I have a huge double paned bay window in my bedroom. First thing I noticed when we moved in was the plastic blinds were melted & charred. the landlord said that he needed to get metal blinds because the window magnifies the sun. Because there is a street light right outside my bedroom I put a blanket up over it to sleep at night. The blanket is not that heavy, maybe 5 pounds at most that is hanging from the ceiling so there is no weight on the window frame A few months ago I noticed a large crack going up the window. I called my landlord & at first he said it was the weight of the blanket that cracked the window. I told him it wasnt hanging from the window but it was hanging from the ceiling. He called me back a few days later & said it was because there was heat trapped in between the blanket & the window. keep in mind this was middle of winter so there was no heat coming into the window. Now there is 3 huge cracks all coming from the same spot on the bottom of the window & a chunk of glass is wanting to fall out. Now he is expecting me to pay the 950.00 to replace the window because the heat trapped in the blanket is what broke it.

I am trying to eat healthy & exercise daily. I really want to change my lifestyle. Tonight I messed up & ate some pizza rolls & reese’s peices. If this causes me to gain weight, will I see the results in the morning, or will it take longer to see a difference on the scale?

I know it’s not a popular problem since most people want to lose weight but I recently lost 30 pounds (unintentionally) & now have to put it back on which for me seems like a monumental problem! Does anyone know the best/fastest way to put the pounds on. I am trying to eat things with high calorie content.

After I gave birth to my daughter I lost all of the weight that I had gained from the pregnancy but than once I got back on the pill I gained 10lbs & I can’t get rid of it. I eat healthy exercise 30 minutes daily & when it is nice out I walk. The only thing I can think of to cause this is the pills. Any one else have this problem or know of any thing that can help me. Thanks in advance!

I’ve been told that if you don’t get enough sleep, you can put weight on, so if you want to loose weight you have to sleep enough. Also I was told stress makes you put weight on also? So it isn’t just food?

So I am trying to build muscle mass within 6-7 months or faster. I have been lifting weights fir 2 1/2 years or more & all I have been doing is conditioning my muscles & not putting a lot of growth in them. I am 5′5 & I way 135 lbs & I am 19 years old turning 20 in may. I am wanting to weight 150lbs. I am taking protein after workouts( whey protein) & I am eating a lot more now that I am on my goal to gaining mass. I am eating oatmeal for breakfast & then i will have a bowl of cheerios after I eat that & ill sometimes throw in a banana with that & a protein shake. Then I will go to the gym & do a workout that morning, then come home drink another protein shake & then Ill eat at lunch time a tuna fish sandwich 100% whole wheat bread, & ill eat a pb&j sometimes with that. Then I go to work & Ill eat a snack 3 hours later like an apple or yogurt or something just to keep my metabolism going. Then I go home & eat dinner like fish with veggies & potato or rice. Now is this a good plan. I am eating some more stuff but it is too much to write. I am noticing the weight gain a little bit, but its more chub than mass. Will the fat show first & then it will turn into mass? I used to have a perfectly flat stomach & now its round but my six pack still shows when I flex, it just seems that the fat is being pushed from the inside of my stomach & very little fat shows on the outside. Its like im bloated but then again i am not. Im just wanting some good advise on building mass than cutting up after. If you know how let me know please. Oh yeah & sometimes i will eat cheerios before bed just to gain more weight.

I want to go on the pill cos i have bad period pains but ive heard it makes you put on weight, is this true?

Hi, I’m 14yrs old, 4′11 & weigh 88lbs right now. I’ve been trying desperatly to gain some weight. Idealy, I want to be around 114lbs. iIam underweight. My doctor told me that I’m supposed to weight 114lbs. So far I am having alot of trouble gaining that extra weight. Is there anyone who could tell me how I might go about this in a healthy way? I also want to find out what type of strength exercises I could do to keep my body toned after I have reached the weight I want. I should probably mention that the reason I am trying to gain extra weight is the fact that I would like to add curves to my body. Although I am a fairly small girl I will admit that my weight is proportional to my height. I do however have an A-cup chest & am trying to gain weight to increase my size. I’m aware that this may not work but while I’m still young I may as well see what kind of results I get. I’m trying to find jeans that r my size but they fit me 2 loose. has any tips for me please let me know.

For losing weight, try physical contact sports or better still, long distant running. Eg. 5-10km run. Minimum 2-3 times a week. Depend on how much weight you need to reduce. Take FAT BURNER will give you faster effect with execise.
For abs, do alot of sit-ups & crunchers. Try doing in-between tv & advertisement. Help you to take your mind off. Doing between 60 per set is a good start. Impose a steeper angle as your progress to can maximum effect.
If you have the budget, get those electro pads that can stimulate your ads with exercise. Faster & better toning to the muscle .

I have been using weights since about 12 & a half. I am now one month away from my 15th birthday. Before 12 years old i had been growing at a fairly fast rate & i was taller than average. However after i started using weights i have hardly grown at all. At the most 2 cm. I am now 5 ft 6 & all my friends tower over me (they are around 5 ft 10 – 6ft ). I am below average for my year at school. Everyone tells me i havn’t grown because of weight lifting. Does it really affect your growth? I have put on soo much muscle & i weigh about 66 kg now (more than my tall friends) & im not fat at all. Has all the food (nutrients,protein etc) gone into developing muscle insted of going into height growth? Please answer these questions because if i stop now i might be able to grow more. If you did weight lift through out your teens can you tell me how tall you were & how tall you are now?
Oh yea & my mum is 5 ft 6, my dad is about 5 ft 7 & all my uncles, & grandpa are 5 ft 10 & above
