Health - 7 December 2007

I weigh 150 pounds and I am 5'6" and I'm only 13.

I exercise 3 times a week and run laps on Firdays. I don't eat bread, drink soda, or eat any sweets. I try eating the foods on the top ten things that burn calories, but nothings working for me.

What should I change in order to lose weight?

My cholesterol isn't super high. I don't need medication or anything, but my physician mentioned that it's high enough to consider preventative measures.

Being that I've been healthy too long to come to terms with these irritating sorts of problems, what action xcan I take, other than cutting excess cheese and fatty meats from my diet (and eating Cheerios in the morning- It says that is cuts cholesterol right on the box!!!)

I lost my pack of pills. I had only one more of the real pills left and a whole week of sugar pills. What should I do becuase I wasnt able to take the last real pill. Will that mess up my cycle?

I woke up with a small red patch that is near the opening of my vagina. It is sore and looks like dry skin. There are no bumps. Should I be worried or could it it just be irritated?

For the last few weeks i have been having dark, slightly heavy, stringy bleeding. The only thing is that i haven't had any pain until today. The last time I had sex was about 2 months ago and we didn't use a condom because I had been getting birth control shots. I know I need to go into the doctor to be absolutely sure but does anyone even think this could sound like a miscarriage?

Normally I love drinking beer but I just don´t feel like any. This is not good - I might start saving money, losing weight, and prolonging my life :-)

For the past month or so my husband has had "episodes" where he experiences aches, fatigue and generally feeling ill with a fever of about 100. This lasts 1 or maybe 2 days and he's back to normal again and totally better. Then about a week or two later, the same thing comes back again.

Today he came home feeling the same way again - that makes the 3rd time in less than 5 weeks.

He's been checked for mono and it was negative. He eats a balanced diet and is not under a lot of stress. What might be the problem, and why does this come and go?

I'm 16 years old, 5'4", about... 160 pounds =[ i know that's pretty bad. Winter just always makes me look like a snowman, but in the summer i lose weight, not much, but enough. I want to lose weight quick or at least at a good pace. I can't seem to stick to diets my mom places me on, I have heard so many ways to lose weight its crazy! I need something that i can commit to. Exercise is something I try to do in the summer a lot, but I have problems with my feet (arch is lower than most people) so i get tired easily. Should I exercise more often as much as I can take? Get a diet along with it? Help.

I'm looking for dieting/excercise tips to lose weight and increase muscle tone, specifically around my stomach and "love handles". I do crunches daily but this isn't enough i guess. Or I simply need to lose the fat before the muscle shows. help?

ok, so I am trying to find ways to lose weight. I know some people say that this is a normal weight but I still fill fat. It seems like everything I try doesn't work. For the last three months I have been eating 500 calories or less (I know that’s not very healthy) at first it seemed to work I went down from 190 to 155 and now my weight wont change. Anyway, I am 17 and I’m a girl.
