Wanting to lose about 10 pounds ( left over baby weight), what is the best way on a low - carb diet? Eat under 20 carbs a day, exercise, and drink lots of water. Will that do it?

I would like to eat before I exercise so I can burn calories and lose weight won't have to worry about gaining weight. I heard it's best to eat fruits and veggies before a workout and after a workout, is that true?

i just answered a question about being prolife, and why its ok to pro-lifers in the case of rape. my question is, there were many responses to this question saying that its murder no matter what.
*please separate your responses with each question when you answer.*
question 1) if your child was raped and brutally murdered at the age of 12, would you want to kill the person that did it?

question 2) if your child was raped at the age of 12, would you want her to have the baby?

question 3) if you were married to a wonderful, loving man, and had 3 children to him, and you go to the store one day. you are raped by a drug dealer on the street, and get pregnant. would you have a child to this man?

question 4) would you expect your husband to stay with you if you had a baby to a rapist???

people pretend to be prolife, but instances such as these, how could you believe in it?

true, it should not be a method of birth control. but in instances like these...please comment.

I am having two wisdom teeth pulled soon and they are not putting me under for the procedure. I am sure they will give me novicane but I was wondering if there was anything else I can ask the doctor to give me for during the procedure to make me more comfortable while he removes the teeth? Thanks for any help.

I am in need of some information. I have been on a great deal of medication for my Bi-Polar and OCD. I have been having a terrible time with anxiety and was put on 1mg 2x's a day of Clonazepam. I am not clear on how long it takes this medication to start working. I do know all of the others I have taken in the past took up to 6 weeks before I saw even a little bit of relief. I hope this isn't the case with the Clonazepam. I know the answers I want to hear but break it to me. I can handle it. LOL

I have been diagnosed as having genital herpes. My last outbreak was a month ago. Right now I seem to have some kind of lesion. It's itchy, but its not in the genital area, more above it, on the pubic region (pubic mound). I don't know if that could be a sign of herpes or if its an ingrown hair - any advice?

My friends son suffers with severe depression,she is at her wits end to know what to do. For several years he was a drug addict and alcoholic,but went into rehab nearly three years ago. The thing is, he has been completely clean for nearly two years now,doesn't even smoke a cigarette, but suffers terrible bouts of severe depression and is suicidal. He feels there is nothing to live for, as he has spoilt his chances of ever meeting someone and being happy with a family. Nearing his 3Oth birthday,is a red light to his mum,as he has always said if he wasn't settled with anyone by then he would definitely end it all.She is in such a state,and within the last couple of days he seems to be allianating himself from the people he loves and who love him. He has never accepted that anti-depressants would be of a help to him,because of the drugs he has taken over the last l5 years.
His mum has tried to talk to him,he is a much loved person, but he can't see his worth. What can she do?
