Health - 4 September 2007

Ok, I am 16, 5'5 and 139 lbs. I know that that is 'middling' on the BMI scale (23.0) but I have a very fat, flabby belly and hips.
I also have a muffin top in jeans that actually fit me and very soft, flabby love handles. My thighs aren't exactly svelt, either. I was wondering if this had something to do with chest size too (I am a 36 D).
I just want a gerneral view and also at what point would you consider a girl 'fat'? thanks x

just wondering if it was possible to maintain a relatively 'healthy' diet that dosent have much vegetables, but quite a few fruits

I myself have quite a few different foods, i excersise regularly, i'm on my feet at work almost allday and go 4 runs every few days that are a few miles in length,however vegetables have never been a big thing with me,i have quite a variety of fruit though, such as bannanas, grapes, oranges, apples, blueberries etc-as far as veg is concerned, im very limited, usually lettuce on sandwiches, onions and occasionally carrots is as far as I go

i'm trying to keep everything in moderation though, for when I have chocolate i'll try to have other things that day that are relatively healthy to compensate, but with a diet that consists of the fruits i mentioned, would anyone be able to recommend some key veg, or if I need veg,I have quite a lot of meat in my diet too-5 a day' rule,I usually have atleast 4 of 5 a day, but its mostly fruit, do i NEED veg badly?

i read that most people who are overweight seem to be taller than people who aren't for example there are two people #1 and #2 well it said that #1 is taller cause they are overweight than #2

i don't think it's true but tell me what you think and explain your answer please!...thanks!

is there a way you can get a body scan to search for tumors. I'm curious and felt that sure would simplify things. It sure would be nice if every one could do that on a yearly basis. Wow, would that cut into the treating cancer costs.

It's probably crazy expensive, however.

i was very sad when companies started to ban it. It worked wonders for me. Is there any where that still manufactures it? are there any products that offer similar results.

I already watched Dane Cook but watching the same thing has lost its effectiveness. I am so depressed and I feel rejected because my dr hasn't returned my messages. I feel like he's giving up on me because I am hopeless and maybe he was only trying to be nice to me but he probably can't figure what to do with me.

that dognuts are bad for you? People think that they are a breakfast food but they are chalk full of sugar, transfat, etc.

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. And bran is probably the best substitute for anything else that you may be eating right now. Just a thought.

different colors come out of the water, and they have a chart of what that color represents eg. liver,kidney,nicotine,heart (problem)etc. A magnet(electric) is also dipped in the water, said to be made in germany or korea. Does it really detoxify? Or have you seen anything like it?

I haven't turned 14 yet but, my breasts developed fast. Now I'm a C cup and hope they won't develop any more. I've had some back pain. Mom said I have to get new bras, those kind of bras sometimes called "heavy duty: Much support and coverage, wide bandds and 4 hooks in the back. She says I have no choice, though I guess those bras suck. Mom wants to get me a bra like the one at this site

Tomororrow I'll have a bra fitting. I'll hate that bra, but mom keeps saying I need it, don't know if I can talk her out of it. Is she right? A bra like that sucks, doesn't it?
