Health - 14 November 2007

To explain further, I am dieting, I am eating mostly salads, veggies, beans, rice and fruit. I drink water, tea without sugar, and diet drinks once in a while. I am not consuming foods that the restrictions do not allow for, but I get hungry more often, and I get grumpy when I can't eat. I can't eat at work unless it's lunchtime. I wait until I get home to have dinner, and the temptations to eat afterwards, I fight them with carrots or water. But I am so tired of salads and carrots - help me to keep up hope and not break down and eat a Snickers!

I read from somewhere that as a beginner, I should do two arm exercises, two shoulder exercises and two leg exercises.. I'm going to include chest as well.

Anyway, I was thinking maybe I should do this:

*10 reps for arms and shoulders (3 sets) - rest in between sets 1 min.
*10 reps for legs and thighs (3 sets) - rest in between sets 1 min.

Is it ok for me to exercise arms, shoulders, torso and legs all on the same day (with 3 sets on each)? Or should I only do one part of my body each day (for example, I exercise arms and shoulders on Monday, rest on Tuesday, then exercise the chest and legs on Wednesday)? Which one is recommended? Thanks for your help.

Just curious.. Is it the looks of the girl, gestures, or just the general idea of it?

Alright, I'm not entirely sure where this goes, but Yahoo Answers shunted it into the 'Health' category, and as I have no better suggestions, I'll stick with that.

I wonder if anyone has any experience with drinking menstrual blood, and if it is in fact....pleasant. My boyfriend suggested it, and expressed the view: 'I like the taste of blood. I like to go down on you. Tasting blood and going down on you is pure funk.' Which seems hopelessly uninformed.

So, what I'd like to know:
is it in fact... enjoyable, or indeed tolerable... for the giver, in terms of taste/smell etc.?
and
are there any health risks?

It would be nice to get answers from someone who's tried it, but even if you haven't, feel free to contribute something bar "ewwww....gross."

Can you guys please post the different supplements you stack that have honestly given you good results? I would like to put on about 20 pounds of muscle...and being a bit skinny...its very hard for me.

Other than protein, what are some other supplements that stack very well and produce strong results?

I was on it a couple of years ago, and I couldn't take it, it would make me completely lethargic to the point where I couldn't even move. I stopped taking it after like a week or two, but now I have to go to an outpatient facility and I'm afraid they're going to give it to me again, or something similar. Is it supposed to do that to you? My doctor never officially diagnosed me when I went a couple of years ago, so I don't know what the reason for giving me Abilify could be. I really don't want to take it, but I want to be cooperative with the facility, as it will affect my job. Any advice? Thanks!

I'm just trying to eat healthy, I'm not going on a "diet" but I'm just trying to watch what I eat and eat healthier. On average it seems like I consume around 1600 caleries, 220 g carbs and 56 g of fat. I want to know if it's more important to watch my carb intake or my fat intake. I excersise about 30 minutes a day.

I am 22 and I have 3 wisdom teeth that are fully in and don’t bother me at all. My husband has heard some horror stories about what effects wisdom teeth can have if I don’t get them out. Like sinus problems and headaches. Is that true that they could cause problems if I don’t get them taken out?

Hi,

After having a few hiccups with the combined pill, I decided to go on the contraceptive injection (at 18). My mum has been having this for as long as I can remember. I talked it through with her and it sounded like it would be the best option for me. To date Ive had 3 doses of Depo. I knew it would take a while, and a few doses for my periods to stop. My periods has continued, but rather than being seperate periods, I just sort of have random bleeding that can occur at any time. This i beleive is normal (that at first the hormones make your body go abit haywire) so I was completely expecting this. The thing that is puzzling me however is..when me and my boyfriend have sex, bleeding usually occurs (quite a lot), at first we were both a bit freaked out and confused to what it could be, because I wasnt experiencing any pain. Then I had a thought, its probably the injection. But Im not sure.. I was never told anything about this.. So could it be the depo injections causing this? :)

I don't usually crave chocolate, just had a period last week ( was half the amount & half the time as a usual period). Didn't have horrible cramps either, which is a new one. Cravings started AFTER my period...been a little irritable, and depressed lately too.

What I feel when I'm going through this is fear stricken, panic, scared, and overwhelmed. Its really effecting my life where I'm scared to do things that I HAVE to do. I would rather just sit at home where nothing worries me there until I think about do what I have to do like school. I just get so stressed and worried that its prohibiting my learning and my life. PLEASE HELP I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. thank you

I went to the doctor and got all kinds of tests and everything... all normal. And I really dont want to take medication for migraines. I hate taking medications... especially since they usually cause something else to go wrong. So what are some natural things to help with migraines?
