Hey all - so this story just came out today (read story below) - it was in all the papers. Do you think that I can just shake my body for 15 minutes a day- I dont have a vibrating floor... what do you all think?? How should I shake my body? Do I have to do it for 15 minutes straight or can i break it up?? Has anyone ever tried this? All feedback will be appreciated!

"A Maine researcher says standing on a vibrating platform for 15 minutes a day could help people achieve washboard abs.

Clifford Rosen from The Jackson Laboratory and Maine Medical Center Research Institute says his study put mice on a vibrating platform for 15 minutes a day for 15 weeks.

He says the mice developed 27 percent fewer abdominal fat cells and saw other benefits, including reduced triglycerides in the liver.

The mice didn't lose weight but Rosen says it appears that the vibrations changed fat distribution in a beneficial way."

I'm attempting to research additional information online, and through local doctors, but does anyone know the cost of a mammogram? A fine needle aspiration biopsy? A core needle vacuum biopsy? Each chemotherapy treatment? I need figures and facts, and am compiling a fact sheet from it.

Since Monday my boyfriends feces is kind of a yellowish, cream color. It has never been like this before. But he has changed alot of his eating habits. On Sunday he started eating a lot of cheese, mayo, and switched his soda that he drinks. I asked him if he felt sick, nausea, cramps, and symptoms and he feels just fine.
Could this be why or is there something else going on.

Hi everyone,

It's been 6 days now since I had 2 impacted wisdom teeth removed on my lower jaw. My jaw is still very stiff and slightly sore. At night, the pain seems much worse. I'm taking ibuprofen to control it. I can't open my mouth very wide at all - maybe about an inch, and then my jaw resists and opening becomes painful.

I'm just wondering if this is all pretty normal stuff, even 6 days after surgery? I've known a few people who have had the procedure and they fully recovered within 3-4 days. I have a one week follow-up with my oral surgeon tomorrow, but I'm just wondering what other people's experiences have been.

Thanks.

I have come to the conclusion that I can't lose the weight on my own and need Nutrisystem.

I exercise 3 times a week, run & hike for 3 hours at a time, but I still am not making a dent on my 250 pounds gut!

I do eat unhealthy... 1 large meal a day and it's not healthy food.

So I definately need structure and discipline and I think a diet program like Nutrisystem would give that to me.

So any familiar with Nutrisystem could tell me if this program works? I am a little weary because I've heard so many complaints that their food tastes horrible.

Are there other diets that are cheaper and with tastier food?

My goal is to lose 100 pounds within 6 months.

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!

Is it because it is sexier to have breast cancer than say, colon cancer or lung cancer?

Hi..this is question is entirely directed to the girls here. During your periods, have you ever had big blood clots coming along with the blood?? What are those clots? Something to do with the shredding of the uterus lining? Im just concerned so thought of raising this question here.

For all those who think its not ethical for me to have posted this question, I m sorry. Had to know about it urgently. Thanks.

They always say "results not typical" when they are talking about a member's weight loss success. Approximately what percentage of people who join such organizations manage to stick to the plan and lose a significant amount of weight?

My 20 month old daughter has a chest cold for which her pediatrician prescribed an oral liquid antibiotic. Turns out the pharmacist typed the wrong dosing instructions on the label, and she was getting twice as much per dose as the doctor recommended. The pharmacy admits it was their error, so for about 4 days, my daughter has been getting a double dose of antibiotic.

What should I be looking for in terms of symptoms that may indicate she is being negatively affected by the over-dosing? I don't want to make a big deal of it if there is no harm done to my daughter. People are human and make mistakes.

I want to lose weight, and i know eating 6 times a day will boost my metabolism. Now my question is, how many calories should i eat in total a day? I was thinking doing a 1500 calories devided by 6 a day? Also what should i eat? I know eating lean meat and veggies are ok but i want to know specific things. Like 6 meal Example diet.

I heard Bread is bad? Plus can i eat cookies? One cookie is like 50 calories, and if i eat 300 calories a meal i can eat like 6 cookies and 2 hours after that eat other things. Its still 6 times so it wouldnt hurt right on ocassions?

Well thats basicly it i want to boost my metabolism. And Loose Weight.

Hi, does anyone know any hair loss treatments that actuallywork.

My hair has been thinning over last 15 years or so, I am 40 now, and is becoming noticeable. I am not interested in a hair transplant or buying any silly old product advertised. But before I shave it all off and become a proud baldie, at least thought I'd see if any one had tried anything with some success.
