I used to love spiders as a kid, but I finally accepted tonight - as I first put a shoe on the end of a broom to kill a spider many feet away from me, and then used the same broom to kill a spider in the corner by attaching a Q-tip to the end with a hair tie - that I have a problem, and maybe even arachnaphobia. I hate spiders, if I've seen one in the last few minutes I feel like they are crawling all over me and I shake and flip out for a while or I get itchy. If one comes on tv I have to look away and close my eyes and plug my ears. If they are on the wall I can barely stand to kill them but I will kill them if they are too close or if they are in my son's room.

the dr says I need to lose 55 lb to control my diabetes

I am suposed to start by calculating what i eat now for a week , averaging that and starting by lowering by a percetage each week. I am 64 and have congestive heart and lung problems and need to do it very gradually like over a year. How can I even find a calorie counter that shows things like whipped cream, half nd half, ice cream, fried chicken etc. All the ones i find on the internet assume you dont eat these things

I currently weigh in at 220. I just started to walk outside more since it's nice (finally). I walk approximately 1.6 miles which takes me a little under 30 minutes. Is this going to help me lose weight? Or will this just keep me at the weight I'm currently at? HELP I need advice!

I've heard a lot of doctors won't prescribe it, so what kinds of things should I say? I've tried every product out there for acne.

For about 3 weeks now I have been dealing with waht I am thinking to be anxiety, but could very well be a large number of other things. Every symptom I have though is right along with panic attacks...which I have struggled with in my past.

Anyway, I took a xanax, and I feel completely better. Does this mean that my issues are probably anxiety, or panic related?

Thanks for all who answer!

I missed 4 birth control pills at the beginning of my month/pack and decided to wait until my period started to start a new pack. It has been 3 weeks and my period still hasn't started. I started the pill because of cramps and got a cyst my first month on the pill. I am not nor have I ever been sexually active (I am 18). Lately I have been getting really bad lower abdominal pains (but they come and go) (I get them no more than once a day). Am I just overreacting or could this be something serious?

Hi everyone.

I fractured my knee March 10th and am recovering - and I live in Los Angeles, which means it's almost beach time. I'm far from overweight but in the time since my accident I've been not doing much physically and eating a lot of sweets and am going a bit soft around the middle.

What's some good things I could do (but gentle on my knee!) to firm and reduce my stomach and firm up my chest? Thanks!

your breasts to be very sore and tender and cause them to grow? My level was 26.6. My gyn said that was a little bit high (like 3 too high), but nothing to be too worried about. At the same time my FSH/LH levels were tested and they came back FSH-21.6/LH-73.1 when the normal is about FSH-10.2/LH-12.5 in the follicular phase (right after your period) and it was taken only 3 days after my period. My doc hasn't said anything since, and that was 2 months ago. (Been thinking about switching gyns/seeing an endocrinologist.) I'm going in Tuesday for a post-op checkup and wasn't sure if those two elevated levels could be related?

I usually run on the treadmill, but I hurt my knee while running on it yesterday, and it still hurts. Even though I HATE the elliptical machine, I'm willing to use it because it's bettern than not working out at all.....do you think it would be okay for me to use it with a knee injury??

I posted a question before about eating only 400 calories but I was just wondering if it really slows down your metabolism. I'll bump up the calories to 800. By eating 800 calories, how could I lose 6 pounds by May 19th? I know it's risky, but I'm pretty much itching to look good. People tell me I'm pretty but it's my stubbourn belly and legs that piss me off. If anyone has an idea, please help me. One pound is 3,500 calories, I how much would I have to burn per week to lose 3 pounds?
10, 500, right?Anywho, if someone knows how to help me out, I'd love you forever. This club party is gonna be packed with pretty, skinny girls; I wanna be one of them. If you can help me furthermore, please email me at Eurobarbiiex3@yahoo.com. If it helps, I have a gym membership, and a treadmill, an AB lounge, AB slide, and some weights. Thank you, everyone. I know you have better things to do, but at this point, I'm desperate(sounds pathetic; but it's true!) Have a great day, all.
