I received an email the other day supposely by a weight loss specialist and he says that he conducted a research experiment on weight loss by drinking lots of water and none of his test subjects lost weight by drinking tons of water. Do you think this is true? I thought that water flushed fat?

I am around 200 pounds and I am wanting to loose around 50 pounds I have 4 children all under the ages of 5 and only one of them is in school so a gym and so on are totaly out. I try to watch what I eat and I try to be active. With 4 kids I have to be active. If I can loose more that 50 that would be great because my boyfriend can't stand how big I am. So if I could loose more than 50 he would get off my butt about how big I am.

I know someone who is taking lipozene and she lost 27 pounds in 30 days. Now that is damn near close to a 1 pound a day. Has anyone out there tried it and if so, what type of results did you get? I saw the blogger who wrote bad review on lipozene and stated that lipozene is a fraud and the company is responsible for other related products with different names. Is this true? Are we talking about the same people here? I want to order it cuz I want to see results. Please repond as soon as possible. Thank You.

it seems like alllll these topics are about something nasty. go to a doctor if ur that worried! or they are about some nasty sexual problem. keep it to yourself! i thought this would be more about health stuff and less of the weird stuff. guess i was wrong. what do you think?

The dream was hubby started fishing in the sea with some sewing thread, he caught a fish, when he brought the fish onto land it was dead. I asked hubby in my dream to show me how to catch a fish, he showed me and then I used the thread and again caught a fish, the fish was alive and wriggly....

What does this dream mean and why did we have a wardrobe on the beach in the dream?

My husband has a job where he is constantly walking, walking... for 8 hours a day. He gets bad chafing in his inner thigh area, that is very painful. He has tried baby powders, corn starch powders, even diaper rash ointments. These do help healing the rash areas, but we need some suggestions for prevention while walking so much. Any ideas out there? Thanks!!

replace old ones with the fiberglass exposed. She gets splinters from the fiberglass on her hands and arms from handling these trays. It causes a rash that is uncomfortable and embarassing. She's a server in the food industry so it can't be healthy for her or her customers. Other employees have the same problem and they've all complained to management who says there's nothing wrong with the trays, the rashes are not their problem, thus they refuse to replace them. Anybody have any suggestions on where this can be reported? Please don't offer "quit the job". These employees are all students trying to make a living while getting an education. They deserve to be treated better on the job. Can OSHA help in a situation like this?

First some background: I've had panic attacks before when my dad died 2 years ago. 2 months ago I've lost my dog of 12 years. I no longer get panic attacks because I now know how to recognize what is happening and i calm myself down. But I do get in states where everything just feels "off" or "weird" and I almost feel detached from myself. When it happens I force myself to go do something else and it passes and I get back to being fine. I've seen my regular doctor and he says it's just anxiety. I was prescribed some lorazapam as a sedative to take as needed, which I haven't touched yet.

I guess I just want to know if people feel like that sometimes too... Like this "weird" feeling is sometimes like a feeling of impending doom, or sometimes I'll just feel really down and cry..other times it just passes really fast.

I had about 2-3 weeks of being perfect and without any symptoms, and now it's come back a bit.

Anything I can do? Is it normal?
