I have already missed WAY too much school and my vice principal has threatened to call truency, but the problem is that I really am sick right now. I can't hear out of my right ear, (sinus?) my nose is stuffy, I lost my voice, and my throat is sore.

My mom can't afford to take me to the doctor today and that is the only way my absence is unexcused. She suggested I go today and have them send me home, but they won't unless I have a fever! This is ridiculous, what are some other ways my absence can be unexcused? I know some of you will say we could forge a doctor's note, but that is illegal and my school would call and check anyways.

Is it true? I think I've gained some since I turned 20 (turning 21 in a few days). Has this happened to you as well?
I've already checked my thyroid etc. and everything seems to be fine.

I am 9st (126 lb) and 5ft 2
I have a 25inch waist but disproportionately large hips, thighs and calves
I know I am not fat but I would like to loose about half a stone (mainly to look a little more balanced!) Clothes shopping is a nightmare as I have to get a size bigger so it fits over my legs n hips but then it's always huge on the waist.
I have tried everything I can think of but the weight just doesnt seem to budge. I excecise regularly (a combination of running, aerobics and yoga 5 times a week) I try to eat a balanced diet a typical day would be
breakfast: A cereal bar and an apple
lunch: small portion of meat or fish, vegetables and small portion of potatoes (ususally mashed)
Dinner: slightly larger portion of meat or fish, lots of steamed veg, small portion of potatoes

Drinks: water (at least 2ltrs) 2 cups of coffee with semi skimmed milk 1 sweetner. 2 fruit teas Glass of wine

Other than starvation any ideas on how I can loose those few pounds?

A lot of overweight people make an excuse for themselves, by saying that they have a slow metabolism. But doesn't having a slow metabolism mean that your body takes longer than usual to burn up calories, so shouldn't that mean that you don't feel as hungry as often, if your calories last you longer?

Is there a difference when people talk about fiber and dietary fiber? Why do the nutrional fact sheet sometimes talk about fiber and other times talk about dietary fiber. Is one better than the other or are they the same?

I've been scared to eat since I first got sick 7 years ago. I do eat, but I think very carefully about what I eat and how much I eat & it's exhausting. I wish I could eat like I used to without having to worry about if what I'm putting in my mouth could cause more medical problems in the future. See 7 years ago I used to be perfectly healthy, had lots of energy, no digestive problems etc and I would eat what I wanted when I wanted, but then I started to have some really weird symptoms. First symptom I noticed was constipation. I didn't think much of it at first, but it continued for days. Then my skin became severly dry (really dry, it felt like sandpaper) and the skin under my arms (armpits) became really dry and scaly and very dark, almost black. Next symptom I noticed was I would sweat alot, even in cold weather. Finally my last symptoms I got was that I started getting severe pains on the lower right side of my abdomen and I would sometimes vomit. Please read additional details.

I can't find anything that's healthy and quick in the morning (low fat) that keeps me full until I can take a lunch. A bagel works, but...hmm, no butter, no cream cheese, and all those carbs. Cereal, fruit.......I'm hungry an hour later. I'd eat non-breakfast items, but I can't find that satisfying thing. And I have to have my coffee too. Any ideas?
