The past few days i have been severely cutting my calories. I know people say 1-2 lbs a week is the max you should lose but why is it every one i talk to loses like 5 lbs a week? This past week ive lost 5lbs. I think people just say this because they are frustrated they cant lose the weight. What do you think?

I'm not fat at all, I have a fast metabolism, but it seems whenever there is food around I always start eating. And after I'm full, 3 hours later I'm starving again. It's usually a big problem when my dad hasen't gone to the store in a few days, when there barely any food in the house I'm starving like crazy, but when my dad buys food it just goes so fast.

Is there something wrong with me?

I was not feeling well earlier this week and went the doctor...during my exam, I experienced pain and tenderness in the lower right quadrant of my abdomen. To rule out appendicitis, I had a CT on my ab and pelvis. I should have the results Monday or Tuesday.

I have never heard of anyone needing surgery until they were in major pain; has this ever happened to you or anyone you know?

I have bad back problems, in the last year I have used the following meds for pain: all strengths of lortab, vicodin, & percocet. darvocet, demerol (sp?), morphine 30mg, oxycontin 40mg. then for muscle relaxers: valium 10mg, soma, robaxin (sp?), flexril (sp?), and skelaxin (sp?). So far oxycontin 40mg has worked the best, but it's still not anything great & super expensive...it's just better than the other painkillers ive tried. as far as muscle spasms Soma is the keeper, i'm happy eventhough my insurance wont even cover it. i've had issues with my insurance covering anything above percocet so im weary of trying expensive meds that i might be wasting hundreds of $ on. my Dr just recommended i try duragestic patch 50, vicodin for breakthrough pain and Soma. i am not familiar with the patch at all and am looking for info from people who have used it, not just the general info i've found on the 'net. I'd appreciate any help at all.

How can I avoind getting a leg cramp while I am asleep?

I've gotten them in the past, i think 2 or 3 times. And they hurt like you cant imagine! I've been drinking lots of water, and drinking a powerade(for potasium) before going to bed. I haven't gotten one yet but i can feel feel it in my calves a slight tension if you will which feels like it could cramp at any moment.

I'm 21 years old. I do suicidegirl shoots. I really can't have them. I have been slacking but now I am back to working out and eating sensible meals.
Is there a way to make the few I have look less noticed? The camera is real good at catching bad spots!

I am currently going through menopause and have been on an emotional roller coaster for the last 4 months. It is driving me and my poor hubby nuts. It feels uncontrolable and I work hard to keep it to myself as much as I can. I find myself upset at nothing and the really big stuff doesn't mean a thing to me. I guess I could compare it to being Bi-polar as there are very high highs and rock bottom lows. Any advise out there about maybe some suppliments I could be taking? I have lost 50 pounds in the last four months. I have been dieting to do it. I excersise a lot and try to eat the right things. But the emotional stuff is making my life hard. I can't take estrogen as I have had breast cancer about five years ago and estrogen was the trigger according to my doctors. My religion has helped me a lot but would like to hear from other gals who have had the same problems. I am not big on taking lots of meds. Thanks.

My boyfriend works from 10 pm- 7 am and i pick him up and drop him off. I also go see him on his lunch break at 2 am, leaving me with only 4 hours of sleep (at best). When I try to sleep during the day, I feel guilty, because i feel like i should be out and doing things. He sleeps during the day, so I dont really get to spend any time with him until his days off. I have been suffering depression lately, and his parents and everyone i have talked to say its because i am bored and sitting around the house all day. I am out of the job, and dont really do much at all. I really dont have many friends, so theres only his family that i can talk to. Being depressed makes me sleep all day, so when I wake up, I try to take St. John's Wort to stay positive. Its just not working.
So, my question is, Is there any specific routines or advice i can follow to help me out of this slump? Someone Please Help!

I've heard the warning repeated so many times, "Practice safe sex!!" but I don't think I've ever had anyone officially define the term.

So, what exactly is "safe sex?" I just started becoming sexually active last night, I'm in a completley monogamous relationship with my g/f who I've dated for 2 months, and she's taking the birth control pill. Would you classify this as safe sex?

Thanks
