My boyfriend just found out that his sugar is way to high. His doctor doesn't seem like he's really sure of what he's doing. He gave my boyfriend 2 weeks to drop a few pounds and change his eating habits or he will be put on medication. He didn't give him a meter to check to see if it's coming down. He also told him to avoid beer but other alocholic beverages have sugar and carbs so why wouldn't he tell him not to have those as well? He also has sugar in his urine and his blood sugars were well over 500 but no pills were given to him to help bring it down. Since he's only offering weight loss at this time as a cure all can anyone suggest things he can eat to bring it down. I've changed his diet by reducing his carbs and sugar. Now he's feeling depressed and saying he doesn't care because things he's use to is being taken from him.

Walking for example. Riding a bike. Sit ups. Simple stuff really.... If you have other activities to add to the list with caloric information please do. Im a stay at home mom of a 5 month old so I dont have a lot of time for a work out schedule but it would be nice to know how many calories I can burn by doing everyday activites as opposed to a structured work out plan. Thanks!

This is my first time going to gym.
I did 3 sets of 10 sit ups with an ab Roller. I also did 2 sets of 7 with this machine (I put 20 lbs of weight in the machine)http://www.exerciseandnutritionthetruth.com/img/abmachine.gif
I relaxed after each set but when i woke up this morning my muscle stomach upper area hurts. Should I continue doing this? I plan to loose 10-20 pounds by going to they gym 5 times/week. I'm 5'4 and 150 lbs. I also used the treadmill for an hour by alternating walking and running. I did sweat a lot and it felt good.
I'm thinking since I'm a newbie I should do less of stomach work outs, and do more in the future.

One week ago my cat scratched me on my pinky finger. For the past week my pinky finger, the side of my ring finger and that side of my hand has been numb and tingling. the scratch doesn't appear infected, no redness or swelling, only the numbness. Should I see a doctor about this and if so, what kind?

Currently I lost 4 pounds since I started going to a gym 2 weeks ago (I started at 190 and now I'm 186) but this morning at the gym, something discouraged me. Today was my first session with my personal trainer and he thought I weigh only 150. When I told him I weigh much more than that and showed him by weighing in front of him, he was really surprised. I don't have too much fat on me (the only place I know I got flab is that annoying pouch underneath the navel) but I feel that maybe my large frame and muscle is the reason why I weigh so much. My thighs are big because though it's toned, it's full of muscle.

So I don't know how much I should really weigh? I want to lose weight but do I need to lose muscle to do so? I know I can't be a size 2 (my large frame and large chest won't let me) but I want to look healthy for my frame. Thanks in advance.

PS: Yes, I've been eating healthy and drinking plenty of water too.

In the past 365 days I have had a number of colds, the flu twice (I have it right now), a major infection (that lasted several months), I was diagnosed with IBS, and in general, feel very fatigued. I have been to the doctor and they ruled out most things (and eventually diagnosed the IBS), but that still doesn't explain the chronic illness.

Do I just have a weak immune system? If so, what can I do to boost it?

I co-own a small company, and my absences are a bad thing for everyone. *I* don't want to be home sick. It isn't a vacation. What can I do? I am starting to feel rather helpless.

If anyone could tell me their past or current experiences using Wellbutrin SR, that would be great. Also, I know that sometimes it causes weight LOSS. I didn't think that it would because usually anti-depressants cause weight GAIN. I'm a 21 year old female 5' 6" that weighed about 127 pounds before taking it and only a month into it am down ten pounds to 117. Is this ok? I am a little scared about it. Also, did anyone notice an increase in sex drive? Please tell me anything you can about it. Thank you soo much!

As we know breakfast is the most important meal of the day, however I can not eat straight away when I wake up as I'm never hungary and I can never eat a lot. What's the maximum time you should wait until you have breakfast before your body is starving and then is seen as missing breakfast. For example once you are awake should you eat breakfast within the first an half hour or 2 hours to kick start your metabolism or give your body the energy to start the day
