I am an emotional eater who has 2 basic levels, either can stay away from food completely, or binge. I have found fasting for a few days a week has really helped me gain control of myself, and then can eat healthy for several days afterward, but then bad cycle begins again, so I've started fasting weekly to keep the control. but am wondering howmany days can you do it safely.My deductible on health insurance is too high to try to see dr to ask. My stats are female age 41, weight 340 lbs, have lost 25 in past 3 months. no known health problems yet(the blood pressure cuff at walmart I check all the time and I am in the good range, amazing for someone at my weight). For physical activity I have a office job so I sit alot, but do regular housekeeping stuff and take care of family, don't sit on butt and watch tv all night. Do yard work on weekends and have a 2nd job 1 day a week that is driving. Walk about 3 times a week for a mile but not on days I am fasting.

I do! I mean your not going to use them after you are dead! And it could save a life, and in theory part of you would live on! Also it is selfish I think to be buried with so many organs, that could save someone else’s life don't you?

How much harm will it do to my body if I only eat one time a day? The time I eat is at dinner and I have been doing this for a few years. This has become normal for me and I dont even get hungry tell dinner time. Many say that I should eat 3 times a day and it will hurt you, but I need to hear from everybody else out there. Please dont give me any stupid answers. I realy want to know.

I have smoked for the past 15 years (no I know its not clever or cool) BUT am now well and truly addicted.

I do not smoke in the house, in the car or around my children.

My husband wants me to give up but I would rather wait 3 weeks and then give up as at the moment I am looking for a new job, running the office on my own (boss on holiday) moving house this friday, about to say goodbye to husband who is due to go back to iraq tuesday next week and my eldest is starting school in two weeks.

I would like to get all of the above out the way before attempting to kick the evil habit - am I being unreasonable?
And any tips for quitting would be great!

I have had sex before, but never liked it. I thought it was gross. I don't know why. And then when I fell in love with someone I wanted to wait, but then he didn't believe I loved him because I have had sex before. I don't know why I did this. I now am single and celibate. I also think sex is gross and feels nasty. It's so wet and gross. It never made me feel closer to anyone in a relationship. I don't know if any of this stems from sexual abuse in my childhood and my mom bringing guys home a lot.... but I don't think I should see a psychiatrist. I've already done that when I was younger and nothing came of it. Maybe it's just that I was too fast at first and now.. I'm just waiting. Is it normal to think sex is gross? Or do I feel this way due to having (essentially) meaningless sex.. as in I wasn't truly in love? Or from childhood rape? Or from a messed up childhood to begin with. And why can't some people forgive your past? If it's not who you are anymore?

It is so frustrating because I go from no exercise to exercising and feel like I have gained. I started doing 60 minutes cardio, but they said that wasn't good, so I went down to 45 minute cardio workout and then lift, lighter weights, more reps. I have seen no results! I am tired all the time. What is going on?!?!

my husband was injured 3 weeks ago and both of his hands have been severly swollen. Now that the swelling has finally gone down it looks as though he was burned. The top layer of skin is a dark color and is dry, blistered and peeling off. He says it itches and burns. I don't want to rub the skin raw trying to get the dead skin off, also his hands are still in a lot of pain so I can't touch them too much. Does anyone know of anything that I can soak his hands in, or apply gently to his hands to help speed along the process and soothe some of the discomfort it is causing him?

Thanks.
