When somebody like throws a punch or trys to hit me I block and punch back without thinking. The only reason I know this was because my friend told me what went on after the guy was clinching his stomach. ( I'm in eight grade and could this be hormonale) I'm afraid I'm going to really hurt some body

Hey, I just turned 14 in March, and I play lots of sports, but I would like to lose about 5 pounds in 3 months because I abosolutely hate my love handles and thighs. I am by no means fat, and actually much of my weight is all muscle, so I was wondering how I could lose this weight to reduce those areas without looking unhealthy, because my stomache area is well toned and barely has any fat at all and I'm afraid losing five pounds might only come from there (because it sure ain't coming from my thighs, butt, or hips) and that wouldn't be good.. I've read that is is good to tone up the areas you want to lose wieght in, but I have already been toning those areas for years with intense basketball, and it's probably the sports that is making me look bulky, but I am just wondering what is the best way to go about this. I already have excluded soda, high fructse corn syrup, and all non organic foods out of my diet btw. Thanks.

Hi all,

My husband and I had sex about 3 times with condoms and none of them broke. I track my cycle and know my fertile window. After my fertile window closed my husband and I had sex 2 days later and he didn't pull out and we didn't use protection. I've started to exercise and take a diet pill. My sleep patterns have been all over the place. My periord started on the day it was supposed to but only lasted 1.5 days and was lighter than normal. My period usually lasts 5-6 days and is heavy. It's been a week and my period hasn't started back up. I've taken 2 pregnancy tests 3 days apart and both came out negative. But when I looked at the test I took today 2 HOURS after I had taken it, I could see a very faint portion of the positive line. It was the lower forth of the line, not the whole thing and it was really faint. I know the instructions say the test is not valid after 10 minutes, but I'm worried. The line wasn't there in the first 10 minutes. Should I worry? I'll retest soon.

This may sound wierd but for some reason, my husband wakes up everymorning and throws up. And i mean every morning. It's nothing but stomach acid, and he has bad heartburn all the time. I figured it would stop after a few days, but its been 2 months! He takes prilosec OTC, and sometimes Zantac, but nothing seems to help the heartburn. What could this be caused by, and would that be causing him to throw up every morning?

Okay I said to my mom

"Mom, you know I had my period well what if I go swimming and I have a pad on? Wouldn't it get a puffy aand stuff?"


Then she said when you are having your period and you swim you don't leak...is it true? Or do you think she just wants me not to wear a tampon?

Here's a quick breakdown of how I've been feeling lately.

- Constant fear of being judged by others

- Much quieter than I used to be
- Constantly feeling angry and hostile towards certain others.
- Frequent and extremely violent thoughts of harming certain others
- Sometimes feeling like I'm "going crazy" or feeling "f*cked up", for lack of better words.
- Feeling as if I wish everyone would just leave me alone
- Constant (and I mean CONSTANT) paranoia, ranging from what someone is thinking of me to if someone just broke into my house. The slightest of noises will trigger this intense paranoia.
- Compulsive washing and checking behaviors (I'm sure I have OCD)
- Feelings of anxiety and nervousness
- Feeling that in any given situation, the worst will happen.

Can anyone give me advice on what they think is wrong with me?

The family is going on vacation next week and I caught a cold. I want to get better but even if I can't I don't want to get anyone else sick. I've washed my hands everytime i've blown my nose, I cough on my sleeve, or into my hands which are washed after I cough, I've been taking cold medicine, and I use a napkin to pick up stuff like salt or ketchup at the dinner table. Is there anything else I could do?

I'm 16 5'9 and I weigh like around 240 pounds. When I tell people that they don't belive I weigh that much (they think I weigh like around 210), but the scale does not lie. I'm kinda bulky with a mix of fat. I'm on the football team. I know for sure thats helping out since were lifting weights and doing footwork before the season. I'm trying to do somethin a little extra out of football training like at home that will help me lose weight in the next 2 months or less. (Ab exercises, push-ups, etc) Something that does not involve in me buying some workout videos and stuff like that. Suggest me a routine, something that will get me motivated enough to stick with it.
Any Suggestions?
