Like say someone ate 1200 calories a day but only ate food high in sugar and carbs, would they still lose the same amount of weight they would as if they ate healthy stuff?

i have to wake up at 5am every morning to go to school. i eat breakfast around 6am. the thing is, as we drive to school i get horrible stomach pains and feel nausious and the pain wraps around to my back. about two hours later, it goes away. at night i can not sleep (i go to bed at 10 and it isnt until around 2 that i actually fall asleep) so i go on 3 hrs of sleep. around 8pm the stomach pains start up again continuing into my back.

i dont know what to do. my grades are dropping and i dont know what do do. my grandma (who has like 20 medical books and three cabenets full of vitamin bottles in her kitchen) told me to take potassium. she said it would help with the sleep because i am only sixteen and too young according to my doctor to take any sleep aids like lunesta or meletona so my grandma suggested potassium for sleeping and ginger for the stomach aches.

i just want this to stop. this is my jr year and my grades are falling. what should i do? will these things help??

My friend plays soccer but recently has lost 7-10 pounds due to her meditation.
She never eats at lunch and always throws up after running or doing physical activity.

Does that seem healthy?

There are people asking serious questions about medications, child care and hurting themselves. If they are serious questions, why do they turn to "Answers" when they should be seeking professional help?

I was at a pool recently and saw a group of about 6 mothers and kids who were "chicken fighting". I think it was a family, cousins, aunts...and the kids were about 9 or 10, mainly boys. After a while of the kids fighting on the mom's shoulders, one of the ladies laughed and said that it was their turn now. It was a joke, but they started trying it. I was amazed how many of the kids could actually lift the women on their shoulders! Most of the women were at least twice the size of the kids, but some of the kids could lift most of the women. There was a girl who could not lift anyone, and one heavier woman who nobody could lift, but overall, it was very surprising. It seemed that a couple of the shorter kids actually had more luck! The kids did not look to be unusually big, and the women were not particularly thin, except for one.
Is this unusual for kids to be able to do this? Did I see something amazing, or does this happen often?

u kno how people can picture their life like years from now. i'm in my late 20's just graduate college and i try to picture my life and i swear i draw a blank. i can't see myself! I don't have an urge to have kids like most women do and I don't see MY future and I don't "feel" a future for me like others do. maybe I don't see a future b/c I'm not gonna have one, could that be? does this mean i'm gonna die young?? I say that cuz some celebrities that died -- it's been said they "knew" they weren't going to get old and die - they were gonna check out before their time. how do I know this isn't me too - i'm worried.

My husband was playing with my daughter on a pair of power boots "Springy stilts" and after only 3 minutes he fell and broke both his arms and dislocated his wrist.
What avoidable injuries have you suffered. Although i'm the one suffering i can tell you.

I had a horrible experience at the Gyn. office the time I went for my first pelvic exam. The experience was so horrible, that i have refused to go for this year's exam. My mother, friends and sisters are telling me that I need to go, especially since my fiance and I are thinking about getting pregnant soon after the wedding. I know I have to go b/c
1. I'm due for my annual pelvic exam and
2. I need to figure out what I have to work on to ensure a healthy pregnancy.
But I have no idea how to go about finding a doctor! I tried using the search tool on my insurance's webpage, but it was useless. And the Dr. that the women in my family go to is pretty old. I want to find a doctor that I can feel comfortable with and that I know will be there to deliver all the children that God gives me. Additionally, most of my girlfriends go to random doctors for their annual exams and none have children. What do I do??
