My 4 yr. old daughter has normal fasting bg levels, but postprandial levels 1-2 hours after a meal often go as high as 280. She has had 5 readings over 200 in the past 4 days. Her bg numbers usually return to normal within 3-4 hours however. Is this indicative of diabetes?

Was reading something online and they said crunches were obsolete. I don't believe this, so far, but I want to know what you think.

I'd like to get some sort of exercising equipment for my mom (who's age is 50+). She's usually working in her office (computer programming) so she feels she does not have enough time to go out and exercise.

What are some good suggestions for equipment I can get her so she can exercise in her own office? And in case you are wondering: no...her office is not big enough for a treadmill. Something smaller, more compact would be nice.

Thank you!!!

Alright, the Chicago winter is coming to an end. I've been doing no exercise and drinking a lot of beer the past few months. Summer is on the way and I would like to feel comfortable taking my shirt off in public. I'm 6 feet tall, weighing in at 165 pounds. I'm not worried about my weight at all. My problem is that I have a little bit of a gut/beer belly which I would quickly like to get rid of. What are my best exercise options to get rid of my gut. It really is the only place on my body that I would consider fat.

This may sound strange but I am sure I had an out of body experience when I was 7 years yold I am now 36 and I remember it like it was yesterday. My dad had a contract to work in the copper mines in Africa and took us along. Well anyway I contracted Malaria and became very ill I remember lying in bed feeling very sick and began vomiting until I passed out then all of a sudden I was in the back of my dads landrover which had open back and we were driving home then all of a sudden he veered off the road and went uphill into a forrest (which was beautiful) below us the water was dirty muddy brown the further we went the clearer the water became until it was like crystal blue and the forest was lush and green there was a man standing next to a tree watching me and as I looked at the more curious I became the more loved I felt he beckoned me to him and I wanted to go with him I felt so loved and cared for but I couldn't. Do you think it was a dream I have often wondered about this.

Ok, I will probably sound like the biggest freak you have ever heard of on here before, but I have to get this off my chest. It's very annoying, and stressful to think about it. I feel paranoid at times at night. I love reading about history, and reading about those who have died in the past, etc. However, (this will sound really stupid to you, but I would appreciate some appropriate answers to give one of you that are lucky 10 extra points) for some reason, at night, I get this irrational fear that I'm being chased after or something, and I'm going to die. I'm usually alone a lot, and I get scared sometimes for just irrational reasons that don't make any sense. At night, I get a feel of anxiety when I'm trying to sleep where I continuously have bad thoughts, and I can't think clearly, while I'm excessively burning up in a stressful amount of heat under the cover. I've suffered this feeling my whole life, and have really never told anyone about it.
