I would like to lose weight on my lower legs (if that's not possible, then tone them), but I'm not quite sure what I should do.

At the moment, I go on my exercise bike for 20 minutes/5 days a week. But I don't think that's doing anything for my lower legs.

In addition to that, I recently started skipping. I heard that it works...if so, how long should I skip for per day to start seeing results? (I've started out not doing very many minutes - I don't want to overwork myself/injure myself)

I'd like to be able to tone/lose some weight off my legs in two months, for a special occasion.

any tips?

Oh and I'm a vegetarian - I feel that I eat fairly healthily. But I do have a soft drink/soda addiction. ;) I drink diet, though.

Our class president is a small, nerdy know-it-all. At the debate yesterday afternoon, he insulted the girl running against him, they got into a shouting match, and she tackled him and ripped off EVERY STITCH he was wearing and sent him running back across the quad to his dorm IN THE BUFF!!!

It was the most humiliating thing i've ever seen!!

I have a photo of his bare butt running away in shame...what is the FUNNIEST headlien i can use??

its been about 5 days -I havent done anything to strain them but I keep getting throbbing pains on the muscles in the joints of my leg- top of calf -bottom of thigh and in my hips. The pain feels alot like dehydration aches-also feels like I have a rubber band cutting off circulation. I've had the restless leg problem but not for awhile now and it never hurt...any ideas?

how is this possible? I heard before that loosing body fat was more important than weight anyway, but i haven't been eating extremely healthy. i've been eating less, but not healthy....also, i have been waiting until nicer weather to start a biking/cardio regiment, so how can i lose weight and body fat?

so i'm just sitting there with my cat on my lap and it sounded like someone had slammed into our french doors. looking back, i realize that the things we have hanging on the doors didn't rattle so that obviously means that no one slammed into our doors. my cat starled and looked around but just relaxed and fell back to sleep. i'm not even sure if the sound was real because it is very poosible that i simply jumped becasue i imagined something which would make my cat jump if he's sitting on my lap. still, i became spooked and checked all the doors. they were all locked and everything seemed well. i am still being hyper viligant and possibly paranoic, jumping at slight noises made by my cats, refrigerator, etc. i really am tired but now i'm afraid to go to bed in case what i heard was indeed real. irrational though it may seem, i am still a little frightened and wish for help. ADVICE??????

I was very big on top in middle school (a D in sixth grade before I got really heavy in high school). I lost a lot of weight (over 100 pounds in my older teenage years). Unfortunately, I'm barely an A cup now (sometimes a double A).

I've had two kids and go up to a double D during pregnancy and breast-feeding, but come down to a boyish-flatness afterwards. I worked out and got to an 18.7 BMI with fab abs (I am only 5' 3", but 18 BMI happens at about 125 for me)

I was not heavy when I initially got my breasts. I even went into a plastic sugeon when I was 12 to talk about breast reduction.

Is there any way I can control my breast size to keep it larger (my bras are literally every size), but still keep myself muscular and under 140?

I've tried uping my protein, but it's effect has been minimal. Am I doomed to being flat and thin or curvy and overwhelmingly voluptuous? Is there any way I can strike a middle ground?

She will always has a stamachache first then she will has to go to the toilet. I'm wondering if its got to do with the daily supplyments since she has been taking a year ago, they are organic vegetable multivitamin, omega 3 salmon oil & vitamin C . She used to have bowel movement every 2-3 days before taking these supplements.

It actually got worst today when she fainted in school after having stamachache & then pass motion all over herself (can this happen to people who fainted?)

hope someone with medical knowledge can enlighten me on this matter & if i should take her for a medical check up?

It has worked for me every time.If they "mature" though it doesn't work only when they are first errupting.After application the next day or so it falls off.What causes those anyway and is it dangerous to snip them off?

I was diagnosed with a DVT blood clot in august and have been in therapeutic range since. I know that you are not supposed to have more thantwo drinks as alcohol is a blood thinner and will thin the blood too much. I took five days off of the coumadin for a dental procedure and was just fine. Would it be ok to skip one day to enjoy myself at a wedding since alcohol is a natural blood thinner? I know I should NOT do it but think I would be ok?

i am 15 years old and i have a lazy eye. i have had 2 operations done on it so far. (one at the age of 10, and one at the age of 12) my eyes were fine after the operations but just last year my eye became crossed again and people started to notice it alot. i was wondering if i can still get an operation to get it fixed or if theres another way for me to cover it up.
