I feel as though I get a better work out from running but after a good 30 min workout on the elliptical machine, it shows that I've burned close to 400lbs. Much more than what I would burn on a treadmill. Anyone successfully lose weight while using the elliptical? Help, keep me motivated.

Heyy, i'm tryin to do the low carb, low sugar diet. Eating a little bit of low carb and low sugar foods thoughout the day makes your body pull insulin from your fat hence burning it. But i can't find anything in the store that isn't loaded with sugar, fat, or carbs!! someone help!!

me and my partner have been havin unprotected sex for like the past month in a half but whenever we start we never finish because of my fear of getting pregnant, so like 5-10 mins after we start i always make him stop so he doesn't ejaculate. I also haven't came on my period but this isn't the first time, i've skipped a month before and i wasn't even sexually involved then! but now i'm on this birth control called estrostep and if i am pregnant which i'm doubting, can taking this pill harm my unborn child?

A user named Pex has given an Answer to about 1000 diet questions here - linking to this website: http://diet4cleansing.com/ (I think there are some other links which he/she has given which lead to the same site).

I don't know if Pex is somehow who was a customer of this diet & became a big fan & is promoting it out of the good of his/her heart - or is affiliated with this program & is out to promote it (not a bad idea from an advertising stand point, but not quite ethical, either).

Has anyone tried this cleansing diet - or something like it? Any success?

I need a place in which I can walk in and purchase the items over the counter if such a place exists. I also would be interested in knowing the cost of such items if that is possible.

Mine started to come in right after I turned 16. I'm almost 18 now and I only have the top 2. How come the bottom teeth haven't started to grow in? How long does it usually take? Is barely 16 the right age for them to come in?

My nephew had his appendix out about 8 weeks ago and the wound is still ' leaking' Its not pus the discharge but a clearish fluid.
He has been on antibiotics but the discharge is still there. The district nurse said something could be deeper inside. He was readmitted from casualty and the wound reopened and a long strip of material /dressing was removed. Is there a doctor out there who could advise and would a scan help?

I am on Depo Provera and just got a prescription for the patch. I know that in most cases you are supposed to start using the patch the first day of your period, but now that I am on Depo I do not get periods anymore. I really need help trying to figure out when to start using the patch. Has anyone switched from Depo to the pill or patch? How did you do it?

I recently started school this last month and I usually have a regular period. I took a pregnancy test this morning but it was negative. I'm only like 5 days late but I'm still scared I might be pregnant. Could stress on school affect your menstrual cycle?

I recently was offered a great job for a company that i have been applying to for years. I am not a big pot smoker, but enjoy it once a month or less. I need to pass a drug test. The last time i smoked was over two weeks ago and i don't have any money at the moment. The catch twenty two is that i just found out im pregnant. Many of the suggestions ive read dont seem that safe for someone who is pregnant. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. thank you. oh and yes i have quite smoking sense i became aware of being pregnant.
