Health - 24 December 2007

Has anyone ever eaten just 900-1,000 calories a day? How long did it take you to lose weight? If I were to keep this up for about a month or longer (no alcohol, no soda, some sweets if I break down) how much weight do you think one would lose?

It takes for me about 2-10 minutes, depends on how fast or slow we're going.

hence..... alcohol, past, low esteem, drugs, sex, etc? is this just a cover up that some one can fake?

Not everyone in the world is truthfull so is this a mask they are hiding behind?

Because you are already ovulating and can the change in weather do it too or anything? Im a bit late on my period but Im negative on two pregnancy tests, Ive been stressing a lot though so that could be it too, I just started my period about 4 months ago (I was off it for 2 and a half years due to my eating disorder untli I finally gained some extra weight back) if not any of that, what else could delay your period?

hmm.. if a man has hiv, of course the virus would be transmitted from his semen to a woman right? but if a woman has hiv, how she transmit the virus to an un-infected man since i thought the man does not "receive" anything from the woman?

if the woman's vaginal fluid has the virus, is it mean if your penis touch the fluid then you would be infected? (even though if you don't ejaculate inside her vagina). What if a man's finger touch the fluid, then his finger touch his own penis, will the man be infected too?

My back has been hurting since i woke up this morning until now which is 5 ish. Wondering if anyone knows anything to help me. I don't have any back problems and it doesn't happen often im thinking i slept on it wrong but i have taken aspirin and it not helping. so yeah i don't know what wrong. The best way to describe it feels like i almost have sunburn. I pretty much had no voice yesterday but today it come back for the most part. i don't think that would affect it but i figure i throw it out there.
Any advice would be great. considering that doctors will be close tomorrow because of Christmas!

my partner and i have been having sex for 2 months, and we are yet to find a position that's pleasurable for us both at the same time. we've both had an orgasm, but never in the same time having sex. he gets one when i'm ontop, i get one when he's ontop.

Does anyone know any tried and tested position(s) that induces orgasms for both partners at the same time?

i know we have plenty of time to practise and find out for ourselves, but its always good to have one to fall back on!

Thanks and Merry Xmas! x

Is it safe to work my abs every single day? Or should I work them out every other day? I really need to lose my extra belly fat. I know it's possible to get a flat stomach since I've done it before, but I don't want to hurt myself either. Thanks in advance.

It's been going on for a few weeks now. The first little while I would get sharp shooting pains in my lower right abdomen, then it would go away and just ache for a little while. Then I got woken up a few days ago by sharp shooting pains in my upper left abdomen. That also went away in a few seconds and then just ached. Today I woke up with aching in my upper right abdomen. I'm wondering if its pain that could be radiating from somewhere else? I'm really worried.

Do any of you check the nutrition facts on the things you eat, for trans fat? If so do you decide not to get it because it has trans fat?

Life is really Hell on Earth at home. It's a very unhealthy environment and I am extremely depressed here. I just want to get away and enjoy life. I have three jobs as a lifeguard and work many hours. If I left, I'd let down my employers and I'd feel so bad. I have no friends here however, and I'm really lonely. It's mostly because since their were a lot of family problems, I've only been able to go to night school. I just want to pack my things up and move to Florida. It's my dream to become a scuba instructor. Do I follow the dream or do I Stick to the practical? It's such a huge decision, and honestly I'm so scared. The urge to leave is so great I'll pack and unpack atleast once a week. This may sound ignorant, but I have no drive to even graduate at this moment. I can just get a G.E.D anywhere. Any advice? Has anyone else moved out without graduating? I know most people regret it..
