How or what can I do to lose weight? My husband says I look great, but I know he just says that to try and make me feel better. Before I got married I weighed about 135lbs and now it's been a year and a half later and weigh almost 160lbs. How can I lose the weight in 2 or 3 months. Please help!

I know I should drink water, and that it is healthy to do so, but I never drink it. In all actuality, I hate water. I hate the taste, and it mostly makes me feel really sick after I drink it oddly enough, sometimes even prolonged for a few hours. I just don't like it. Besides from that, I consider myself a healthy person. I work out 2-3 times a week, I sweat normally, I tend to avoid fast foods, and other unhealthy food or drinks. I consider myself in fair shape, with a fairly good diet. I do drink a lot of juices, mainly being apple because I love it.

But as much as I try to get used to water I hate it. I dislike the taste and it makes me feel sick. Are there other ways I can stay hydrated without drinking water? Any explanation on why I feel sick after I drink water? Or perhaps why I've had no problems with never drinking water?

I probably have a bottle of water, about once ever 2 months, give or take.

Thanks

For the past several years, mostly during cold weather, I have episodes where I have had a shooting pain go from the bottom of my spine all the way to the top. It is crippling for about 30 seconds. On most occasions I get a bad headache for a hours. No rx helps. This pain is in my pulse. I know it has to sound crazy. It can best be explained like this - ever had an earache? you know how you can hear your pulse in your ear and it drives you INSANE. I FEEL the pulse go from my back to my head and with every beat come a pulse of pain.

Well, all day today I have had that pulsating pain in my back and neck. Now it's on one side of my temple.

Any help? Thank you.

What will happen when I go to the dentist? I know it took 2 sessions last time. What will they do in the first appointment?

Well, today is Saturday and it's the last day of my pack of birth control pills. Tomorrow (sunday) is going to be a start of my new pack. However, the pharamacy that I always go to is closed tomorrow and Monday. Meaning, I will have to skip "sunday and monday" pills. I won't get my new pack until Tuesday morning. What do I do since I missed two days of the pack? Do I take all three pills on Tuesday. or just start on Tuesday and forget Sunday and Monday pills? Please help. Really confused!

I'm 22 and for a long time I have been thinking about getting circumcision done, here is why. For a very long time I've had to deal with the fact that I have a very sensitive penis. My first sexual experience was very excruciating to where I immediatley developed cramps and had to exclude myself for at least 2 years ( I know.) I've also noticed that at times I had foul oders coming from my genitals, something I cannot handle. I've taken advice from friends like how to pull the foreskin back, but it seems to much for me. What should I do? My sex life is not all that great.

I have bad anxiety and panic attacks. Has anyone ever been hypnotized to try and get rid of their problem with this? If so, what was the outcome? Did it work or not?

I have had my belly button pierced for about six months and the bottom hole doesn't seem to be healing or even trying to heal. It just bleeds and scabs and looks unhealthy. The top hole has already healed. I clean it often but not too often. I also apply neosporin to the bottom hole. I use antibacterial soap. Does anyone have any suggestions for me? Thanks--

I got thyroid cancer 4 years ago, went through the whole sugery removal, radiation, the works. Now I"m fine. My TSH level is fine. I take hormone replacments pills everyday. Anyone who is hypothyroidism knows losing weight feels like trying to get into the olympics. Now, everytime I go to my doctor to ask what I can do to lose weight, he give me BS answers.....join and gym, eat less, eat healthier. Done all the that. Within those 4 years, I still work out on a regular basis, been eating super healthy, still do. I don't lose a pound. I"m not overweight, but I would like to shed some pounds. It's embrassing to be working out so much, and not have anything to show for it. So if theirs any sugestion or similar stories, please share.
