I was 200 lbs before I got pregnant and gained 15 lbs from it, although I miscarried in a late stage. So now I weigh 215 and am 5'2" I wear a size 16 in juniors, and am 17 years old. I stopped drinking pop. But what else can I do to lose weight?

I'm 26 male, not overweight, 5'10" and weigh 172. My general physician says I have a stomach ulcer. She has me started on sample Nexium pills to ease it. If that doesn't work, I'm supposed to go back and get another prescription and if THAT doesn't work, an endoscopy. My diet is very bland or else I get sick. It is annoying but at the same time, exactly what I need. I feel healthier because I'm not eating all sweets. I never ate spicy food but I always ate chocolate alot as well as microwaved pizzas and hungry man dinners. That's for snacks sometimes though. Mostly, I eat cooked meals such as broiled chicken and potatoes with a vegetable. Same for steak, pork chops, lamb chops..basic stuff. I never load it with spices or anything. Just either regular shake N bake for chicken or pork and Emeril's regular seasoning for the others. Why the ulcer? How can my doctor REALLY know it is one? She hasn't seen inside me.....if it heals, will my diet be able to go back to normal but moderately?

it seems that they have more fears of unnecessary things and are unable to achieve their full potential and to the extreme, some self-terminate their life or self-destruction of their physical and mental state(cutting and unidentified cause of physical symptoms)

Last week I started a very rigourous workout schedule that I stuck to. Every other day I did Leslie Sansone's 4 mile walk, and on the off days I did her 1 mile walk, plus her firming video. I did that for 7 days straight, then starting this Monday I haven't done a single video, but also haven't been eating. Had a bad time in a custody battle and just havent felt up to even getting out of bed...but I'm also not eating. So far every day I've eaten a fat free pudding pack, plus either mashed potatos or refried beans (about a cup).

Should I be losing some weight like this? I know I need to eat more and move more, I did get up and take a shower today which was an improvment....but should any weight have been lost? I haven't put on 'real clothes' yet...im hoping theyre a bit loose when I do.

Last summer it was my first time going to China and Asia. I was in a tour group, everywhere I go theres a KFC. Its fast food 24/7 like the U.S. Anyways I look at their society, not many people are fat like over here in the U.S. Also when I came back from China I dropped 4 pounds, when I came back I gained it back and remained the same. So how come regardless of how many fast food restaurants they have, they are still able to maintain their weight?

Thanks for reading.

I had insurance at the time but not anymore. I tried to apply again for insurance but they put a rider on my policy saying that it awas a pre existing condition and they wouldn't cover it for a year. I had the surgery in September 2006. I applied to medicaid but they said I didn't qualify for medacaid because I don't have kids. I was supposed to go for a follow up in August but didn't go because I couldn't afford it. I'm in college and I work but I can't afford to pay for another surgey if something is wrong. Any advice on what I should do?

How And What We Eat = We Have Cosmic Energy Within Us and when this cosmic energy wares of so do we we know that energy is never created or destroyed but it can be weakend. So it is very important we eat to maintain our cosmic energy. At the age of 18 all members of the Kingdom Of Eli are reqiered to a vegetarain lifestyle eating one complete meal a day and required to fasting once a week. On your day of Fasting You May only Drink 7 cups of Water And Healthy Teas brewed with no sugar and they must be drink hot here are the teas you may drink on your once a week day of fasting Green Tea,White Tea,Black Tea. Now Drink 4 cups of water before your start you start to Drink your teas and four cups after to wash out the caffine we have in our bodies. Don’t Belive what the ignorant ones might tell you eat how I say eat you will never worry about Cancer,Diabeties, Heart Disease in your whole entire life.After your fast contine eating your one full complete meal a day. And Have nothing in between your meals. This is how they ate in the biblical days and they lived up to thousands of years. Eat how I Say Eat and never visit a doctor. Don’t belive what they say belive what I say everyone says you should eat 3 meals a day. Well I tell you only eat one our digistive systems can not keep digisting food when you fast you give your digistive system and stomach a break it will thank you. Don’t think on one meal a day and fasting once a week will be starving. There is a vast difference between fasting and starving. During the absence of food, the body will systematically cleanse itself of everything except vital tissue. It continually readjusts to make minimum demands on reserves. Starvation will occur only when the body is forced to use vital tissue to survive.

Ever since my friend lost his job several months ago, (he won't say why, but his boss told me he couldn't control his profanity in front of the customers) he has barricaded himself in his apartment.

The late and eviction notices are piling up on his door. He sneaks out occasionally only to get booze and junk food. He sounds very depressed. (I communicate by phone, which is the only way to reach him.)

He told me he had been taking anti-depressants, but stopped because they didn't work, and he can't afford them.

I keep recommending professional help, occasionally he agrees, but mostly he gets very agitated, screams at me for being a "traitor" and hangs up.

I used to hunt with him when we were younger, so he probably has firearms in his apartment. He's hinted that the day he becomes "homeless" will be his last day on Earth.

I'm really in a quandary about how to help him??

Ok, so I was having sex with my hand and some of my semen went into my eye. I guess it happened quick b/c I usually close my eyes as I begin to ejaculate. It's not the first time I've gotten myself in the face, but I've never had it go into my eye.

It's gotten red in one half of my eye. What do I do????

I've been wondering about what slimming centers actually do and if they really work. Are they better than exercising? I've been doing some jogging but I haven't lost any weight, though my butt is slightly smaller =)

So tomorrow is my first appointment in like 14 years is tomorrow after a horrid experience as a kid. I'm pretty confident that my mouth isn't TOO bad, aside from my major toothache. It happened out of the blue when I was eating jerky on a broken tooth that I got a few years ago (yeah, should have gone way sooner, I know.) My question is, will the dentist opt to pull/work on it tomorrow morning? I'm not sure if the tooth is abscessed or if it's just the nerve finally dying off. I don't THINK it's abscessed, as the pain differs from day to day, but I may be wrong. I'm trying not to research into it anymore, as reading about it being fatal is just causing me to get nervous.

Hey guys.
I smoked weed once in April, and four times in June.
Not all that much.
I was drug tested yesterday, December 11th, 2007.
I am in decent to good physical condition, involved in moderate excercise, drink plenty of fluids, and have never smoked marijuana any other times than those dates.
It has been almost six months even.
Do you guys think I will pass?

Ok, so I have been married for a little over five years. In the beginging of our relationship we had sex like crazy and it never hurt but over the past two years it has been pretty painful! It hurts a lot when he goes in and rubbing the "Vaginal walls" and it hurts if he goes in to odeep. Not to be gross. Or changing any positions. It is painful. I just always want it to end. It was never painful before. Now I hate it.

Please help and sorry I am being so specific!
