Well, no sodas would be allowed, only water. I do realize that some stuff breaks down and turns to fat but I am not so worried about that. I just want to get my taste buds used to food that is low fat and I know that by restricting it I will like more foods (after awhile) that have less fat. I really need to have a better eating lifestyle and need to lose a bit of weight. Yes, I do exercise. I just want to know different opinions on what I should lower my fat content to and what is the allowed amount according to nutritional guidelines.

Ok, I know this sounds silly but I have this weird theory that wearing hairgel or maybe even hairspray or something stunts your growth.
I see alot of evidence like alot of teenagers who seem to wear hairgel or something of its sort seem to be rather short. Actually, like every teen who wears it at my school is sorta short...dunno why. Maybe it messes with people's genetics or growth somehow, I dunno?

any recommended SAFE brands that won't hurt you? lol

What is everyone elses opinion?

i am in twelth grade and still can't write. this may sound crazy but i just can't slow my mind down to focus on the letters so it seems like a continous scribble. is there anything that would cause an eighteen year old to be so out of focus and fidgety and hyper?

it's almost like a pimple. my doctor said not to worry about it, but i want it off. i try to get rid of it, i use a hot towel and a sterilized needle and try to get the stuff out that might be inside of it but it's really hard because it's right on the edge of the lid and i don't want to poke my eye with the needle either. it helps somewhat, but it still comes back. i've looked in drugstores for some product that may help but no luck. any ideas?

Wellbutrin did not work for me, it worked at first but then stopped. After upping my dosage, it just got worse.
So now I want to try something new. I was just wondering if anyone who was on Wellbutrin and got on something else and it ended up working better?
I know its a trial-and-error process with meds, but I just would like to hear some personal experiences.
Thanks.

My boyfriend has little tiny pimples on his penis. They aren't pus filled or anything like that, but they are little bumps. I asked him about it and he said that he was worried about them before so he got tested 2 months ago, and that the results were that he didn't have an STD or anything. He's only had 1 sex partner before. What are these bumps???

I've been doing a lot of jogging to slim up from winter and get ready for summer, and my legs look pretty great and are pretty firm. But I'm still jiggly and bigger than I want to be in my thighs and butt area. What sorts of exercises could I do to tone up this problem area? Would squats work, or would that just bulk up my thighs more?

My last period started April 27th and I started to bleed lightly on May 12th. It continued until today (May 14th), but it suddenly got heavy enough that I had to use a pad. I'm ovulating around this time, but it seems that my bleeding is too heavy to be ovulation bleeding.

I was sexually active from the time that my last period stopped and the light spotting began, and we always use condoms. I'm 20, and this has never happened to me before, so I'm really freaking out about this and wondering if I should go to a gynecologist. I probably will end up making an appointment, but I'd just like a little insight on what this could be. Is it possible that my period came this early? I don't have any of the usualy menstruation symptoms (sore breasts, cramps, etc).

Thanks in advance.

I had a baby a year ago and tried to loose the weight, you name it and I tried it. It wasn't this hard to loose it after my first one, but she is also 8.
Nothing has worked really well so far so I stopped it all and cut my calories, starting walking and use the body bands, as I have seen a little difference, but not enough for me to be really happy. The worst is my tummy and then a little roll on my back I would really like to get rid of. Now, when I tighten my muscles you can really feel them, but I cannot get rid off the loose skin and fat in those 2 areas.... any suggestions?
