Im on a diet now...not really a diet, a lifestyle change. I have PCOS and my doctor says that my gluscose level is high and I need to cut out bread products and if I do eat bread to make sure its whole wheat. My question is everyone I know says if you go on a "low carb" diet that you will lose weight really fast, has anyone done this and if so how long did it take to start actually losing a good bit of weight. I have about 75 pounds to lose..Any help would be appreciated.. Thanks!

I know this is a really stupid question but I have just gotten my period and it's incredibly painful, having horrendous PMT (which for someone suffering severe clinical depression isn't good) and really heavy. It's my birthday weekend and it's the last thing I need. Is there any way of stopping it?

My doc told me to take 150 mg once a day for 10 days and then up it to two pills a day. The third day I had the worst panic attack I've ever had in my life, so I called the psychiatrist, and she said to go back down to 150 mg for now. Can I get better without taking the 300 mg? I felt awful taking it.

I almost always have one whenever I eat without a glass of water beside me. Is it just a natural occurrence to everybody?

Is it possible for a penis to go gangrenous and fall off as a result/effect of smoking?

I know that smoking can result in reduced circulation and bloodflow to the Penis. I'm sure i once heard that someone lost thier penis from smoking. Anyone else heard this?

Does anyone know where i can find the picture of a body which is made up of lots of different photos of effected (from smoking) parts of the body.

Cheers everyone

Hi, I was told by my pharmacist that Singulair [for asthma and bad allergies] would make me feel like I had the "flu" for the first week or so, but in addition I also feel wierd personality changes, "not myself," however my breathing is SO much better...I have done some research and found that other people have also been more angry on this medicine, I am wondering if this is a temporary, initial thing, or if I should dis-continue it because it is a permanent side-effect. Thanks! I am currently on 10mg and am thinking of cutting back to 5mg to check it out...I am also 110 pounds so maybe this will make a difference...?

I'm 5'3" @ 160lbs. Everyone says I don't look it because I'm pretty solid. But I need to lose about 30lbs for me to feel comfortable with myself & I just found out diabetes runs in my family.So first I want to focus on eating healthier and living healthier.

I've joined SPARKPEOPLE.COM WHICH IS AN ENORMOUS HELP via a suggestion from a fellow Yahoo member!

Now, I'd like a site to inform me about nutrition, organic foods, good supplements, necessary vitamins. I think I eat healthy already. I only drink water,green tea,coca tea. One cup of coffee/week. I don't eat fast foods, fried foods, soda, or juice. I eat mostly seafood & poultry & little red meat. I eat whole grains like quinoa. I'm TRYING to take it easy w/ rice, bread, tortillas & pasta. I'm latina so I have a really hard time slowing down on the last food group mentioned.

I want to learn how to eat better not just knowing to eat more veggies & grains. I want to know how eating particular foods affect my body. HELP!

When I hear from somebody that they lost tons of weight just by walking, I get the urge to slap them. That was the problem? That's how you gained all that weight, by simply stopping movement? I wonder how on earth they could have adopted a lifestyle that involves no walking.

And come to think of it, when I hear from people who lost tons of weight through gastric bypass surgery, I want to slap some sense into them too. Oh, so the problem was, eating too much at once? That's a novel idea... So you went out and got damn surgery?

Bring on the thumbs down... i had to be honest here...
