Health - 21 February 2007

i eat 400 calories a day (but I spread them out throughout the day, eg. 1 grapefruit, half a sandwich, fruit, vegetables, tuna etc.) , drink lots of water (and tea) do 300 leg raises, 200 situps, usually burn about 50 calories on a treadmill. How much weight can I lose in a week? 2 weeks?

Also, how can I keep my metabolism up so I don't go into starvation mode?

Thank you so much!

ive always wanted to be a runway model and am 5 10" , long blonde hair and have been told by scouts i have what it takes. when i go to local fashion shows and see the other girls it spurs me on to starve myself and i am so miserable. when i see my friends i have to hide from them that i dont eat. when i was talking to another young model she told me that she gets loads of colonics and takes laxatives and she was so skinny and lovely. so i have been taking laxatives, starving and am booked into get a colonic. but i feel so jealous and my life is taken up with how skinny i am. i am now in a size 2 , but many models are a size 0 and it gets me so down to think i am fat and ugly. i dont have a social life anymore and hadly talk to my family. i am so depressed and need help

I have about seven hours of homework left, three tests to study for, I have to prepare a schedule for my classes I am going to take next year, I have to somehow create a lab analysis of a lab handout I don't even have, and I need to get some sleep tonight since I have to get up at six to get ready for school. I have tried to handle this each night but I can't take it any more. Please help!
ps. All the homework is due tomorrow and was assigned today in my classes. I have been working since three.

I shower daily, use antibacterial soap, use a great antipersperant (the problem isn't sweating, it's the smell) and have tried many deodorants. Yet, I still smell.


My social life has been ruined by this, because c'mon, who wants to be around someone who smells. Plus, since I know I smell, I don't have the self-confidence to approach people and show them how funny/nice/interesting I really am.

I TIRED of people walking into a room and saying "it smells disgusting in here."

Is there any advice you can give on possibly a pill I could take to solve this awful problem. By the way, I'm a 16 year old GUY, and am too embarrased to talk to my parents about this (I don't have that type of relationship with them, so that's out of the question)...so I can't go to the doctor.

So I have this weird thing going on in my chest. My heart starts to beat extremely fast (not on daily basis and not during excersize) and i feel extremely weird. I get short of breath and feel dizzy and almost like I'm going to throw up. When I was 15 I used to abuse crank for a year and around 23 I used Crystal Meth approximatly 10 times. BEFORE YOU SAY ANYTHING BAD..I dont do drugs anymore. I am 25 years old now. Can anyone tell me what they think my heart is doing?? Kind of concerned, anyone thinking I should seek medical advice or is this a normal thing that happens to alot of people? Do you think its drug related or a heart murmur??? Thanks for the advice in advance!!

I know that stress is a huge factor due to cortisol and I know by my flare ups during crazy times and I tend to eat more than what is intended as average daily intake, which lately is all the time. My question is this, if cortisol plays such a huge role with my stress, would it be a good idea to go to the doctor and get some sort of medicine that helps maintain stress.
