Health - 27 November 2006

I am over weight I am 5' 3" and weigh about 190. However I have a flat stomach and I don't feel that I look "sloppy" I am...very well endowed, and I feel that I look rather like Andromeda in this Rubens painting, as far as size...only more, top heavy.

I also feel my fittest and I look my best at about 150-155 lbs.

In all honesty if I weighed the 125 I'm "supposed" to I would be a tiny, muscleless weakling. As it stands I am the strongest girl I know. :D

So my question is, why does that little cookie cutter weight/height equation still apply?

For a class project, I have planned to shut off the class lights and turn on red-light bulbs throughout out the entire hour period. Do you think that it will hurt people's eyes staring at a light red room for over an hour?

I have this tiny tiny little hole at the top of my ear thats been there since birth. Lately, it has become painful and swollen. It itches and when I itch it the ear hole smells. I have not had any weird injuries to the ear. I can not figure out how to remedy it or even why it is painful.

Ive always "heard" that if you consume food at a reasonable rate and not over eat, that by drinking a lot of water during the day can make you lose weight. As someone who exercises 4-5 days a week, i am wondering. Can i eat the foods i want to eat WITHOUT over eating, work out consistanly and Drink 2-3 liters of water per day and still lose weight? Is Water really going to be the Key to my success?

I need a good remedy for acne, not something you saw or heard about, but something that you have used and know it works. Im having bad outbreaks of pimples lately and i'm afraid their going to turn my girlfriend off especially since they are near the mouth.

is losing water weight the same as being dehydrated? if you dont drink all day would that make you lose water weight? if so, then why would people take water pills to lose water weight when they can just not drink? im a bit confused...
