Health - 9 January 2007

When you go on a diet, for example, you ate 1500 calories before you went on a diet. So I cut 500, and ate only 1000 calories for two months to lose 10 pounds. Now that I've achieved my goal weight (yes!), I want to maintain it so bad, I swear. I don't want to gain weight AT ALL, after all the hard work I've done.

What I want to do though, is to eat 200-300 more calories a day than I used to. Doing that, will I gain weight? Is my body used to 1000 calories? I lost two pounds every week during my weight loss process. So... 500x7 = 3500 = 1 pound. I exercised 3-4 times a week (dancing as my cardio, approx 30-60 mins, sweat as much as possible), I tried to walk around as much as possible, so that helped a lot. So I lost 2 pounds a week.

SO NOW... If I ate 1200-1300 calories a day, I won't gain weight, am I not right? Since I'm not trying to lose weight anymore, and I don't want to gain. It seems pretty logical, right, that if I eat that much, I wouldn't gain?

Have had problems with antidepressants because they spike serotonin levels which can lead to death. I don't know of any doctor who prescribes Serotonin re-uptake inhibitors who monitor serotonin levels.

Listen. I had this little issue with skin irritation in random areas (not Genitals) arms, inner thighs, um mostly arms tho,hands, shoulders etc...

The awkwardness of my irritaition is the first ever in my life having any n it goes like so.
Randomly out of nowhere i'll look at my wrists n i'll have reddish areas with varied shaped welts mainly by my inner elbow, bicep, n forearm. somtimes on my wrists n top of my hands. All randomly throughout the day. minor itch, more so just visually annoying.

Whenever i grip something tightly especially rope, like walking a dog or even curling barbells my palms will swell n kind of itch n swell to the point it burns to make a partial fist (clenching motion) WTF?!!?!?!
I could be just clapping my hands n that area will swell n stay that way for a few minutes n have an almost burning itchy feeling...
(Iv'e never in my life had any kinds of reaction of these sorts n iv'e been around it all!!!!)

Not working nor have insurance soo....

My period is almost a week late and on January 3rd I switched from the pill to the shot. I should've got my period on Saturday. I know last month I had unprotected sex with my fiancee and I'm wondering is it possibly pregnancy or could it just be from changing birthcontrol methods.

I've been pondering on cancer from human cells because of the fact that our DNA gets messed up. Or the protein gets damaged past the point where it's unable to be repaired, and our body still tries to repair it, but it goes to the path of cancer. Then I suddenly thought of plants ever being able to be afflicted by this same type of damage, or whether or not plants can get cancer.

I guess you can say I am sort of a begginer in sex, no I am not a little kid, I'm a mature adult. I have only had sex with 2 people and it was just basic stuff, all with a condom. I want to have sex with my GF now, but I have always been curious to do it without a condom. Neither of us has an STD so we are safe, the only thing we are worried about is getting pregnant. We are thinking about putting her on birth control pills and then going from there the pulling out technique. But more than anything lets say we do it and I *** in her, what happens after? Does she have to clean? Leave it there? What are the proper steps? Is it ok for me to *** in her WITH a condom on? Is this safe? Does it matter whether she is on brith control or not if I *** inside of her with a condom? Can I? Whats the clean up like for either of these scenarios:? What do we do after? Help! Begginer here...detailed answers here please!

Are there any female andrologists/urologists around? Or any other girls that I can consult with about some issues that I'm too insecure of telling a male doctor? I feel intimidated by male doctors because I'm really small down there and I've had a bad experience in the past.

I've already lost 10 pounds and I want to maintain my current weight. I eat 1000 calories a day, and I want to increase it to at least 1200 calories a day. Would I be able to do that and maintain my weight? Will my body get used to burning 1200 calories a day naturally? My basic metabolic rate (I looked it up in the internet) is 1300 something.
