i wanna do cheerleading really bad. im gonna go to cheer camp over the summer, but i cant tumble at all lol. im 149 pounds, im 13, and i dont look that great considering i run everyday around my neighborhood, and i do track. i have love handles and big thighs, and i HATE them. also its really sad because i love abercrombie but i look really bad in it. i have a pretty face i guess, but unfortunatly, guys care about bodies more than our faces. so this is the question: i really want to loose the lovehandles and the big thighs, and i dont know how. if anyone has ideas, please let me know. im desperate- and i mean it. im not like the other people on here that say PLEASE READ IM DESPERATE just to get attention. im drop-dead serious. thanks SO much in advace

xox, me =)

I noticed a little yellow spot on my eye this morning and started doing a little reaserch. Not sure if this is what I have but it looks like it. I will go to the doctor in a week or so to see if it changes. I do wear contacts but I am not sure if they can affect the Pinguecula.

I was thinking about stopping taking my pill today (which is almost the end of week 2 of my pack). I went to my obgyn yesterday and she prescribed me Yasmin (I am on Loestrin 24 fe) and told me to begin that after the next pill pack. I have been having terrible side effects with Loestrin 24 fe for the past six months--bloating, gas, depression/mood swings (because of my new apperance), swollen/tender breasts, and most importantly 10-15lb weight gain (despite valient effort to keep a lean diet and exercise 3-4 times a week). It's just that I want to start losing weight again, and another 2 weeks of being bloated and fat is depressing to think about. Would it be ok for me to stop taking my pill and then start again right after my would-be period? Or would that be a terrible idea? Thanks!

OKay I have this cousin that most of the time we touch each other I get a shock and so does she. When I assembling a computer (unplug, only the monitor is giving electicity) I am getting shock just by touching components while other people dont feel a thing. I say like, "Ouch! that sting!" and they touch the metal and they feel nothing...

So what am I a conductor or something?

Last year I hyper-extended my knee whenever I fell while skating. It wasn't too bad, but it sure hurt for about a week and a half, and I didn't have 100% motion. Then about one month later I fell on it again, this time my leg bent, my butt landed on my foot while my knee took the impact to the ground. Hurt like hell for another couple of days. As of late I've been riding my bicycle regularly, I haven't experienced any problems until I started to jog at the nearest track. I've only done 1 mile each time and it was only twice. But now my knee is like it was a year ago. It's ok to move with normal motion, but when I twist my leg it puts a lot of pressure on the outer side. If kneel all the way down it puts a lot of pressure between the femur and tibia. I've scheduled an appointment with an orthopedic surgeon, but it isn't for another two weeks. If the ACL or MCL is damaged, even from last year..... well, I;m freaking out here. Am I ever going to be able to run again?

Dr. Sam are you a real dentist? How do you have time to go online and answer these stupid questions? Do you dream of becoming a real dentist? I'm jealous of all your points because I only have zero. Please answer my question, if you don't I will automatically think that you are a fake dentist.

Here's the deal. I would love to lose weight but I never have the time. I have a 3 month old son, I have a job, and I go to school. I would love to lose weight but I can't seem to find the time to exercise. I tried before when I put my son down for a nap. However I can only get 5 minutes in before he wakes up. I have given up junk food and pop. However I don't always have the time to make healthy food. Its all so overwhelming. Any suggestions?

After taking NyQuil for a couple of months as a sleep aid, I mentioned in previous posts that when I ended it... I could no longer sleep at night. While taking it, I started getting sleep paralysis frequently etc. Anyway, I keep going back to it bc it's the only way I can sleep. If I stop altogether, how long do you think it will be before my sleep schedule gets back to normal?
