Please tell me the good and the bad! I need to know side effects and if they went away. Also, did the med help your problem. Drawbacks? Saving graces?

Specifically, did you have sleep disturbances or weight gain/ loss?

I see so many questions concerning how do I lose weight. The answer isn't popping pills, starving yourself, exercising AND cutting back on food, taking laxatives, etc etc.

It's a simple solution. Motivation, exercise, eat, and know your body. You can eat 4 or 5 meals a day depending on your level of activity and the demands of your exercise program (also providing you have a decent metabolism) But, I wouldn't recommend eating at McDonalds for each meal. Eat those types of food with great moderation. You'll start to look and feel great.

I see all positives in that and yet people will still go ahead and do the things I mentioned above or worse yet, suggest it to other people.

Is it just ignorance? misinformation? lack of education? hoping to hear others will just say forget it, you'll never lose weight and just call the whole attempt off? What do you think or, if you are ones who chooses to lose weight the bad way, what is your way to lose weight and why do you do it that way?

I've heard from some people that it's actually cheaper to pay out of pocket. Has anyone ever calculated it out and seen if it's worth the money or would it be more cost effective just to pay out of pocket?

15 yrs of these things and they r driving me crazy! I've seen a lot of doctors and tried a lot of different meds. I am in the cycle now...83 days or so. I go to the hospital to get temporary relief, not without a lot of hassle tho. Are they really giving me relief or by the time I leave there is my peak over? Who knows? I've lost employment more then once due to these things. They knock me off my feet for a couple of hours, a couple times a day, 7 days a week, for about 3 months at a time, that's a lot of life lost. I can't function and my quality of life sucks. Does anyone know the answers or how to cope?

I just shaved my head completely because it itches and caused flakes even though I use a Wal-Mart-brand dandruff shampoo. Anyway, I found red-looking stuff on my head and were rounded? Is it normal or not to be on the scalp? Is it ringworm? If so, how do I naturally treat it? Do you or anyone you know have this type of problem?

I used to not take care of my teeth when I was younger but since I noticed some starting to get pretty wobbly I started to try to do better. It isn't doing any good. My mom took me to a dentist a couple weeks ago but we don't have dental, and it's gonna cost a lot cuz I have alot of cavities. He also said I have a pretty bad case of gum disease for somebody my age and I'll probly be losing some teeth soon. I thought he was just trying to scare me, which he did, but 1 of my front teeth actually came out today. I mean the whole tooth fell right out when I bit into a sandwich. We can't afford those treatments and they aren't even garanteed to work anyways. Can I really lose all of my teeth at my age? I'm freaking out cuz I have a front tooth missing now. I know my teeth looked like crap before, but now I'm losing them. The dentist told my mom when we were there before that the other option was to pull the worst ones and try to save some of the rest. I didn't think he was really serious.

SCHOOL SUCKS! TEACHERS SUCK! EVERYTHING SUCKS!LIFE SUCKS! I am not trying to offend anybody. I am just so depressed all the time now! I hate it! I am only 13 and already ready to leave (life) and give up. I have allways been a perfectionist. YEAH NOT WORKING ANYMORE! I screw up too people! My friends and family and teachers have always thought I have been as close to perfect as you can get. I hate that because I am not. THEN, my reading teacher is the only person that has noticed I was depressed. I was happy because for once someone noticed I was not Miss Perfect. I know I am not. I told her I was fine though. She sent me to the counselor anyway. I told her I was fine too. She let me go because I would't break down and talk. Now I wish they would ask me again because NOW I want help. At the time (4 months ago) I hadn't had too much of a problem. A small one but it has gotten so much worse I am very shy. I am scared to just go up to that teacher and tell her the truth. more...

I have an underbite and a crossbite which, according to my dentist and formerly orthodontist, would require an expensive surgery with a painful recuperation. My jaw also pops and naturally shifts slightly when i yawn, etc. They said it would be best to get it while I'm young but after I'm done growing. I think I'm now ready for the surgery but I'm worried about two things. One, how long does it take to recover? And two, what is the likelihood of me being permenantly messed up with TMJ disorder or something?

I went to the dentist recently and he told me that my gums are inflamed but that all I need to do is brush and floss better and they will be fine. I had a cleaning and he took x-rays and everything and thats all that he said. My gums are kinda red, but they don't bleed. However, sometimes it feel like when I put alot of pressure on my teeth and then push them with my tongue it feels like they move, but the movement isn't visible when I look in the mirror. But when I put alot or pressure on them and I look in the mirror, it looks like they move verryy slightly but I cant even tell. Also, theres not really a space between my 2 front teeth but when I push them together I can feel them touch each other then move apart. Is this normal? Is it serious? Wouldn't the dentist have realized if my teeth were loose. Please help because i'm very paranoid and I cant even enjoy things or think about the future because i'm so scared about loosing my teeth
