I am going back to school (I'll be a highschool junior) in a week. I gained about 25 pounds over the summer, and I need to get back to where I was (or at least close) by Aug. 30. I am not interested in weight loss pills or eating disorders. I want tips for dieting and staying fit. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

i don't want to keep taking the laxatives but i still keep doing it. today, i took 6 and yesterday i took 6 as well. i lose 4-5 pounds every other day on the average. sometimes it gains back--hence why i still keep taking more. i'm feeling awful--shaky, nauseated and crampy. does anyone know what the actual side effects of taking laxatives really are?

I work in a job where I stand in an office all day...yes, standing in office work. I get to sit, but a majority of my time is just standing, and it's killing my feet.
Does anyone know of anything to soothe sore feet? I am about to ditch the heels! So, is there some kind of herbal remedy or something that can help them? They hurt so much it feels like the bones are bruised...!!!!!! I hate it! I have a foot soaker, but I wondered if there was something I could put in it to help my feet to feel somewhat better. Any amount of relief without taking pain medication would be wonderful....and I probably should invest in some gel soles for my shoes.

For those of you that this question could apply to....when did you start to feel your age? I am nearing thirty, and I think it's catching up to me. I am in no way saying thirty is old, but ......it's not 18!

I went to a concert yesterday and it was amazing, in case you wanted to know. XD 10 bands for 10 bucks. Only problem is I can hear a faint whining noise in the background and everything is a little muffled. I know this is to be expected because it was a six hour concert and I was in the front row. But what should I do? It has me worried.

I'm21yrs old, and I haven't been to the dentist in over 5 years. I am petrified of going, and besides having a normal fear of the dentist, I have MajorDepression, Borderline Personality D/O,and Gen.AnxietyD/O. I'm on 5 RXs 4 them, 1 of them being Xanax for anxiety. I could take 1 before going to the dentist,but I really don't want to be awake AT ALL.What determines if a patient needs actual dental surgery, a root canal or a regular extraction?

About a month and a half ago my father became very ill and has been in the hospital since. I am Bipolar and have a bad back. I am on psych meds and vicodin for the pain. Last week I became very ill and ended up in the same hospital as my father. While i was there my mother told my daughter to find all of my pain meds. They ransacked my room for them. I had a psych med change and went on a manic high for about 2 weeks of destructive behavior that left me forgetful and in the hosptial icu for pnuemonia everyone said that i went there to get attention because my father has been so ill that i am lacking attention. I feel violated and so upset with my family that i am at my wits end. I pay all the house bills and am going to be a grandmother in 3 months but am divorced and finding myself lonely as i only had 2 visitors in the hospital the whole time i was there and my family have left me angry and depressed. I feel as if i am cracking up can anyone help me out. I just wanna end it

Do you think that if you worked really hard for something, do you believe you could surpass a genius at it? If you wanted to be a gymnast, would you be able to work really hard at it and be able to jump great heights and do amazing acrobatic moves? Or do you believe that everybody has their own "specialty" and is limited to certain others. (And I ask this in the diet & fitness section mainly because I ask about being a great athlete and gymnast)

Anyone have suggestions on what I can ask about? I want to continue taking some form of pill, no depo shots or anything like that.
