nutritionist had me on a diet last year, it was a low glycemic high protein diet. That didn't seem to work so well... he told me to follow south beach. I did great in the first phase but can only maintain in the second, not lose.. and the first is too hard to do long term. I tried atkins and that was the same. He then put me on 1200 calories a day, and I still maintain. Now, I've just started weight watchers 3 wks ago. I figured since this diet has been helping people lose weight for about a million years.. its worth a try.. however, I'm still maintaining weight. I do work out. I go to the gym 3 times a week, I do 40 minutes of cardio and then I do weight training. On the off days I do light cardio at home. My diet consists of lean meat, fruit, veggies, and whole grains. Any helpful suggestions??

I have been nauseous for about 10 days now. With tightness in my stomach and lower abdomen. I thought I may be pregnant, so I took a test. It came out negative. Now the mystery remains about my stomach pain. I do not throw up all of my food. Since about a year & a half ago I've had panic attacks sometimes after I eat to much. I try to keep it in, I want to keep it in, but I can't. I've tried to call my friend when I feel like I'm going to purge. He tries to help and keep my mind off of it, but it doesnt work either. I throw up as soon as I get of the phone. I do want t stop, and I thought it would help if I told someone. I do keep most of what I eat down. I usually only get sick once a day. I feel like if I went to find prof. help they would laugh and tell me about people with real problems. Anyway, can the problems I am having be caused from this. I know throwing up can cause esophageal problems, could I have damaged my stomach and intestines, or is it phsyco symatic?

I just had sex for the first time recently, and it was a wonderful experience. However, when my girl asked me to get on top of her, I was shocked by how difficult it was to maintain the missionary position. I expected it to be really easy and just be the most natural thing in the world. However, it required so much upper-body strength that I couldn't do it for more than a few moments at a time. I felt like I had to support my entire weight on my arms and the balls of my knees, while thrusting forward at an awkward angle. Plus the bed was too soft and was sinking in. It felt comparable to doing push-ups, and I can't really do all that many push ups. I was embarassed to admit to her how much it was tiring out my arms and stomach, so I asked to finish in doggy-position.

Considering the popularity of the missionary position, I have a feeling I wasn't..."doing it right". Damn, my stomach is sore, it isn't supposed to be this exhausting! Any advice?
