My school's starting in 3 weeks and I want to try and get in shape in that 3 weeks. I'm not in need of losing weight but I would like to get stronger. Can someone tell me what I should do? I'm 13, 5'1, and 100 lbs.

How many minutes should I run each day? How many pushups or sits up should I do? Should I lift some weights? I sorta want to get my cardiovascular improved by running. Would sprinting help? What should I eat?? I usually eat rice everyday with some vegetables and meat and soup. Does stretching help tone muscles?

Thanks for your help!!

Lots of questions...o_O

Okay, I have it set on my mind that I suffer from insomnia because I can't sleep at nighttime, and i've tried almost everything.

But in the mornings, the less sleep I get...the more awake I feel the next day.

And the more sleep I get, the more tired I am when I wake up.

Does anyone know how to explain this?

I'm going to college next year and I fear that I won't be able to stay fit or eat healthy because I have a bad knack for pigging out on junk food. It really takes a toll on me, however, because I end up feeling sluggish and zapped of energy the next day. Does anyone have any good tips on how I can get exercise and eat right so I won't gain the freshman 15, or worse...the freshman 50??

I am 16 years old and weigh around 118. I eat all the time and don't gain any weight. I passout about once every semester. My heart sometimes races when I am not even doing anything (like going to sleep). I day dream a lot during school and have a hard time concentrating and always procrastinate. I do have anxiety problems and have noticing more and more headaches than before I started passing out. I do eat junk food during snacks and sometimes fruit. For meals I eat pretty healthy (spaghetti, meat, etc...). People always say I am really skinny, but I eat more than them. Do I have low blood sugar and what other symptoms or ways would I know?

my mother underwent a double masectomy and had the lymphnodes on her right side removed. the cemotherapy and radiation burnt her skin badly. when she began treatment for reconstruction they implanted bladders in her chest to slowly streatch the skin and of course it was very umcomfortable even painful. she has had trouble lifting her arms above her head and moving heavier objects around the house. will that problem get better, worse or stay the same after her surgey? I know it is impossible to say for sure, but anything you have to say would be appreciated, hopefully from those of you who have experience with this subject.
