I would like to start going to the gym a few times a week. There are a number of gyms in my area. What should I look for in a gym? How much does a gym membership usually cost?

I am currently deployed and the dental work i can only get is basicly to help me not for looks. i know i have bad teeth, it sucks ive had to deal with it all my life but i want to change that.

i want to get Veneers the permanant kind that last 10 to 20 years. i just want to know the price for 6 maybe 8 teeth and can someone tell me the pro's and con's of having it done?

as far as the bottom's i would like to get braces but i dont know if my teeth can be helped anymore. can a DENTIST or orthodontist take a look at the picture and tell me if its still possible to straighten them? if so how long? and how much?

Has anyone ever heard of this? Someone told me to drink nothing but carrot juice for 3 days and you feel great and flush everything out.

I have been having alot of trouble with going to the bathroom (2). I don't know how to explain it, its not incontenence because, i don't have accidents. Its just that I can't feel when it is there to go. There is never any pressure, or just the normal "knowing you have to go" feeling. I haven't been regular in years since I started pain meds, but this is a fairly new issue. My surgery was almost 2 yrs ago.
I did start taking Methadone about 5mos ago, for pain, would that have anything to do with it? I asked my pain doc about it and he just looked at me, obviously didn't know what to say.
HELP please.

I just joined gym to lose some fats I've been accumulating around my waist. So I asked one of the trainers there about some exercises which will help reduce these excessive fats and she just muttered something like, "change your diet for that," and left. I didn't bother asking her anything else. Aren't there any exercise which will help me get rid of this flab? Please help!

I need lots of implants done and the cost is thousands. Do you think travelling overseas to Budapest to have it done much cheaper is a good idea.

I Googled 34B breast and they have pictures of women who have had breast implant surgery and all the women with a B have a bustline except for a couple but I think they're wrong. Which I have no bustline. My boobs are far apart. I'm either a 32 or 34A depending on if it's a good bra or not. And my right one looks a lil' bigger than the left one and I was thinking maybe I can fit into a B cup now. =/

Can my Husband have me locked up in looney bin for saying I want to kill myself? If I have told him this before cna he have me locked up? If I go to a clinic for help voluntary can they keep me until they say or can I check out whenever I want? I am just tired of trying to work things out. The more I do to prove to myself that I am of value the more I feel stupid, but I am accomplishing the work just feel not of any good or worth being here on earth. I just wonder if my husband has the ablility to have me locked up. should I have just kept it to myself? Does anyone else feel worhtless yet still very capable of doing just about anything you set your mind to? I am very intelligent. I was one of three in top of my graduating class back in 1997 and went to school for chemical eng but dropped out & that is when these feelings started. I did go back & get associate degree in business and am working & have 2 cute kids & married 5 years. I just feel useless & want the feelings to go.

Ok, my last period was July 21. I don't chart or temp but I have clear cervical mucus during ovulation. The mucus showed up on Aug. 4th. Hubby and I had sex during this time. My next period is due Aug.18th. I usually have brown spotting a few days before I have any "flow". So far, I haven't seen anything except once on Aug. 12th and that was on tp after I wiped. Nothing since then.

Here are my symptoms:

Pain in my sides and a tugging/stretching feeling in abdomen. It's been uncomfortable to lay on my sides at night.
Almost threw up a few times during meals.
Breasts feel fuller and heavier. Nipples have been a little sore and there is pain in the sides of them.
Gassy
Very hungry
Tired and sleepy
Yellowish discharge (never had that while waiting for AF)

My periods are usually pretty regular and w/o many pms symptoms. Normally it's just acne and horrible migraine.

Taken 3 HPT's since 11 DPO and they've all been negative. Anyone else have similar experiences?

I used to eat constantly but now i just like have stopped. i don't really have any desire to eat, especially when i'm around people. like when i'm at home and i'm alone i will just grabe a protien bar but when i'm out with people i just forget about my hunger and it will go away. and when i do eat in front of other people it makes me feel all sick and discusting. IT'S NOT AN EATING DISORDER because i don't think i'm fat or any thing and i don't want to diet, i just won't eat.
