Im not terribly interested in dropping some weight, but if I lost 10 lbs or so casually I woudlnt complain. So I have to ask.

Is it true if you drink ice-cold water, your body has to heat up and in turn burns more calories?

What are the chances of getting pregnant if you used the pull-out method when she was ovulating? What are the chances of getting her pregnant at any given time during the pull-out method. I'm looking for statistics and real-number odds, not just "pretty good chances."

Its been 5 months now, My friend Died coming back from the Prom, he was only 18, about a month after that, one of my teachers died, another month later, my family decided that it was time to move, I am 16 and a half now, I lived in my home town for 16 years, and I knew not anything else, this town is just as big, and things in my life are better, I have even found love here, yet I find myself coming home, even from an extremely good day where I found no hardships, and break down sobbing madly, I can't find any real joy in my life, even god has forsaken me. I can't find it in me to feel anything but grief, what is wrong with me

I'm not sure I spelled it correctly, but I was told that I have this cyst on my cervix...should I be worried? The doctor said it was a normal finding, but I'm still a little nervous about it. Anybody else have this?

Me and my boyfriend have been in a debate over whether his eating habits are normal or not. On most days, he'll have a small salad and a bowl of cereal. Later in the evenings, he'll want to eat something along the lines of 2 cheese quesdillas...Some of the time I can get him to have a chicken cutlet along w/ it. He says he eats when he's hungry, however, it seems like the amount he eats just isn't much...Especially if he doesn't eat much of a dinner [he tends to wanna skip dinner once a week]. He doesn't get terribly hungry very often, and he claims his appetite is fine. I know it isn't bad if he has many small meals during the day, but it seems like the amount he eats all together barely makes an entire meal. He claims that he's had an appetite like this for a long time. Is this all ok?

Sidenote: He has Epstein-Barr [chronic tiredness]. If he's not eating corretly right now, could he be making things worse for himself?

okay so like if someone had been cutting only they did it like on their stomachs or somewhere where clothes covered it and someone accidentaly saw it and they said that the cutter had been doin it just for attention.
how could that be possible for the cutter to have done it for attention if it has been hidden for so long and no one has ever seen it before?
but do u think cutting is okay as long as the person never goes too deep and it's like hidden and stuff?
i was just wondering.....

I see that food nutrition labels now show the amount of trans fat, but do not list a percentage of the recommended daily intake. What is it? If it hasn't been officially provided, can anyone "ball-park it"?
