what about a diet that alternates daily calorie amounts, like one day you eat 800-1000 cals and the next day you eat 1400-1600. Would this help keep the metabolism fast?

I just switched from Effexor to Wellbutrin XL. Ever since I started taking Wellbutrin, I've been hearing a few things. I've heard a German couple arguing, and the man sounds very violent and angry. I just started to hear gunshots a couple of days ago. I haven't been able to tell my doctor yet; I see him in approx. 2-3 weeks.

I'm 15YO if that helps.

Is this a normal side effect or should I be concerned?

Is it true that if you drink half of your body weight in ounces of water per day, you'll drop weight pretty quickly? If so, why is this? Thanks guys!

my neice had a reaction to rocephin once and was later given the same antibiotic iv again that immediately resulted in seizures and was later that evening diagnosed as brain dead with severe catatrosphic damage to her brain. One physician said he did not think rocephin caused the stroke. She was a sickle cell patient.

Ok well me and my best friend just joined a local gym... I am about 25 pounds over weight and i want to know, do i need to lose this weight before i start lifting and weight training or should i just let it slowly wear off?
I would also like to know any recomendations on how to get cut... i don't want to be a 280 pound body builder but i would like to be defined.
So any information on certain muscle groups, protein powders / shakes, and just any recomendations would be great.

My daughter was prescribed augmentin. She is 20 months old so she was prescribed the liquid form. When I got it, I noticed it was very thick. I gave her 4 doses (2 days worth). Starting a couple of hours after the first dose she began getting diarrhea real bad and complaining of a bellyache. A couple of hours later she began running a fever. I called the doctor and he changed her antibiotic.
I went ahead and measured what was left of the augmentin because I knew it didn't look right-I should not have given it to her in the first place. The bottle should have had 15 tsp in it. Since I had given her 4 dosages of 3/4 tsp, there should have been 12 tsp left in it. However, upon measuring it, there was only 9 tsp. That means that the pharmacist (or assistant?) did not put enough water in with the medicine. They have to add the water to the bottle. That meant that the four doses I gave her were concentrated.
Should I contact a lawyer or call Walmart?

I am 5-ft tall, and currently weigh 165-175lbs. I was around 120-125. I gained 20-ish pounds when I was on birth control pills to regulate my menstrual cycle (I have PCOS). I stopped taking the pills several months ago, but I continued to gain. I've always been a relatively healthy eater; I never had problem with weight gain (until now). I can feel how unhealthy my body has become; I huff and puff when i walk up the stairs or even just walking a bit faster than my snail pace. The excessive skin are trapping in moisture, which gives me rashes. I am going to be my cousin's bridesmaid next year, so I have a year to slim down. I am considering going on the Medifast 5.1 diet and exercising at 24-Hr Fitness.

Has anyone tried the Medifast 5.1 diet? Did it work for you?

Does anyone have any other recommendation?

Thanks in advance.

I want to be able to tell her the facts maybe talk her out of it.

I hadn't been playing or exercising either. It happens about every other month. I'm retired, so it's nothing to do with periods. Nothing hurt, and I felt better after about 30 min. Then we went & ate, because we thought maybe that had something to do with it. I had eaten about 4 hours before this happened. Oh yeah, I saw my Dr. a few months ago & he tested my blood & found nothing wrong. Thanks.

I am a 17 year old girl. I weigh about 170 and my height is 5’5. I am a little overweight I guess. I was wondering what is the perfect weight I should aim for? One thing is that I am big boned so I can never be a stick. My bust size is a C. So I guess these factors add to the weight. I eat quite cautiously and exercise often but nothing seems to work :( Can any nice people give me advice? I don’t like my body… (if u want to be mean please don’t reply)

I am 20 years old and weigh about 290 lbs. I have high blood pressure (usually just due to stress-college) and High cholesterol of 216. I am taking Caduet for both and I also have thyroid. I have started to include Metamucil fiber and pills to help lower cholesterol as well as fibersure. I exercise a bit but not as much as I should and I am starting to eat healthy have been for some time & drink more water than ever. My highest lbs was 330, lost weight unknowingly suddenly & I only found out b/c of a visit to the dr.'s office. I know the danger of being overweight and I am scarred that something will happen if i dont change & loose the weight but I need advice maybe a chat buddy or a mentor who has the same problem. I don't want it for the guys, or the clothes, I want to loose weight b/c I am really scarred and tired of having health issues. I think it's holding me back from who and what I want to be. So anybody feeling friendly to give advice or chat about similar problem txt me.
