I am hoping someone can help me out (no rudy-poo comments please), but i have these light brown stains under my armpits. I am not sure how to get rid off them. I am not sure where they came from either. I have tried everything, different deo, less, more, spray etc

there are not overly unsightly but i notice them in some recent photos i have, i am self-conscious about wearing tang tops because of this undersight.

I shave my armpits once every 3-4 days,

Please does anyone have any ideas to get rid of them

maybe because you have to use up all the food before the expiration date or simply because tons of food is available? Thanks.

I weigh about 235, though its not super overweight for me, I would like to lose my gut. I am about 6 foot, and I work in construction, so I have to eat enough that I can work effeciantly. But, the past 4 months, I have only worked a little bit, and not only did I eat what I normally eat, but I am eating out of bordem. And just recently I realized I need to change. Mostly cause I don't want health problems. A friend just had a massive heart attack from too much cholesterol and being overweight, and I dont want that to be me.

So, are there any suggestions, besides surgery, pills, and not eating? And I have been excersizing, but its not helping much. I walk about 5 miles everyday, and play things like DDR, good cardiovascular workout. Still, its not enough.

I know someone who i really care alot cuz we had been friends since a long time ago already. That person admited me that smokes marihuana, but not all the time [like in a month, only 2-3 times]. Also, my friend explained me that it smokes it when feels super stressed about things. When i asked what kind of things to feel stress about, that person answered me things that i wouldn't consider as important or at least to get crazy about. I would like to really help this person before it goes any further...

How can i help on this???
How things can get in case that person don't get any treatment any time soon???

I have an appt. to get two more wisdom teeth surgically removed. I had one removed at the end of last year. Since I was out of dental insurance (Delta) money, medical insurance (medica) covered 80%, and paid the surgeon considerably less than what the initial bill was which made my 20% less which was nice. I have not used any dental insurance money this year, so I am concerned that the surgeon will bill Delta first and I will get stuck with bigger bill since it seems like dental insurance isn't as tough as medical ins. is on restricting what a surgeon can bill a patient. Anyone have experience on this? Should I delay extraction to the end of the year given their is not immediate problem so that I have some dental money left for cleanings and other issues?
