Im usually a fairly healthy-eating person. I don't eat a lot of junk food, but once a week, Mom and I share a bag of chips while watching a Movie.

I'm not very active, the most exercise I get is probably 5-10 minutes of exercise on the rowing machine (an exercise machine) once a day.

I'm just wondering... Can I gain weight from eating a bag of lays potato chips with my mom once a week?

I have had TICS my whole life. Not severe. My eyes twitch and blink when I am nervous, upset, getting sick, or things that throw my body off. I have been wearing glasses for years and I really want to switch to contacts. Will my TICS interfere? And are there any tips tricks home remedies or over-the-counter meds that can help TICS? It is embarassing sometimes when people notice. Thanks.

I have Acuve contact lenses that are recommended to be changed once every two weeks and taken out each night before going to bed.

However, I've had my contacts in for at least four months, and do not even take them out to sleep, and I've had no real problems, other than the occasional fuzzy vision that is cured by a quick eye-rub.

What are the specific dangers of leaving contacts in too long?

This is a serious question. I'm 16 and I know that when girls go through their period they release blood from their vagina once a month. But how does it come out? Like once a day or something, does alot come out, and why do girls act like *****.es when they're on it. Specific details, and can girls have sexual intercourse when they're on it?

I know a woman who has had an extremely high blood sugar for 3-4 years (anywhere from 250 - 450) and did not take care of her diabetes. It led to her mental deterioration so much that now she can't do a simple math problem or can't remember or recall anything.
I was curious as to how her untreated diabetes had led to her mental deterioration.

I'm working on compiling a 'diet' (though not in the conventional "lose weight get rich" sorta way). Basically, I have three criteria:

a) Utter regularity and simplicity. As few ingredients as possible.
b) Extremely Low Cost, found in most grocery stores. As cheap, and nutritional, as possible.
c) Meets all nutritional requirements. In particular, I will be doing quite a bit of exercise (3hr swimming, 1-2hr taekwondo)

So far, I've got rice. I would include spaghetti, but it seems redundant. What else should I toss onto my simple list?

I've been taught that calories come from 3 places - carbs, protein and fat. However, if you look at the nutritional label on a bottle of vodka - it contains calories, but 0 carbs, 0 protein and 0 fat. So what gives alcohol it's calories?

I have myopia (nearsightedness). Is it possible to cure this myopia with exercises with the eyes. I have been doing some exercises about 3 times a month, and actually have had slim improvement. I recently had an exam from a ophthalmologist and my vision improved from -2.25 to -2.00. Was this just a fluke from the exam, or was it actually improvement on the eyes?
