The benefits of drinking milk have been widely promoted. Except when one is lactose intolerant, are there other instances when milk is not good for the individual?

I am riding a stationary recumbent bicycle 3 times daily for 20 minutes, burning 250 calories each time. If I can keep this up (God willing) and watch my calorie intake, how much do you think I could lose in a month?

I am not anemic , but I am slightly clumsy. However, these bruises are really severe and I think it might be something more serious than "I bruise easily."

The support would be helpfull and I need someone to share the experience with...

and no Im not anorexic, fasting for a short period of time is not the same as starving ones self to skin and bones!

Fasting can have many health benefits.

anyone interested should let me know and we could keep in touch through email and yahoo chat...

ok awhile back i completely overhauled my eating. sure i still fall off the bandwagon and what not but i do my best to stick to it and i've lost 30lbs. i really need some good ideas to lose the last 40 and how long will that take do you think?(most of it's in my stomach area) what sort of goals should i make so i don't give up all together? i'm proud of myself but my sense of accomplishment is making me slack off a bit. i do have a treadmill if that helps for info..

any ideas would help..except for the people saying to cut off limbs lol =)

I normally shave with a gilette fusion razor in an upwards direction to get a really close shave, but I end up cutting my face a lot and it's painful afterwards. But if I shave downwards, it's less painful but no where near as close. Anyone have any idea either how I can have a closer shave in a downwards direction, or a less painful shave in an upwards direction, or perhaps which one is better?

And that the color of your eyebrows and pubic hair is independent of the color of the hair on your head? I'm talking natural color, not dyed hair, of course. You don't notice the difference in yourself because you can't see your own eyebrows, but it seems to be that way with other people, especially blonds, but not auburn hair.

Ever since a week ago, I have been waking up with a tendency to cough. 2 morinings ago I had a slight wheeze but nothing serious. I have no fever, no running nose, never had a sore throat...it's just I have to cough and it's sort of deep, and im beginning to cough stuff up. I guess that could mean it's breaking up. I feel fine though. Yesterday I could exercise for 35+ minutes playing basketball, and had no problems breathing. I don't think it could be bronchitis/pneumonia. Any ideas Thanks

There's a guy I know that does not have a lot of base in his voice. Are there voice exercises, books, anything that men can do to deepen their voice, so they retain an ideal masculine presence?
