I am 14, 5'8" and a half, 142 pounds. I eat whatever I want pizza, soda whatever will fill me up, and hanging out with my friends I will eat a lot of junk food. I want to take a healthier approach though, would foods will help me out in this age? Maximize height growth, health, mental health, whatever just basically healthy. I am ready to eat anything that will help me.

i am straight, love women and their bodies, and love sex with them as well...

i have also been addicted to porn since i was young (now 23). when i see men randomly who look like male porn stars. like the ones i see in the movies...(muscular, sleazy...especially the ones who look like they have a lot of sex) i get aroused, but then want to go home and screw by girlfriend. i have never wanted to jump on them and "do" them...

can anyone relate or give an explanation?

doews anyone think its becuase i watched porn at a young age and related to the men somehow, and it has affected me today?

also...when i see a hot woman i dont get instantly aroused...when i think about having sesx with her or even toucing her, then i get very aroused and get an erection...

also...i get anxietly around other men...maybe this anxiety can cause me to get aroused?

my husband told me taking like xanax and being in the sun will make me sick and overheated. I don,t think its true do you? I took xanax and been in the hot sun didn,t make me sick. The reason is we are going to disneyland and being in the heat all day.And i need tranquilizer there.i get nervous!

I am 20 years old and I've been losing hair for the last 3 years or so, though at the time everyone said it was normal to lose hair. However, I am losing a lot of hair every day. Today, my mom remarked that I have less than half the volume of hair I had three years ago... I can't even use tiny ponytail holders without twisting them twice around my hair. I seem to shed hair all the time (in the car, sitting down, in the wind, etc)... I don't ever put my hair up because I'm afraid of pulling hair out. Is there something I can eat (am I missing vitamins in my diet) or shampoos or treaments I can use??
The only cause I can think of is that I used to nanny little kids a few years ago, and they would "brush" my hair and I lost a lot of hair during those months.. would it have caused permanent damage that would continue me to lose my hair? And is there anything I can do?

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)

I'm busy and most of the time I don't feel like leaving home to workout. My mom owns a hotel, and we have 4 stories , so naturally 4 flights of steps. I want to run up and down the staircase constantly with 15 pounds. After that jump in the pool to cool off and swim for a half an hour to an hour. So is this stupid or can I pull it off and keep up my good shape?

I've lost 24 lbs in 1 month without any exercise or specific diet. All I did was quit drinking my soda and started taking herbal weight loss pills (lipofemme). Is it possible that the combo caused this?

At first I thought it was water weight, but my scale reads my body fat percentage is lower.

I feel fine, but am slightly concerned at the drastic drop in pounds. I was 160, so it's not that I couldn't afford to lose weight...but is this much weight loss in 1 month normal?

I know I do because my family constantly hurts me, & I have no one else to turn to for support but Yahoo! Answers, although there are some immature, ignorant jerks on here.

& I don't want to feel alone. I feel like the only person who does this, but I do see others ask family questions about a family argument. I don't like when people give such rude answers, such as, "STOP YOUR WHINING & GO GET A JOB!"

Getting a job is not that easy for me. I've been struggling for years, trying to find a decent job.
