Ok, Im going to the orthodontist in September. I dont really know what to expect. Will it hurt? What will they do? How long is it from the first visit until you actually get the braces? How long will I have braces (give me an idea please, i have like 3 teeth on the bottom that are a little cooked like they are just a tad out of place, and one of them kind of overlaps another one, and on the top, there is one, it is where I couldnt get a baby tooth out so the new tooth started coming in over it)????? Will this hurt? Tell me EVERYTHING I should expect please! Im just really nervous!!!!! Help!! I dont care if its harsh, as long as its true!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am a bagel lover but I hate cream cheese so I eat em' without it (my favorites are cheddar cheese bagels and sun dried tomato ones, too).

However, one nutritionist on Morgan Spurlock's "Super Size Me" movie said that one bagel is equivalent to eating five slices of bread. Is it true that bagels are that unhealthy? I don't eat them on a regular basis.

do something which is would have quite a low probability of working out but would gurantee you a good life but would came at a very very price if it doesnt work out ie mess up your life completely forever
OR
would you rather take the path of a pretty crappy life but that is guranteed to be just that bit better than the one you would have had had you not taken the risk...
i hope this makes sense...

Had food poisioning 3 weeks ago,rash now appeared on chest and neck. Looks as though the rash has had blisters because each spot a dried up blister attached. Rash is not painful or sore but does not seem to want to clear up. Could it be related to food poisioning episode or could it be something else. Any ideas ?

Kind regards

I was diagnosed about 15 years ago when I was all of 14. I got better after having my first child but seem to be relapsing.(This'll be the 2nd relapse) Drs are no help at all so does anyone have anything that they do that helps? I already try to eat healthy, exercise, maintain a good weight, stay away from stress as much as possible etc etc etc

We recently found asbestos in the exposed piping in our basement. It is wrapped in some sort of cloth, but the cloth is torn in several places, leaving the asbestos exposed. The property management company with which we deal as renters sent its maintenence crew out and they simply wrapped the asbestos in duct tape. Does anyone know if this is a common practice and if it is safe and effective? Thanks!

I'm 17 years old. 5' 5", 125 lbs. These days i have been BINGE EATING and i have no idea why ( and no it's not caused by some deep emotional feeling hidden inside of me)...i've gained a few pounds over the last few months but that's because i've grown and everday i tell myself that tomorrow i will eat less (because i want to lose about five pounds) but then i just end up eating so much! i've eaten 870 calories so far and it's only 10:21 am. How do i control myself? sometimes i just don't eat because i know that once i start eating i will just eat more and more and more...i eat even though i'm full...

I'm debating on metal or invisalign/orthoclear. For money sake I'm leaning towards the metal, but for physical/looks sake, it's invisalign. But until they are straighter, the clear will just look like my crowded teeth right now. Do either hurt more or less? I figure they're both doing the same thing to your teeth so they will hurt equally but I'm still debating. Any advice would be appreciated!

Hi people, hope everyone's day is going fabulously thus far! :) I've been a real health nut for the past three months; eating healthy and working out just about everyday. Question, if I decided to change my eating habits, and eat a LOT of salad, is that healthy? Well, I know it's healthy, but would eating this way cause me to miss out on any nutrients or anything? For instance, I go to a popular restaurant, and buy their chef salads. These salads have all the good veggies, in addition to a few wedges of chicken breast. So, my favorite meal for breakfast is oatmeal. If I ate oatmeal in the morning, and then a salad for lunch and dinner, outside of the meal being boring on a long term basis, nothing but good can come out of this right? Looking to all you diet and fitness gurus for guidance! :)
