  • Like the other poster suggested, I recommend investing in a good quality knife. The most multi-purpose knife is probably a chef's knife. I believe mine is 8" long but look through the options at your local department/kitchen ware store and see what looks like it'll fit you better. It's also good to get what's called a…

  • Hello! My suggestion would be eating more protein and fiber, especially for breakfast. I don't know if along with feeling like you have no energy, you're also feeling hungry? Protein and fiber will help you feel more full though, as well as drinking plenty of water. Food with high-protein and fiber also should provide you…

  • Reading this thread immediately made me think of this song: "Thank God I'm Pretty" by Emilie Autumn. You can listen to it here if you like: http://youtu.be/axPe_p0OLcY The lyrics otherwise: "Thank God I'm pretty The occasional free drink I never asked for The occasional admission To a seedy little bar Invitation to a…

If you're not losing weight, there might be something wrong with your diet, your…

That's not good, because the more muscle you have, the more calories and fat your body…

  • Anti-depressants aren't the only drugs that do this. Anti-psychotics/convulsants can do the same thing. I was on Zyprexa at one point and gained 20 pounds...in a WEEK. Last year I was taking Abilify and gained almost 40 pounds over about 4 months. I haven't had any weight gain issues with any others drugs, and I've been on…

  • Of course doctor as you know. However, in my opinion, I don't think the overdose is related. As someone else said, it's more likely to be stress-related. If you think about it though, what would have been in what you overdosed on that would mess with the hormones that affect your period? I don't THINK there's anything, but…
