Years ago, Oprah, who used to smoke believe it or not, had a thing on her show where the audience quit with her. We did it smoking our usual one day, counting the cigarettes, and then the next day, just smoking one less. My sister did it too. She has never smoked again. I never made it past the daily limit of 5 and then I gave up.

I tried hypnosis, that didn't work.

I went to Mayo Clinic's Smoking Cessation Clinic where I was put on the patch and counseled. That worked until they took the patch off. I started smoking within 2 weeks.

I've tried the thing where you put a rubber band on your wrist and snap it when you want a cig. Thatonly left me with a red wrist.

I've tried the subliminal tapes. They put me to sleep but I smoked when I woke up.

So since tomarrow is National Smoke Out day, what do you suggest I do this time to quit?

Willpower is not an option. I have very very strong will power, I have done some amazing things, but this challenge is one I keep losing.

Not trying to be gross, just thought there might be something wrong with my digestive system. I don't eat corn a lot and noticed the kernels were imbedded in my stools, as if they weren't digested properly.

I was told not to wash the retainer in hot water, because it may warp. But I can't imagine having to remove my retainer everytime I go to places like Starbucks.

When you think you want to be loved... and someone says they love you and want a relationship with you...... and then you realise that you're completely messed up in the head and you don't want to be loved at all.

Has this ever happened to anyone else?

I got severely sunburnt from about 45 minutes in the water at the beach on Tuesday and I have had hundreds of small and some large blisters coming up all over my shoulders and back. I don't mind the pain too much, but these damn blisters are annoying me because I can't sling a bag over my shoulder or even wear some of my clothes. I have been applying Aloe Vera directly from a plant we have growing and have also been using a Sunburn moisturizer from the local pharmacy. Is there anything else I can do to get rid of these blisters quickly?

I just wanted to find this out for her. She says that she has been having kinda like sinus pressure in her head and also had a stiff neck. on the left side of her neck formed some sort of bump on the side but the bump is starting to go away. She says she feels a little better today but feels like she doesnt wanna eat anything and a little nausious, she also said she feels a little woozy now and then. Thing is she hates doctors cuz they scare her and if its not serious she doent wanna go through with that because shes afraid they will say there is something really bad that is wrong with her. She lost her mom of cancer and is very afraid something bad is going to happen to her. So any ideas on what might be wrong?

until after the holidays? Everyone in my family is telling me that it will be too hard to try to stay on a diet through Thanksgiving and Christmas. Maybe some of you have some tips on how to stay on track?

My husband is being relocated to VA and I will have to leave my job Dec 1st. After that, I will no longer have insurance. Does anyone know where the cheapest pharmacy (legit pharmacy) is to fill my Effexor XR prescription might be? Wal-Mart has given me generic for $80, but it doesn't work as well...

I recently have started to breaking out big time. I'm 28, I thought this was behind me. I have tried many things, including my latest, Zapzyt. It has not lived up to what it promised, not sure if I need to continue it longer to see results. I just need something that actually works to clear up a pimple. I know that nothing works overnight, but I would like something that eliminates the zits in a 3 or 4 days. I appreciated your help.
