I have gone fishishing several times and used shrimp. My face broke all out and was itchy. It would be red so my mom first insisted that we use tea with viniger and it would help for a while. The thing is only my face would break out. I was given prednizone(think that's how it's spelled) but the doctors didn't know what it was. They just thought I was allergic to it. Is it something in the shrimp that can break your face out? I look it up in the home remedies book we have around our house but it showed that millk was more likely to break your face out than shrimp. Please help.

I need to take in 4,000-6,000 calories a day to gain weight. I am medium build and accoding to the BMI am normal weight for my height.

But I am muscular like Buce Lee so I appear somewhat skinny. I work ft and go to school ft and don't have as much time to eat or workout. I have protein powders and calorie powders but they get very expensive.

What can I eat in three meals a day to take in 4,000-6,000 calories?

At night I wake up about 5 times because the hip that I am sleeping on is really sore. I usually just flip over to the other side but soon i wake up again only to find that my other hip is aching too. The pain is more inside my hip rather than on the out side. Im not over weight. What could be causing this?

I just read that cleaning up your kidneys and liver helps to reduce BO and sweating. I was wondering if there was a connection because I have had a sweat problem for about a year, and a chronic kidney infection since february.

I am currently wearing hard lenses but my eye doctor said that I could use soft lenses if I want. So I heard about these new circle lenses that I can order from Korea from circlelens2u.com and I was thinking about getting them mainly because I want bigger eyes. Anyone who has used these lenses or have heard anything about them, are they safe? I plan on not wearing them all the time.

My brother bought me a book a few months ago. At first it was really great, but then it got bad. Really bad. There was a part where a girl was forced to have intercourse with a dragon. Ever since I was traumatized, my subcoinscious keeps trying to tell me that I like beastiality, and I should try it. I'm going crazy because of that book. I do NOT like beastiality. I need the memory of the book to go away. I know it will gradually fade, but is there anything else I can do to make it go away faster?

1) 94% of men lie about their penis size.
According to condom manufacturers, only 6% of men need to use extra large condoms.

2) The average man is 4-5 inches long when erect; no matter what you have heard ladies, that's the truth. Incidentally the average vaginal capactity is only 6 inches, for you women who think you can handle king dong.

3) 80% of American men are circumsized, though Pediatrics say it is not necessary.

4) No matter what all the ads say nothing but time can make your penis grow. (most men reach the end of their growth by the early 20's)

5) Only 16% of men shave their privates.

I hate cooking after coming home from work. I need quick, but healthy low carb ideas. I can't afford expensive meals either. Is there anything like low $$, low carb meals?

1) It is a good workout. Sex burns about 150 calories every half an hour. It will lower your cholesterol and improve breathing circulation.

2) You won't get sick. According to research if you have sex 1-2 times a week. You are less likely to get sick.

3) You'll feel happier. You will feel a greater sense of well-being.
Women who have more sex were clinically proven to be less depressed than women who dont have sex.

4) Makes you look better; problem is that ugly people don`t get any. Sex releases hormones which make your skin and hair softer and shinier and tone your physique.

5) The best reason: You will live longer. Studies prove that sex makes you live longer. Men who had sex 1-2 times a week, had half the death rate as those who did not indulge themselves at least once a month. It also makes you look younger. If you have sex 3 times a week you may look up to10 years younger than you really are.
