To maintain my weight i eat aroun 1600 calories a day. As long as i dont go over this amount is that okay no matter where it comes from. or should be looking more in depth at protein, carbs, and fat. I do this already but could it affect my weight more than i think like if i still eat 1600 cals but one day it comes more from fat would i be more likely to put on weight???

In 2 weeks, myself & my wife who is breastfeeding our 6 month old son are all going on vacation to Floridia with some friends; one friends currently has a abcess - staph infection. She is on antibiotics (started 4 days ago). Will my friend still be contagious? Is it safe for my wife and 6th month old son to go on the trip with someone who is being treated for a staph infection? What precautions should we take if we do go?
Please give a detailed answer.

My husband is having heart trouble and was told he is high risk for a stroke. He was told he must quit smoking. He has tried many times before and failed. I want to be supportive, but I know this has to stop. So I took his cigs away and he as to ask permission (which was his idea). But when he wants one I make him recite "I don't care about my health. I dont' care about my daughter's health. I don't care about my family or the future of my family" ( my idea) is this the wrong approach or tough love?

What are your sure fire tips for cheeting yourself up quickly? I had to attend a funeral this morning and I am now feeling quite sad. Not that there is anything wrong with grieving but I am at work at the moment and I have to go for an important job interview after work in a few hours time so I need a temporary cheer up technique to get me through the afternoon. What are your tips because all I can come up with is chocolate!.

This ALWAYS happens to me. So I figure I'll stay up and get some stuff done, what's the point of laying in bed tossing and turning, right? But then I finally get sleepy around 6 or 7 in the morning and NOTHING can reason with me to stay up to do whatever I need to do in the morning. A hurricane could be blowing my house down, and I would be so tired that all I would care about would be catching some ZZZs. I've been like this for years. I've got an Ambien prescription (sleep aid), but I'm trying not to depend on it.

Maybe one of you could give me some pleasant, relaxing thoughts to ponder or sing me a li'l lullaby? LOL

I have to go to school early in the morning at 8am and i have trouble staying up in class. First i thought it was because i didnt get enough sleep but even the days i get 8-9 hours of sleep im still extremely drowsy in class. During summer i slept about 11-12 hrs a day which kept me pretty fresh but still tired. What can be the cause?? thanks
