Health - 11 October 2006

I've heard some people say that fasting is bad for you. I've heard others say that it is good for you. I'm 6ft 245lbs and I need to get down to 210lbs to join the Navy. I also have large biceps that I've been working on for a while. If I start fasting (for say a week), will my body just eat away my muscles and leave me with fat? Any advice about fasting is appreciated even if it doesn't have to do with the questions asked. Thanks very much.

I was eating some fruit from the refrigerator, and I noticed it tasted weird, however, I noticed to late. I saw it was because it was moldy, but I had already eaten some of it. I tried to gag myself so I could throw it up but couldn't.

I have already tried various different soaps and skin products and nothing helps. I installed a water filter in my shower which proved to be a waste of money.
Could I be allergic to something in the water? Should I see my doctor?

Is there a government funded program that would help my uncle from his problems with addiction? He is on the verge of death and its no joke. He already has hepatitis and is very weak. His job told him he could take time off to fix himself, but he just made an excuse about him being sick. He needs help, and he needs help before he dies. Please someone reach out to me, or give me valuable information that would help me put him in a rehab or something. I will ommit him but i have very little money, me and my family do not have much money to spend.

Before I start I wanted to say I'm not looking for sympathy... just for people who are like me. I started self injuring my junior year. It started with cutting up my legs and arms. Now I don't cut anymore but burn myself. I'll take a cigarette and put it out on my body until it's all the way gone. It helps me to relax. Does anyone else have this problem? Especially with burning?

I am not overweight--in fact, seems I can eat whatever and not get fat, but I would like to eat healthy for the sake of my family, at least, and so that I feel better. But I'm having trouble drumming up the willpower to stay away from sweets! Any tips?
