if you think like one (just want to starve, never want to eat again, think about food 24/7) are you considered an anorexic?? even if you don't weigh like one?

or is there another term used to someone who thinks like an anorexic yet is average weight? (and still eats 1200-1500 calories)

I went to donate plasma today and I was denied. I have g. herpes and I read up on some plasma centers and they said it was ok as long as there were no active lesions, which i have none as of now . The bozo "physician" said it could be transmitted through blood. I disagreed. WHO is right? If you have herpes you can donate blood, I read something from the American Red Cross. So what's the difference? thanks !

I'm 5'9" and I weigh 155 (It seems like a lot but i'm not over weight especially for my height...my bmi is perfect) I'm pretty much happy with my body except for a little extra tummy bulge. Is there any excersizes I can do to help get rid of that? I'm on a healthy diet and I swim almost every day...could that help get rid of it?
Thanks!

I usually have some very very light on-and-off bleeding for about five days prior to my period, then 3 days of heavy bleeding, and a couple days of tapering off afterwards. I count my period as starting when the flow is heavy and consistent. Is that accurate?

I have problems with depression, anxiety, paranoia, and I always try to isolate myself from people. I'm always freaking out if people look at me...I think they are plotting against me. This is no way to live.

Well, I just woke up and my mom told me that my cousin died this morning from a heart attack. I know who he was, I just did not know him a lot. He stopped by like 1-2 times a month, but he was really close to my mom. Anyway, all last night I felt like something bad was going to happen, because I was zoned out, and something always happens when I am zoned out. How can people know that something is going to happen before hand?? Do you think its just a gut feeling, or predicting the future?? I do not know, I am just trying to figure it out.

No sugar, no high and low blood pressure, no cholesterol. Absolutely healthy. now all of a sudden a friend comes and tell me how alcohol intake is healthy and can keep us healthy if taken regular and 1.5 peg a day. I just want to know how much is truth behind it.

there is nothing to live for! I will admit firstly that i suffer with depression, i see a counsellor, who is off at the moment and i have been attending my doctor weekly but i don't live, i just exisit, i try to eat ok, sleep the right amount, get myself out of the house to do normal things but everything seems pointless. I know it's probably just a bad day for me. My doc said to ring during the week if things were too hard to cope with, but sure what could she do except put me in hospital, for fear of self harm?
I don't know what my question is but i know there's many people here that suffer with depression, do you have any words of wisdom??

I have rang the samaritans, text and email them. i cannot ring often as i am not home alone and confiding in family is not an option.

thanks. please don't answer insensitively, is it really worth hurting people's feelings for the sake of 2 points?

I am trying to find out if fat in food is stored as fat in the body? I know that sugar once metabolized if not burned can turn into fat. But if fat is metabolized does it still turn into fat or does it pass?

I got a beautiful watch from my guy for Christmas. I've worn it every day, but I do take it off for sleeping at night and showers. Suddenly I am getting a rash under the band (after 6 months). I've had the rash before, I know that it is an allergic reaction to the metal in the bracelet, but why now? Why wasn't I allergic right away?

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to make it stop (I don't really want to put a different band on it if I don't have to).

I drink a lot of beer. Every night which I know is awful...Could anyone tell me if that's one of the reasons I'm having trouble getting the weight off. I walk and excercise daily. I'm eating pretty good. It's all just so frustrating!

I also wanted to add - FREE. What motivated me to post this question was that I saw 'Sicko', Michael Moore's new movie last night. Although, he does go to the edge he made some great points.

I am wondering what would it take to get Healthcare equivalent to France or the UK here in the States?

It seems it would not be easy, but there has to be a glimmer of hope!

Thanks all.
